 Hand-painted 1960s pulp fantasy magazine illustration, gouache and ink on illustration board, depicting a dramatic mid-action sword-and-sorcery scene in a pre-industrial fantasy world. No modern technology or modern materials of any kind. Characters wear leather, cloth, fur, or primitive metal armor; weapons are swords, spears, shields, axes, or crude magical artifacts. Architecture and environments are ancient, ruined, or organic—stone, wood, bone, or natural formations only.

 Expressive, slightly imperfect anatomy with confident but uneven draftsmanship; heroic proportions that are exaggerated rather than anatomically precise. Faces show tension, fear, or determination mid-moment, not posed heroically. Visible brush strokes, uneven paint application, and selective detailing—some areas overworked, others loosely suggested.

 Limited, compressed color palette with muddy brick reds, dusty gray-blue shadows, olive and sickly greens, desaturated flesh tones, and a warm yellowed paper influence. No pure whites; highlights appear chalky and absorbed into the surface. Colors feel mixed physically, not digitally balanced.

 Composition feels rushed and commercial, designed to sell a pulp magazine under deadline pressure. Slightly awkward cropping, foreground clutter (weapons, limbs, foliage, debris) partially obscuring figures, background minimally rendered and impressionistic. Lighting is illustrative and simple, not cinematic, with no rim lighting, volumetric light, or modern contrast logic.

 Image appears pre-degraded for reproduction: subtle color bleed, mild ink misregistration, offset lithography imperfections, and low-fidelity pulp print texture baked into the image. The illustration should feel tactile, physical, and imperfect—clearly hand-made and intended for cheap mass printing, not digital concept art.

 No modern elements. No modern clothing. No modern materials. No modern design language.
 No text, no typography, no captions, no logos, no lettering of any kind.
