Title: 1940's Influenced Pin Up
Post by: photoshow on August 15, 2008, 21:40

Today at Vegas Vision Studios (http://www.vegasvisionstudios.com) we went in a bit of a different direction. We took inspiration from an original 1940's illustration by Zdzislaw Beksinski and created our own take on the Pin Up Zombie. Your thoughts are appreciated

Yea I suppose it would have helped to explain it better. Other then the first shot which was the one the model insited she had to recreate we tried to take it in a Grind House Movie direction. A little graphic novel mixed with a lot of campy color.

I suppose I would have actually put real stockings on her, like in the image.  The painted on bit looks a bit odd.  Relatively speaking.

Yea I kind of agree but the idea was to recreate the illustration. The original image is a painting not a photo. Unfortunately our body painter was not as experianced as the original painter.

With the exception of her panties all the clothing is paint
