Thanks for the heads up! I love his Devil Girls - Very cool work. I'll definitely have a lot to look through here.

Very good call. I've been looking through tons of tattoos and they're just "not right" (if that makes sense) - I'll go through more source material. Plus, I don't mind an excuse to pick up more art books. Thanks for the links!!!

I love Elvgren's classic pin ups - That was our 2011 kitchen calendar and I'm currently looking for a 2012.

There's also Kirsten Easthope, who does modern pin ups - She does these hot "Crucichicks" that I'd love to get my hands on.

Thanks so much for the links! I know what I'll be doing today... ;)
