Tuxedo Corset / Smoke Break Pinup
Kept rolling with the fancy corsets and settings. I was going to do more of a ballroom kind of shot with a tuxedo-themed corset, but then I found a great shot of this dilapidated wood staircase and though a smoke break with a cigar would suit it much better.
More Tumblr-inspired images.
I’ve also come up with possibly the best name for a pin-up series/studio. Maybe if I do enough of these I can compile them or something.
Bows and Corsets Pinup
First full picture I’ve finished from scratch since the last page of the comic in November. Whew!
I’ve done this kind of pinup a lot the last year - I’ve grown a love of vintage wallpaper and furniture and fashion/lingerie to match up with my love of pinups and curvy ladies and corsets. Also, really love drawing super-thick legs.
This was inspired solely by browsing through corset and burlesque groups on Tumblr.
If only I could write a story that involved nothing but vintage wallpaper, rooms, and corsets. That would be pretty awesome, but it would probably take five years to draw.
(Also worth noting that this isn’t Charlie. Sure it’s basically her body, AND it’s a red-head, but I just like drawing that shape, and this doesn’t really suit her.)
