my hubby is getting a new tattoo of me as a pin up girl, he has most of his forearm to work with, so looking for a pose that would be good for me to be in. The space he has would pretty much work best with a long or standing pose, he also comments all the time on how much he loves my long legs so wanna accentuate that. my hair will be down veronica lake style and would like to be wearing shorts or bathing suit bottoms with tube top style top, any ideas on what would be a good pose? pics would be helpful.
Thanks!

Check this link out. It's fairly complete. You should definitely be able to find something similar to what you'd like. The artwork is copyrighted but with a few little changes here and there i.e. different outfits, different face, you can avoid copyright infringement.

I love the idea of pinup tattoos!
For more ideas, just google up Alberto Vargas or Gil Elvgren. Those guys were big fans of the leggy gals

great ideas, thanks for all of your help. i really love the pics posted as i am built more like these pin ups girls, i am not nearly as well endowed on top like many of the ones i have seen, so the ones you posted are great since they are of smaller busted models on the slimmer (rather than overly curvy) side, much like i am built. i will show them to my hubby and see what he likes and i will post the finished product when he gets the work done!

Can't wait to see the work- I'm sure you'll make a smashing pinup!

Antje, as much as I love tattoos, I'm such a wuss when it comes to pain. I waited three years in between getting mine. Mostly to forget how much it hurt!
But if it's something you love, it's worth it imo.

I can't find any pics, but considering that you want it to fit on a forearm, I think the classic ankles crossed, arms above your head would be good. Puts the focus on the legs and because it's fairly linear, your legs aren't going to disappear around the side of his arm.

Be sure to see this fellow's work. I want a tattoo of one of his pinups.
