Halloween is coming up and it’s time to
get horrifically sexy with a look at the
pinups of horror television (and one movie).
And ask a few questions about what it all
means?
Lust and fear come
together in the horror entertainment
industry. Basically, where there’s a
scary monster, you’ll find a beautiful
lady, making for a good star-crossed
lovers tale. Many times, however, you’ll
find the lady is actually the monster,
claiming archaic ideas that a woman’s
lust is a dark desire that will consume
you. All this and so much more
allegories, in The Pinup Blog’s
Halloween special.
The good folks at
American
Apparel bring you a very retro
Halloween 2009. Costumes look comfy, sexy
and affordable and could probably be
easily converted to snazzy street clothes
after the after party. I especially love
this simple Cabaret costume. If you’ve got
the legs for it, go for it!

One of my favorite
creators at DeviantART, Elias
Chatzoudis, has just created this
little busty statement, in favor of breast
cancer awareness, missing my
article by less than a week. So I
decided to pay him tribute, after the
fact. It’s a beautiful cartoon pinup and
deserves our awareness.

This was not the first time men had
admired pin-ups of physically non-existent
fantasy women, but certainly the first time
they would ogle a 3D
representative.
Although
video game pin-ups have existed since
the revival of interest in consol games,
in the mid 1980s, most consisted of
cartoonish depictions of various scenes
representing the game’s story line; Such
as Nintendo’s hero, Link, from the
popular Legend of Zelda franchise,
slaying a multi-headed dragon, or a
whimsical forest scene of Sega’s Sonic
the Hedgehog. The classic pin-up genre
featuring suggestively posed women was
introduced to video game art posters in
1996 with the inception of the British
company, Eidos’s Tomb Raider series,
starring who can now be credited as the
first massively popular digital sex
icon, Lara Croft.
Iman Woods is a
brilliant, self-taught pinup artist.
Starting with a quality photo shoot and
then painting the pinup, Iman hopes to
inspire you to love yourself a little.
Among other things, Iman gets a Pinup Blog

fantastic pregnant pinups. Beautiful
imagery with that retro elegance, go have
a look!

It’s my favorite day
of the year, again! Nope, not Earth
Day- it’sBlog Action
Day! A day of
concentrated activism for bloggers all
over the world, and I’m ecstatic to be
one of over 13,000 registered blogs.
Last year we concentrated our collective
efforts on
poverty, the year
before that- the first Blog Action Day- was
generally about the
environment. This year, we
deal with climate change:
From my
environmental search, two years ago, the
pinup world seemed almost oblivious to
the environment, but this year, I was
elated to discover the gorgeous and
diverseVegan
Vixens(newest on the
sidebar). Self-dubbed eco-entertainers,
the Vixens work to educate about
environmental issues such as animal
welfare, the vegan lifestyle, and climate
change. And they do it all through
burlesque and pinup styled photoshoots!
For you eco-pinup
lovers, Here’s a behind the scenes look at
their calender shoot:
Breast cancer isn’t a very lighthearted
theme, but if there’s one theme that’s
perfect for pinups, it’s their tits. This
week (this month to be exact) on The Pinup
Blog: Pinups and breast cancer
awareness!
Rethink Breast Cancer
Starting out with a little retro fun, here is
Rethink
Breast Cancer’s ad for the Fashion
Targets Breast Cancer t-shirt. Both
organizations are aimed at young adults;
While Rethink Breast Cancer are
responsible for some controversial
ads, Fashion Targets Breast Cancer
have super-model spokeswomen, the likes
of Gisele Caroline Bündchen and Claudia
Schiffer.
Whether you’re an aspiring burlesque starlet,
or just want to shimmy & shake at your
leaser, Amazon is a great place to start a
burlesque music collection. Above, a few fine
finds.

tattooed and pierced young men, with an
artistic twist, you’ll love KrautBoys.
