pin up up date

Here is another one of the beautiful Miss Amanda Lee to add to the pin up files.  Just finished the retouches on this one early this morning and just in time to share with you all today.  Miss Amanda and I are hopefully going to be setting up another shoot in October down at the Pima Air Museum in Tucson, AZ.  Starting in a couple of weeks, I’m lining up the next series of pin up shoots with some  fabulous pin up style models.  First will be Miss Penny Von Luck, we’ll be doing a shoot out at Edwards AFB towards the end of this Month, and we have been putting together this big shoot for quite some time!  Also this month, if time will allow, Miss Pin Up Fal from San Diego and I are going to try and do a Navy themed shoot.  In late August, plans are being finalized for a fun shoot with Jess Robinson at the Thompson Aviation scrapyard, and September photo shoots are being set up with Lisa Marie, Due Volte D, and Mandallily.  Below are some pictures from their portfolios, and I am looking forward to working with these talented models!!!  I talked my beautiful wife Tara into doing a pin up shoot for me, and that is one I just can’t wait to do, hopefully in early September!!!!!  So stay tuned for more vintage pictures and retro nose art.

#64 Chosen Realm, those crazy Triannon ships!!

Enterprise Episode 64 called upon a race of beings called the Triannons, and with this new race came the opportunity to come up with a new ship.  There were a lot of fun ideas that came to be on this one, and there was very little pressure from the top on determining the look, so the wild ideas flowed freely for a couple of days.  Some of these ship ideas follow traditional ST lines, but a couple went pretty far outside the safe zone and really made for lots of doodling fun.  One version even went down the big mouth bass style of architecture, but in the end, the one that I thought for sure would get the boot made it as the chosen idea.   Here are the roughs, and one of the rejects went on to be a ship in another episode down the line.  $5 and a Sioux City Sarsaparilla to whoever can name that ship and episode????  To wrap out the ship of the day, there are some CG model images by the incredible Mr. Pierre!  Have a great Wednesday!!!
