the healing power of boobies ...

For me, those characters seem to live and breathe, whereas lesser artists rely on bland, expressionless faces and stock poses meant to show off T and A. There's a lot more to a great pinup than that, which is why I have to give Hughes and co. the edge.

I'm amazed that y'all can have this "healing power of boobies..." discussion about the female form without giving equal opportunity to discuss the artistic expression of the male form - which would be what in this scenario: "the healing power of pecs...?" Or would you prefer not to give equal commentary on the whole "male pinup" art movement that ran concurrent to the popular "boob" pulp fiction/comic book covers of the previous century?

Personally, the male form isn't quite as pleasing as the female form when put into art. In person, oh yes. For instance, I have a weakness for men in grey hoodies wearing Carhartt duck overalls, preferably walking away. -swoon- If someone could capture that on paper so I could see it all year instead of just during winter, that would be great.

*cough* I forget myself. Anyway, yeah. Girls > boys in every way.

Now now Vivace, some of us have kids... mine are old enough to see this thread. But ya never know - thus the 2 Click rule, which ummm CR already violated on page 2, and didn't get trolled about. But heck, I think everything Implicit Bookcarrier even talks about is a 2 Clicker... lololol. This thread has merit if not for the ridiculous title, it might even get respect.

Though after reading Dark Forgiven's post, I am highly tempted to sketch up a page of bewbs...

Edit: make pin ups? you mean muscle poses?

The_Foo · 12-01-2009 11:35 AM

Well, the topic is clearly "boobies", so unless you have male pics that fit that category, maybe you could make a thread about delicious dudes. I'm sure you'll find takers.

Oh, I have a 3 year old who gleefully clicks on anything if I let her on my computer. She likes playing her Teletubbies game though. -twitch-

I'd be happy to list my personal favorite artists who specialize in drawing the male figure. Someone start the thread, and we'll get that conversation started.

..ok.. between the fact im posting it.. and that the title says "boobies" ... I think that ALONE makes at least 1 1/2 clicks right there..

..nothing wrong with the male form.. However..nude females are somewhat harder ta draw due to the curvy lines ..where as males can be done all angular..

You would think that. And for the 99% of the intelligent population, you would be right. But for that 1%...

bah..respect is overrated..

you could spend your life building up respect, and then have one event totally take all of it away..

ahhh.. but being a perv.. thats something NOONE can steal from you..

...and when drawing women.. often times its whats IMPLIED in the image, that makes it sexy..

a women in a full suit of tight leather with high heels and a hot pose is FAR more sexy then the same female just sitting there, plainly nude.

overall I think some of the sexyist drawings are the ones that leave the best parts up to your imagination..

and as for being a perv.. as long as Foo is here, im always gonna be second fiddle

Wow, that's a name I've not seen in a comic book in a long time. Probably not since Invincible Iron Man back in the early 70s.

Another good artist is Nate Van ****. (not posting a link this time due to not having been aware of the 2-Click rule, nor can I find it in the rules and guidelines) Just google him, he's the first name that pops up.

Just out of curiosity, can a Red Name confirm if that was some of his art in the Hero Con images I've seen?

(well, it's difficult when the name gets censored, here's the homepage, nothing obscene on that:

Apparently only half the links I posted violate the rules.

Also I have never had to make a "two click" link to something before... it took me a while to figure out
how to one click link stuff lol. So I guess I need to link to a site that shows nothing but
that links to another site with the "good stuffz" pic?

Ok I can kinda see the reason for it but if I was a teenage boy and presented with a "two click" obstacle
(or even a two hundred click obstacle), between me and boobies, it would hardly stop me from just clicking twice.

Maybe really young kids won't know you can click twice (though with all this talk of two click they know it now )
but then they probably shouldn't be roaming a thread about boobies (or the internet for that matter) unsupervised.

Then again maybe this is not the thread for sidetracking with making sense... carry on with the Boobage!

I'd just like to inform that person there are women in here too!
