Kat Power



Kat Von D might get a lot of criticism in the tattoo world, but some of her portraits are still phenomenal. These are two of my favourites of hers, Sharon Tate and Eliza Dushku respectively.

Dead Sexy


I love this Zombie Marilyn Monroe, done by Jason Butcher. Marilyn is probably one of the most popular icons for pinup tattoos, even entering the world of celebrity, on Megan Fox(y), below. Although for some reason she didn't go for the zombie option.

Holy Smoke


Nice and Simple from Jason Vaughan

Pig Out!





I thought Cornfed's best work was in Duckman, but since that got cancelled he's obviously sidelining in a bit of inkslinging.

We've gone international!


This zombie lady was sent to me by tattooist Julia Seizure from Star Crossed Tattoo in Hong Kong, done at the Singapore convention. Thanks!

Johanna Bluebird puts her unique spin on a couple of Gil Elvgren pinups.

A Black And Grey pinup-fest!

I got a great email from Ruben, who has a nice collection of pinup tattoos done by some top-class artists.

This beautiful Pearl Frush lady was done by Steve Soto from Good Fellas Tattoo Shop, Orange, CA.


The Gil Elvgren Piece above was done by Tom Clarke at Ace's High in Fullerton, CA.


Also by Tom Clarke, the Marilyn Monroe portrait above.


And this is how they tie together! Some wicked ink there, thanks!

May your hell be a green one!


This Joe Capobianco Poison Ivy can also be found on our sister site, Batman Tattoos!

Wetz and Wild!


This cute little girl was done by Robert Wetzel.

Buick Regal!




A tattooist submission! Sunny Buick sent some nice old school ladies...

Eyes In The Back Of My ...Neck?


Such a great idea for placement, this black and grey Ryan Hadley piece is certain an eye-catcher, pardon the pun.

Jeff Gogue does Alfons Mucha, with great effect!
