Photobooth Fridays, No. 25


I just can't get enough Madman! Hopefully you feel the same, because today we'll be looking at a pinup I did in 2009 of Madman's main squeeze, Josephine Lombard--


--As portrayed by longtime pal 'o mine (since high school!), Kayleen. Kayleen did an awesome job modeling here, lending just the right amount of womanly-ness to Joe.


And speaking of 'womanly-ness', check out these AWESOME reference photos taken by classic pinup artist, Gil Elvgren.

Cover four of Star Wars: Knight Errant!

Okee Doke. That's all for now. Have a good weekend, folks!
