Playboy Grannies :)

I was shuffling some files around another day, and found a whole bunch of old vintage playboy pinups.
A few of them still looked awesome, so I had a stab at drawing them.
While doing it, I realized that the end result was not that important, as I got heaps of fun and satisfaction just from sketching them in my sloppy style.
I tried to spend as little time as possible doing them since I did not want to repeat struggle and tediousness of getting stuff right from my previous attempts.
The end result is (quite) a bit rough around the edges, anatomically incorrect even with my shitty distorted way of representing pretty ladies and as I said before- sloppy, but I like them.
Anyhow, while drawing them, I thought about these ladies and where they are nowdays, and my rough estimate is that they would be in they late fifties if not older, hence the silly title.
Anyhow, I am too tired to continue, so here's the sketch.

Cheers to all who visit,

Milenko

Man that's Yummy...and the Bebe Buell...I loved her (and I think every rock musician did too...Steven Tyler for sure)!

Awesome Milenko!

I don't know if everybody realize the kind of ability it's needed to obtain this photorealistic result with that "Milenko effect" in heads, eyes and mouths. And you say you tried to spend as little time as possible doing it! Loved the one at right and the way the clothes slip down her arm.

Thanks for the kind words guys :)
Vince, I did not know her name until you've mentioned it. Thanks for that.
It only shows how shallow I am and how little research I do.
Anyhow, Since you've mentioned it, I did a bit looking around and found some much better images of her, which I may or may not visit in the future (purely depending on my levels of "keen")
Oscar, you're too kind. I mostly fudge and smudge, and sometimes, nice stuff comes out of it. But I do have a clear idea what sort of distortion I want to put in before I start, it's just that sometimes it looks nice in my head but turns into something ugly and ridiculous on paper.
Patrick, I am really happy to have you stopping by, you are one of my biggest inspirations. And if my work pleases you, it makes me very very happy :)
I still have a long way to go, and I am getting really, really tired.

Thanks to all for visiting once again,

Regards,

Milenko
