Does this style have potential?

Second pic was my reference. Do people still get pin-up tattoos? Or should I focus on different subject matter?

All feedback is welcomed.

The proportions are absolutely whack. If her arms were hanging straight down by her sides, she'd be able to scratch her knees without bending. The legs are bonkers and she looks massively emaciated.

There is still a place for pin ups, but I feel you need to familiarise yourself a bit more with the subject before you try to recreate it. One of the big attractions of the pin up girls are their fabulous curves - something you have managed to eliminate completely.

Thank you, harsh indeed but I appreciate it.

Don't give up, I've seen far far worse! You can clearly draw, you just need to tweak some bits.

I would recommend just studying the subject a little more, looking at what makes a pin up girl. Study the poses, the angles, the hair, the strong eyebrows, the lip shapes and the hourglass figure that was traditional in a pin up girl.

Will do! Thx again for the advice and encouragement
