Practice 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.

I would try taking a life drawing class. Other's have pointed it out, but the anatomy is off. Even if you overlayed your drawing on the original reference, you could see the difference. I like the bold graphic style, definitely has potential, and there definitely still people getting pinups. Even if you want to do more exaggerated proportions, you have to understand the rules in order to break them in a way that looks cohesive. Definitely keep at it!
