Reaperbryan Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 Black T-shirts as a rule have been more consistently popular than any other color we've attempted. We will most likely be offering the ReaperCon T in Black again this year. And yes, We've had complaints about Sophie in years past being Demonic/Evil, Sexist/Demeaning and so on. We receive the occasional complaint about corrupting the youth, but we try to just take it in stride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shakandara Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 It wouldn't even have to be full UL, IMO. Just less cloth would work too . ~v Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ixminis Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 Some of us started out corrupt If we are voting for colors, how could this years shirt NOT be done in olive drab? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heisler Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 Because bomber crews didn't wear olive drab. Dark Brown leather jackets and tan shirts. As long as she's on the shirt I'll wear no matter what color it is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ixminis Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 Sure sure, I was just thinking that we could all pretend we were the bombers.... eeeerrrooooww taka taka taka taka.....eeeeeeeeeeee!!! go the bombs? ***edit - found a linky that supports both colors!!! http://www.303rdbg.com/nored01a.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heisler Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 So now I get to play historical snob. None of the gentlemen in that photograph are wearing WWII uniforms. The ladies are though. You are looking more for something like this: Briefing Room Or this Original Crew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slidedog Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 I'd like to suggest a 54mm version of this one. A bit more scantily clad perhaps. Andrea has been doing a larger scale pin-up series that is a lot of fun and I believe is selling well. I'd love to add Sophie to the case I'll have for pin-ups "soon", (like years from now). Obviously leaves open the possibility of an UL version as has happened in the larger scales in the past. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helltown Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 Well... I'm of the mind that she's got just the right amount of clothes on to suit the time period. The idea with pin-up girls was there had to be a tease, leave something to the imagination of the viewer, a girl might be nekkid, but she's facing away in the picture or she's sitting demurely with her arms folded across her chest. Nose art of the time mirrored the pages of Wink!, Flirt, and other pin-up mags of the era. Basically, pin-up girls are proof that a little imagination can go a long way so use yours a bit.

She's still not showing quite enough skin, since it looks likes she still wearing her standard gear under the flight jacket. For a true tease there wouldn't be anything but skin under that jacket. We really need to show you a lot more nose art, not all of it was a tease, depended on the artist(s) in the squadron. There are quite a few very topless women on bomber noses.
