I received a comment from the web-ed of the Chicago Spanking Review about my last post, which I called, "The Target". He pointed out that it looked a lot like a recreation of a drawing done by pin-up artist Gil Elvgren. He was also nice enough to send a copy of the drawing along.
First, here's the photo I used. I had cropped it a bit for the previous post, but here it is in full:

Next, here's the pin-up postcard by Elvgren, titled Near Miss:
What do you think? To me, with the exception of the positioning of the right arm, I'd have to say that the web-ed has a keen eye (not to mention a keen memory) and is right on the money....

I have to agree with Web_Ed of the C.S.R. that the image you posted is no doubt inspired by the Gil Elvgren "Near Miss".
I am a big fan of Elvgren and caught the similarity right away.
The particularly interesting thing to note is that this a recent reproduction/inspiration. The clue to this is based on the current pop-cuture fascination with zombies; as this is a zombie pinup. Look closely and you will see the gory effect on her right arm (thus the intentional difference).
