Poster sized pictures of pretty girls pinned up on a wall / door /
something, hence the term pinup. Chalking it up on the nose of
aircraft also qualifies but I doubt you will do that:) Look up some
photos of Bettie Page for example. Having cars in it is a subgenre.
You might want to use older cars
I agree in regard to the cars. Fifties and forties American for an authentic
pin-up look. Haven't given much thought to the light, but I would think you
want to achieve a look that invokes illustration, per Vargas.

Paul, we were already incorporating some anachronistic elements (like

Thanks, Ken. The reason the big icicles were at this location is
because this roof in not atop an attic. this portion of the roof is
over and overhang, and further back over the garage.
In any event, the icicles came and left quickly, during a short period
