For that last few decades (I'm 50 BTW), I've been nearly obsessed with pin-up art. What passed for porn in the mid-twentieth century was both an art form and a way to admire beautiful women in the clothing you never see them in outside of their bedrooms. Classic artist (Harry Ekman being my favorite from that era) and models like Bettie Page where breaking new ground back in the day, pushing the limits of the strict moral code at the time, even though they left nudity and sex out of the picture. I will never forget the moment in the movie "Patton" when George C. Scott, playing the title role, was doing an inspection of the barracks in his first command. He came accross a pin-up tacked to the wall, tore it down, and told the soldiers there that "This is a barrack, not a bordello." Indeed this refected the fact pin-up art made it's way around the world, carried by American soldiers into Europe and Asia, posted on the walls of their temporary wartime homes, and drawn on the noses of the large bomber aircraft of the time, much like Pearl on "The Lady of the Lake." in Fallout New Vegas.

But anyway, moving on...

Pin-up art of the late twentieth and early twenty first century is much more sexualized than it's predecessor. Yes, you still have good looking woman, wearing sexy outfits, but there is much more nudity and sexual content than what was found back when the artform was still new. Gone are the massive panties and bulky bras of yesteryear, replaced by more skimpy and revealing garments, many of which leaves little to the imagination.

I did the Mixed Pin-up Lingerie mod project because I wanted to dress the ladies in my game like pin-up models. I wasn't quite happy with what was avalable, taking issue with some aspect about everything I was downloading, I'd use the Geck, Nifskope and Photoshop to change them to what I wanted, that is the classic pin-up look in a modren form (I never did like the huge bras and panties women wore prior to the late twentieth century). Though it's starting off small, I hope to grow the collection over time. With ideas coming from players using the mod, my first "growth spirt" for this mod came to pass yesterday. I'll let this newest version sit for a bit while I look for and develope newer pieces to add to this collection. Hopfully soon, with ideas from the people who use the mod, a new version with more items will be made available.

    You're saying that you want to make vintage/classic styled (which is usually means not modern) pin-up costumes, but in modern style? I'd be happy to see some concept arts there. Because I'm picturing that you're going to replace current prostitute outfits with Bettie Page style costumes (what with pointy bras, long gloves, and so on). Not necessarily bulky panties though, but retain vintage vibe Fallout series is famous for.
     
    What will happen with "No Prostitute Change" option?

      Firstly, thanks for the Bettie link, I did enjoy the video and photos of her.

      This mod was made primarily for the user, so they can dress the ladies in their game in these outfits. It was never my intention to dress the Prostitutes of NV in anything other than what I put them in already. That was a small, fun bonus I put into this mod. When I realized however, there are other mods that change the clothing on NV Prostitutes, I decided to include an optional plug in (or .esp) that does not interfere with other mods that change the clothing on NV Prostitutes. Both this optional plug in and the outfits I put on the NV Prostitutes will remain intact.

      But using the Girls Gone Wild option is another matter. In this, I did intend to dress some of the female NPC's like pin-up lingerie models. Not necessarily like Miss Page, but you get the idea.

      If you'd like to see some concept art of what I mean, I suggest you start here. What I'm going for here is a pin-up style in a modern look, which is a departure from the vinatge/classic look you speek of.

      As for long gloves (and fishnets if you want them) you can get them here. The bullet bra was something I messed with but abandoned. It came out looking like a massive blob on a woman's chest that vaguely resembled a bra, and you could only tell it was a bullet bra if you looked at it on just the right angle. If someone else wants to work on one, I'd wish them luck and be the first try it once it came out.

    So you want to make a collection of vintage pin-up costume mods? Awesome! Definitely will wait for the release date I think it would be fantastic if you could replace the modern-looking Gomorrah Girls' costumes with 50's style lingeries

      Well, vintage pin-up costumes in a modern style. Like I said, the Bras and Panties worn prior to the nineteen seventies where ugly, big and bulky. I have no wish to reproduce that.

      The mod (without using the "No Prositute Change' option) changes the dancers and hookers of Gomorrah into one of three outfits. Is that what your talking about, or is there more to it?
