Here's hoping Glen Brogan gives us a 'Video Game Console Guys' calendar in 2015

So, artist Glen Brogan (aka Albino Raven) recently decided to concoct a calendar that features female pin-ups "inspired by the design aesthetics of classic video game consoles."


A few of the consoles that inspired Brogan while he illustrated the above-mentioned pin-ups: Atari 2600, Commodore 64, Game Boy, NES, Sega Master System, SNES, Vectrex and Virtual Boy.

The final product is 8.5 inches by 11 inches in size and can be purchased at albinoraven.com for just $20 (plus shipping).


As much as I like Brogan's style, and as much as I support this particular endeavor, I really hope that next year he gives us a similar calendar featuring male pin-ups.

    I second that one. It would replace the Men of Hawaii calendar on my wall. lol

    A guy version, Justin, or this female-focused one? I'm guessing the latter ;)

    The guy one, although this female one is pretty cute. I like a pin-up. (maybe that's surprising considering the oversexualization I'm opposed to)

    I thought so. Like you, though, I even like this female version. I doubt I'll buy it, but I still like it.

    I have a buddy stationed there. He sent three different calendars of Hawaiian dudes, so each month I choose the best-looking one to display. lol
