  1. That's why I suspect that Matt Baker took in count her in some occasions at time to draw some characters. However other sources said that he was influenced by artist like Alex Raymond and Milton Caniff who were using models who looked like some of Matt Bakers female characters, in special the model who possed for the character of Miss Lace. Other sources just stablished that Baker came from the generation of those artists but he knew how to glow with his own style and I agree with this of course. This is Milton Caniff drawing Miss Lace with his model
  2. Yes of course, you were clear in your post. The american version was first.
  3. A greek descendent artist who lived in NYC. He has a lot of interesting works of art.
  4. I thought that the woman in the first paint was Dorothy Lamour but she had a different smile. That first woman is Beryl Wallace a singer and dancer from USA
  5. In reality, the pick of Jane Russell that I posted was of her first movie in 1943 where she curiously, played the role of "Rio McDonald". It's obvious that "the comic "Señorita Rio" is a clear wink to that character of Russell. Just take a view. The wonderful picture that you have posted here is an inspiration of that first movie of Russell too In that movie Jane Russell was approximately 22 years old.
  6. I know that, but my question was if anybody have any reference about Matt Baker taking in count a famous actress or model at the time to design Rulah's face... For example, this is a draw of 1946 from the book "The art fo Glamour". I find it similar to the actress Jane Russell, despita somebody could find it similar to Rita Hayworth
  7. I have noticed, or at least it's my sensation, that Matt Baker/Kamen Rulah has too much in common with the actress Jane Russel. Does anybody know if Baker took her in count at the time to create Rulah's aethetic?
  8. Jusr seeing Rulah's face I come across with a doubt: Do you have any idea about if Matt Baker or even Jack Kamen were inspired in her design by any famous actress of that moment? I find Rulah's face a little similar, to Jane Russell or even Rochelle Hudson... Jane Russell
