Girls, Girls, Girls album cover -- Nikki's legs

Post by War_in_D »

An iconic album cover to me. However, drives me crazy from time to time...as my mind tells me Niikki's right leg is positioned the same way as Vince's. But when I look closely, it isn't -- and it looks like his right leg is missing.

Is Nikki sitting cross-legged, then? Looks like he might be, but still looks weird by the way his torso is positioned.

Maybe he's just mounting his motorcycle...

Anyway, bugs the shit outta me every five years or so...

Definitely something is up with his leg. It’s totally photoshopped
The whole picture looks fake actually

It's a shitty old school airbrush effort, that's for sure. Nikki's leg looks like it's been hacked off.

Is he standing behind the bike with his legs far apart? That plank of wood-lookin' thingy he's grabbing on to doesn't seem to be part of the bike.

His leg is bent and you can slightly see his cowboy boot on the pedal thingy.
Wow, bored eh?

I've never paid enough attention to notice that before. Looks completely unnatural. Now I can't look away! Bwah!!!

I do see how his right foot is on the pedal. The woody looking thing is actually his leather pants. And you can see his boot on the pedal. Still looks crazy weird. As someone said, looks like a midget leg.

Meh.
What always looked weird to me was Keifer's leg on the Night Songs cover.
