I'm looking to change my style to a 1950s rockabilly/pin-up look, but I'd like some more insight on the style, along with some resources. What are some sites that I should look at for inspiration?

That really depends on what you're going for. If you want a more classic feel, you might try looking at period pinups for inspiration.

There's an artist you might check out. His name is Vargas. Gil Elvgren might be another good one.

Here's a site that might be useful for you. Or you might just want to look at vintage pinups. *shrug*
