The Art of Mylkichoco

Yami(?) by Mylkichoco

An artist in the modern 'painterly' style with shading in angular 'planes', very sophisticated.

This simple bondage image appeals to me immensely, no least for the slightly spiky, mature-looking face and fantasy hair-styling. He's also shown below striking a sexy pose (which might be what got him into this fix!). As with many modern artists, Mylkichoco is strongly influenced by games characters which gives him some latitude when creating images of them

The attribution of Yami to this character may not be correct


Open shirts do it for me (assuming there's something interesting underneath of course) and I love the tears in his shoulder sleeve here as he pulls it off - shades of The Incredible Hulk only this guy's more attractive. The glimpse of underwear and very low-rise pants (including a nicely bulged crotch) makes this picture more deliberately erotic than it seems at first sight.

That tight biceps fit reminds me of one of my first sightings of a Cop when visiting the US, I was amazed that his muscles really were as big as a Tom Cop and his shirt just as tight. How are they allowed to walk round like that?

 


There's just a suggestion of bondage in this image, which is apparently of a captive waiting to find out what's to be done with him. There's not a lot of conviction in the scenario, compared with the concentrated effort that's obviously gone into detailing his face and muscular body. 

This artist often shows neck tattoos which I believe identify the name of the character. There's a variant of this picture called 'One Step Closer' which shows one of the two symbols crossed out as though an identity change has been surgically inflicted on him, you can see a clue to that in the background here, intriguing!



This tentacle image is unusual in that the victim is strikingly handsome in the modern style and has also been allowed retained his trousers, nicely peeled open at the fly with interesting contents lower down. There are nude variants of this image but the pose is rather rigid and doesn't convey any great sense of alarm or pleasure. You get the impression that this is a fan-art exercise with a celebrity head grafted onto a standard fetish experience. Fun for the artist in his imagination but not entirely attention-grabbing for us.

 


By contrast this vanilla image of 'Professor Redfield' (related to Chris?) is much more interesting. The adage that no-one makes passes at men who wear glasses is thoroughly discredited here, but it takes good artistic observation to spot the 'right' glasses to work this magic. The dusting of body hair is delicious (although I confess I find looking at such adornments rather more exciting than chewing on them). You can find a lot of similar 'pin up' images by this artist on the net but this one has more character than most of them. It's a great picture and it makes me long to see more of this man in action of some sort (not necessarily sexual).



This is a different character 'David Grau', the artist's OC (own character, his avatar). I sense a photographic foundation behind this image but the artist's embellishments have made it his own and  it conveys a great sense of sexy playfulness that makes you want to meet him! The empty condom wrapper might mean he's run out or maybe he's already put it on, ready!



In 'Bros' Mylkichoco has got two men embracing and it's no mean feat to pull off the interweaving of limbs and bodies as convincingly as this. The first impression is of buddies playfully wrestling and the lifted tee shirt and glimpse of pubic hair give it an erotic tang. However the serious expression of the carrier (and the rather ill-defined bulge at his crotch) suggests that this might be more intimacy than he actually wants. Alternatively, this is something completely different, the pathos deriving from a rescue situation, where he has the responsibility of getting his injured friend safely home.

 


For an artist greatly influenced by fantasy and gaming it's only appropriate to finish with his depiction of the original superhero and it's one that brings back the youthful 'jock' handsomeness and charm that characterised the original comics and Christopher Reeve's interpretation. I love that cute nose! The artist has coupled that look with the stylish and subtly-toned 'armour' of present day films.

 The only site I can find for this artist is Mylkichoco @Tumbex - which is mostly vanilla with some amusing captioned photos as well. I feel sure he must be producing more adventurous art somewhere, perhaps under a different name, but I haven't succeeded in finding it yet!

You'll find plenty of examples of his work using a search engine
