AI art by Guy Winfield

Guy Winfield's art reproduces classic, 'guy in trouble' scenarios. 
That means there are lots of men tied up in their underwear.
All captions here have been added by me, but I link to the unaltered originals.

Guy Winfield - Unexpected Visitor

'The lone camper' is a theme that exploits isolation and vulnerability and draws on the horror library of rednecks who don't welcome uninvited guests. Sometimes the camp invader is a figure of authority or a lawman, enforcing the rules of a protected wilderness. It's not clear whether this man fits into that category, but his muscles and tattoos create an intimidating effect without any need for a uniform. It looks like the camper won't have the option of refusing his invitation anyway, and I dare say he won't be putting on his clothes for it either. 
 
There's another example of the genre in my post about tru3ai, also in otklad part 3, Stonecrooze and a video realisation starring Logan Vaughn in The Cabin. The take by Jonathan featuring camping buddies is one of my favourites.

Guy Winfield - Cop captives impersonated

The perils of the wilderness are not solely reserved for the young and fit (as was graphically demonstrated in 'Deliverance'). These two unfortunate cops seem to fall in-between those extremes. Their patterned underwear gives their plight a comic twist as the villains speed off in their uniforms and car. No doubt heading for a role-playing convention. If they had left the cops in their tighty whiteys or less, it would have created a very different effect. However, the men who roam these woods at night are probably not that discriminating.
 
 
Guy Winfield - No Trespassing

Both captor and captured alike in this variation seem to be dressed in military garb, which doesn't quite gel with the artist's title. Infiltration by the other side isn't usually regarded as trespass. Perhaps civilians who are caught on military land in these parts are punished by automatic induction into the armed forces. The camp guards must carry supplies of army underwear to get them started. I guess that's their civilian clothes going up in smoke in the background.
(or perhaps a companion who suffered an even worse fate, Sci-Fi style).
 
 
Guy Winfield - Overpowered Pilot

This is one of a series, which the artist seems to see as a hijacking scenario. Another uniform-based impersonation scam. However, there are rather dark associations with that since 9/11. My caption visualises a more frivolous scenario, the result of an on-line, Christmas shopping spree by a distant, very rich potentate.
 
 
Guy Winfield - The Real Guides (1)

 The artist has also produced a number of variations on this theme, based on the idea of villains stealing the uniforms of two safari guides, so that they can rob the tourists booked in for the trip. 
 
The image is capable of less innocent interpretations than that, of course. It looks as if these two men have been parcelled up and are waiting to be shipped out.
 
Guy Winfield - The Real Guides (11)
 
The crossed legs bondage in this variant is more severe and seems to imply more than simply detention and immobilisation. It's a punishment reminiscent of unethical POW treatment in some parts of the world. In the safari context, these men might be poachers, caught in the act and awaiting shipment to prison. Could be a bumpy ride.
 
 

  

Guy Winfield - The Real Guides (5)

This variation 
(see artist's unaltered original) seems to depart from the Guide impersonation scenario completely, unless this is an forlorn escape attempt to raise the alarm. 
 
It might be another poacher punishment, of course, but it reminded me of the 'Stud Hunt' scenario of Amalaric (see 'The Thrill of The Chase', image 507 onwards). 'The Hunt' (2020 movie) had a similar plot line. In my variation, the quarry is severely handicapped, suggesting near-certain capture by the pursuers. However, the hunting mode is non-lethal, so that the hunters can enjoy their catch afterwards, however they wish. 
 
There's a slightly edgier caption in my X-post from this group
 

 
Guy Winfield - Impersonated
 
This image of a delivery van being hi-jacked, and its driver stripped of his uniform, has created a splendidly dramatic underwear exposure.
 
However, I get the impression that this hijacker is going to take his captive with him - for his own private, nefarious reasons - or maybe to spare him the night terrors of the forest. He might even be on a mission, sent to collect this man who was caught by a male-order recruitment squad, while innocently walking his dog in the early morning. 
 
If you look closely, you'll see that the captive has an unusual, non-organic shape in his underpants, rather like the base of a well-known sex toy. That may provide an additional explanation of his discomforted expression. His introductory training has already started.

 

Guy Winfield - Stripped For The Uniform

Despite the title, it looks like this chap has been stripped for more than just his uniform. It certainly doesn't look like his attacker is about to leave without him. His fierce expression does not exactly suggest he's got everything he wanted. I don't suppose he wants to leave all that rope behind, either. 
 
It's possible that he has just informed his captive that the polka dot under-shorts will not be needed where they are going. It's no good, looking at us for help, mate. We don't like 'em either!
 
Guy Winfield -First Day in Detention

The artist's understated title here leaves the way open for the usual cracks about cute guys being popular in the prison - with the guards and with the scary inmates. The tape gags might be taken as a none too subtle hint of severe disciplinary standards within the walls, with no talking back tolerated. 

I wanted to find a different slant for my caption - see below.

 

Guy Winfield -First Day in Detention

Escape Rooms are supposed to be fun, bonding adventures according to the blurb. But what would happen if men with dubious motives got hold of the concept and made it rather more difficult? 

These three buddies were probably not expecting to be stripped like real convicts, but it really added atmosphere to their experience. The handcuffs and gags would obviously make puzzle-solving and collaboration more difficult but, hey, they were up for any challenge. Still, the electrified belts seemed a little unfair, they hadn't expected to be punished if they got the puzzles wrong or didn't behave as they had been instructed. 

It was only when they were locked up in separate, sound-proof cells that the truth began to dawn...... 

 

Guy Winfield - Arrested Gangsters

 These two, cute gangsters have come to the jail house dressed in rather nice matching shorts. Tape gagging arrested men isn't normal, but I expect they deserved it. It stops them getting the same story lined up. Could make for some interesting body searches and interviews too. No wonder their expressions are so grim!

 

Guy Winfield - Dutch Football Team in Trouble

 For some reason, soccer players don't have quite the same appeal to me as their burly rugby equivalents. Their shorts always contrive to disguise their undoubtedly chunky thighs. However, this image scores with its tight bondage, pec effects and with No 2's semi-excited reaction to being tied up. They are all peering up into the sky, as if a helicopter is coming in to land. Coming to take them away?

Lonely Departure


 It was his own fault. Jerry knew that failure to pay alimony to support the kids would incur a legal penalty. It was just that he always had something better to spend his money on. Once he lost his job, the authorities lost patience with him. 

He was ordered to work in the Penitential Labour Corps until the kids had grown up. That meant 13 years working for nothing except his keep, with all his 'pay' going straight to his ex-wife. It was a prison sentence really, he'd be held captive on a farm, in a factory or some other work complex, with conditions dependent on the whims of his employer. No time off or holidays either, unless his Master allowed it, but even then he'd not be allowed to leave the place.

It didn't matter if he liked the job he was given, he had to do it, and his Master would have a free hand to punish him if he slacked or misbehaved in any way. Punishments could be severe, limited only by the need to keep him productive - and some Masters were not even concerned about that. They had to pay the labour fees anyway, and regarded an hour giving a worker punishment as being 'training', an investment that would make him more productive. 

His 'sentence' would begin with an induction course on Hades Island, an old isolation prison just off the coast that had been recommissioned for the work programme. There he would learn correct behaviour before being allocated to his Master. It was public knowledge that the induction was tough. It had to be because many of the men sent on the programme were thoroughly bad lots. They often believed that if they were awkward or violent enough, they'd be sent to a conventional prison. It didn't work that way, The programme kept punishing them until they conformed, and only when they were deemed 'fit' for work would their actual sentence begin.

That was why Jerry obeyed his joining instructions to the letter. A friend had driven him to the remote jetty early in the morning and left him there in his underpants. He'd imagined there might be other men to waiting to be picked up too, but there was no one else. That gave him a few minutes to himself, standing on the wooden platform, enjoying the cool autumn air on his naked body. Then the distant sound of an engine reminded him that he must take off his underpants too, before the collection boat came into sight, lest they catch him disobeying the instructions. 

He dropped them into the wire mesh basket provided to keep the jetty tidy. There were a few other garments and belongings already in there. Anything of value would be taken by scavengers. For some reason, he'd put on a brand new, going-away pair of underpants that morning, someone might want to take them. 

Finally, he turned and walked slowly to the end of the jetty and nervously waited for the approaching boat, that would transport him to a new phase of his life.

Targeted - Home Alone

 
Home Alone
 

When he got a night to himself,
Travis liked nothing better than to shower off 
and lie on his bed to read a good book.

That was just how the two intruders found him.
They'd seen him at the gym and liked what they saw...

Travis never did get to the end of his book. 
But they both got to his end that night.

Naked Bondage Art by tru3ai - 3

Read this series from Part 1
 
tru3ai - Getting a Nice Tan

 At least he was until the Bondage Squad hit on him.
Unfortunately, their arrival seems to have cleared the beach.
No-one's rushing to rescue him, lest they suffer the same fate. 
Fortunately, he's well clear of the tideline,
 but I doubt he'll still be here come high tide, anyway. 
 
 
tru3ai - Left Alone in the Rain

 This image makes a dramatic contrast with the one above, showing how outdoors bondage is being affected by climate change. No, not really! Our Japanese friends have been exposing prisoners and slaves to the elements as a punishment for many years. Ideally, he should be nude, like the beach boy above.
 
This looks for all the world like a Jungle POW situation, but the prisoner is actually dressed in leather pants. Perhaps it's one of those bondage camp festivals, ruined by the rain. This chap won't be thanking anyone if his leathers get ruined by sitting in a puddle too long. That's a punishment that really hurts a Leatherman. You can understand why they wanted to tie him up, though.
 
 
tru3ai - Left Alone

 This picture has a similar title to the last one, but the captive here is left in the dark. The anxiety and fear on his face tells us he's a recent capture, still trying to come to terms with his unexplained abduction. The ball gag with its jaw-tightening chin strap must be painful. It's a stark message about the ruthlessness of his abductors. 
 
The removal of his clothing conveys a similar message. It makes it clear that it's him they want, not the ransom they can get for him. They've left a flannel in his lap as sop to his modesty and to mop up his sweat, which he's overproducing in panic mode. 
 
I visualise this man as a rich, city type, watching his suit and every other stitch of clothing disappear. It will soon dawn on him that they are gone for good. That might be him on the left, in the picture below, before fickle fate cruelly turned on him.
 
 
tru3ai - Gentle Touch

 I suppose there are great advantages to being purchased by a City Trader. They are rich and value expensive possessions. However, this captive jock looks pretty suspicious about the promises being made to him. Gentle touch indeed! Perhaps he realises that, deep down, a trader is a trader and that he himself is now tradeable. The flattering price this man paid for him confirms that.
 
 When his bodily beauty fades, his value will drop, and he'll become available to men with less money and fewer scruples. A body slave has to live for the hour, but if he's lucky and clever, his inner qualities can become valued, so that when age makes itself known, it might not matter to his master.  
 
 
tru3ai - Nice Stretch

Even the most benevolent of owners will still want to do things with their slave, to demonstrate their control over him. This restraint is satisfying to set up and practical in purpose. It will amuse the captive and keep him out of mischief while the Master is out at the Office, earning their keeps. 
 
Slaves get their board and lodging free, technically speaking. But, it's not cheap, they must be given a good diet and exercise to preserve their looks and their value. If they are cute and clever, they'll worm their way into the Master's confidence and comfy bed. Nevertheless, it is to be expected that they will still try to escape if they get the chance. 
 
This parking arrangement prevents that, and by the end of the day will be a painful reminder of how vulnerable he is if he displeases 'He, who must be obeyed'.  
 
 
tru3ai - Let's Go To Your New Home

 Even the humblest or most resentful of slaves must feel a spark of excitement when the uncertainty of The Auction is over, and they get to meet their new owner for the first time. For the new owner, it's the culmination of an exciting process that began when he spotted the man in the pre-sale showing. Excitement peaked again when his winning bid saw off the competition, and now he gets it all again as he finally takes the slave's chain and leads him away. 
 
 This slave's preparation regime has produced a spectacular physique, but it must have been a spartan existence, judging by the sackcloth skirt he wore for the Sale. To be honest, some agencies dress the men like this to give the impression that they are rough and tough, when really they are soft, ex-accountants or shop workers. There's no telling, you have to treat what the sale catalogue says with a pinch of a salt.
 
If the slave looks dazed, that's probably because he's been sedated to inhibit bad behaviour during the sale process. Then again, he might be genuinely delighted to have been acquired by a handsome and (obviously rich) young man. Maybe he's confused, having been trained for farm work only to discover that his new life will be as a gentleman's servant. 
 
 
tru3ai - Enjoying Himself

Being a slave isn't like a normal job. The first steps are familiarisation with new quarters and an attitude assessment with his new owner. He has to get used to being tied up in the style favoured by his Master, because he's going to spend a lot of time like that in the years ahead. In fact, it may just be beginning to dawn on him that this is his life from now on. All of it.
 
This one's lucky, his new owner obviously thinks he's sweet. That won't last, of course, but his pre-sale course should have prepared him for that. His challenge is to covert that initial appeal into a lasting love. Not romantic love of course, but the love for a favourite possession or pet, which is much more durable.
 
 
tru3ai - Hogtied on a Table

A house slave's life is not easy. He will have chores to do, and there's a good chance that a private owner's hobbies will make demands on him. If his physique is attractive, the Master may enjoy making him into a plaything or a piece of living art to be shown off at parties or exhibited at conventions. 
 
Paradoxically, a good bondage exhibit is expected to struggle and show resentment, attitudes that his Master would not tolerate in any other scenario. Acting angry is made easier if visitors take advantage of his nakedness to probe and grope, or stroke and slap. Even so, it's a psychological minefield for an ordinary guy. At times, he will wish he had been chosen for the simple life of a field slave or a quarry hand, shifting rocks. But if he misbehaves, he may find out that that option isn't any easier. 
 
 
tru3ai - Rope Struggling

 They also serve who only stand and wait. So Milton said, and it's true. A nice physique wrapped in tight bondage is as decorative as the finest of artworks and gives both parties a rewarding feeling of ownership. It's easy to overlook the fact that he's neglecting his normal duties. I love the simplicity and strength of this bondage.
 
 
tru3ai - Tied to a Wall
 
In domestic situations, a slave can attain the status of a much loved pet. Bondage isn't a punishment for him, it's a sensible precaution to keep him safe while his Master is away. A gag ensures he's not a nuisance for the neighbours. The bonds that form between such men make for reunions that are joyful on both sides, but some slaves left alone may experience nagging fears of being abandoned. A good Master takes care to give them reassurance and affection when he comes home.   
 
 
tru3ai - Hogtied on a Table

There's a dinner party on tonight, and so the Master's getting in extra waiting staff. Here they are, waiting in the kitchen, ready to be served up with the coffee. The agency supplies them ready trussed and dressed in cute, leather shorts, a dress code, so everyone understands what they are allowed to do to them. Breakages have to be paid for (or suitable replacements provided).

Naked and body-shaved, ready for shipment.
Joey's soccer career is over. 
 
Going Nowhere by tru3ai
caption by mitchmen

 It's interesting to discover how other people earn their money.
Sometimes it's quite a surprise.
As Kyle found, when his hard-up flatmate revealed all. 
 
 
Hog tied in the Rainy Forest by tru3ai

Early morning joggers are especially vulnerable to amateur trappers. 
They loiter in quiet locations frequented by keep-fit runners.
Having snared a suitable candidate, they send for the big boys. 
Sometimes it's hard to get a convenient pick-up slot.
Still, he isn't going into work today, so he won't mind waiting. 
 
 
Chillin' in the Rain by tru3ai

Dylan had been out in the garden for over an hour, 
His boyfriend had an important report to finish for work,
and didn't want any interruptions.
Well, he'd certainly made sure of that.  
And then it started to rain.
 
 
Fun in the Woods by tru3ai

Jackson had a wicked streak in him. 
He liked to prowl the woods posing as a Redneck in search of lone campers who he could terrorise, like in the movies. When he spotted two city dudes with expensive camping gear,
he licked his lips in anticipation of the fun he could have.
 
But as soon as he revealed himself and started making dark threats, they attacked and felled him with a barrage of punches. Now they were discussing whether he would be a 'keeper'. 
 
Jackson didn't like to think about what the alternative was. 
  
 
Hog Tied with Muzzle by tru3ai
 
As day broke and warm sunlight fell on Liam through the patio glazing, he fervently hoped his ordeal would soon be over. Last night, the choice of being tied up for the night or being turned over to the Police as a burglar seemed a no-brainer. True, he hadn't expected to be stripped naked as soon as he was immobilised and gagged, but he could handle a bit of groping. Even by a man. That was embarrassing, but fair enough in the circumstances. 
 
However, when the guy had had his fun, he announced that he would make a 'final decision' about Liam in the morning. Meanwhile, he needed to make sure that he couldn't escape or get up to any mischief during the night. Liam's restraints were made tighter and tighter and his position more and more uncomfortable. 
 
Liam quickly gave up trying to escape from the ropes. It was cold on the patio during the night, but he had finally got some sleep. Now everything ached - no, everything hurt. 
 
He could smell an enticing breakfast cooking, but time passed, and he slowly became more and more anxious about that 'final' decision.
 
 
Packed and ready to go by tru3ai

Even a slave deserves a holiday. My boy says being locked in his travel trunk makes him feel safe and wanted. But there's always that doubt in his eyes whenever I close the lid on him.
 
 
Home Alone 
(Tight Hog Tie on a Bed by tru3ai)
 
 The burglars had seen the film and were taking no chances with Darren. Darren always slept naked and they obviously enjoyed tying him up in that state. However, he found their comments about his 'hairy cleft' quite disturbing, particularly as it had quickly escalated from jokes about parking bicycles to parking a rope between his ass cheeks and anchoring it to his dick.

AI art by Remixing Reality

All captions are by mitchmen 
 
Bat Flirt

 
Bubble Bath

 You thought that AI stood for Artificial Intelligence?
 Welcome to Moonrise Boulevard!
 
(Inspired by the stories of mishandling of aspiring models at a well-known fashion brand).
  
 
Free Checks at the Pump 

RR has a portfolio of sexy encounters between petrol pump attendants and drivers. Some are romantic. Others show one or other of them making the first move. Mature men and sexy jeans add pleasing dimensions to this one. You just don't do this to a thirty-something!
 
Pumping Gas

 I particularly like this one. The customer shamelessly flaunting his body is a great image in itself. He seems bemused by the pump attendant's comic response, but then it's pretty obvious that erotic subtlety is not his style!
 
 
Where D'ya Want It?

RR also visualises the pump monkey as a bit of a himbo who dresses in skimpy shorts at the behest of the owner to draw in customers. New boys who are unfamiliar with exotic car models may be the victim of mischievous customers, exploiting their naivety.
 
Dressed For A Hard Ride

Paths that wind through woods are a favourite stomping ground for AI art creators. You never know who you might meet on the trail so it's a good idea to wear suitable gear. 
 

Careful What You Wish For

Secluded trails are prime territory for cruising. RR invokes the 50s look in this eager, young face. He might be a bold, new boy learning the ropes, but looks are sometimes misleading. Nice to see that this stud takes precautions but doesn't discriminate.
 
 
Pillion Pupil 

There's a retro look here as well, which is apt in the context, as the biker who picks up the surfer type can be traced back to the 60s imagery of Etienne's 'Road Kings'. This biker isn't wearing leathers but a leotard, which replaces mysterious, dark sexuality with sporty freshness. It wouldn't earn him any brownie points from a safety point of view, but does no harm at all to his sexual allure. The opportunity to embrace him from behind, astride a bike, is one not lightly refused!
 
 
Cow Pokes

This was the golden age of American teenagers enjoying the freedom of driving and posing in their parent's cars and hanging out at drive-in venues of all sorts. However, the gay flirting pictured here was at best discreetly under the radar.
 
It was a time when men were starting to show their bodies, and there's some great imagery of shorts here. Not sure about the boots, but they do enable a comical slant. This image complements the ongoing 'Scout' posts at the Royale Studio gallery, which were contemporary.  
 
God Bless Jeans 1

One of the distinctive features of RR's work is the use of media mock-ups, like this billboard for jeans. There's a whole series of these with varied brands and different wearers, plus a range of rips and tears. It's hard to improve on the basic, undistressed look on the right bottom, though. Capable of provoking a range of imaginings. The bike parked underneath makes it look like he's just hopped off to pose in the magic window.
 
God Bless Jeans 2

I like this one because he's older and doesn't look like showing off his ass comes naturally. As if that rip only just happened, and he wouldn't have been showing it to us at all if the photographer hadn't made him lie that way round. He can't wait to make his escape!
 
 
More RR to come ....
