Teddy of Paris - A Comeback?

Teddy of Paris - Overpowered

The much admired 90s artist, Teddy of Paris, has been in touch to say he's planning to start creating artwork again. I'm sure all his fans will join me in wishing him well and looking forward to seeing the fruits of his labours. Read the full message in the comments attached to my article on his work:-

The Transformation Art of AG-Ren

Some years ago I showed some images by Siproites and Yomero (JesusOnTheRocks) that showed men unexpectedly undergoing total transformations into very different beings, stereotypes loaded with challenging qualities for the average Joe. Since then, photo-manipulation techniques have spawned a host of muscle morphs and body enhancement images, but the artists tend to ignore the possibility that the subject might find his changed body and status less than desirable, which makes for a much more interesting situation. I suppose BedVC's 'combatants', conscripted into mysterious, hyper-male roles, might be an exception, but their reactions to the predicament are largely masked. These images by AG Ren make an interesting contribution.

AG-Ren Boyfriend's Shorts

Massive thighs are a natural consequence of some sports.

Giving the process a hand seems innocent enough.....

AG-Ren - Big Bag Basketball Player

But beware of The Law of Unintended Consequences.

A big bag might seem a good idea in erotic dreams,

but it's not a great advantage in energetic sports.

AG-Ren Overtime For Office Workers

Bigger muscles might be a great way to attract fans

and might even distract a batter into an error.

However, a sportsman looking for media adulation,

might find TV has a problem with this pants display.

AG-Ren -Big Breasted Sportsman

There are other embarrassments for sporting types who overdo enhancement treatments. Their new bodies not being accommodated in normal sports apparel, for example. This guy had to improvise special jocks for his weighty junk, much to the amusement of the others in the locker room.

AG-Ren - Tease

Developing mega pecs seemed like a great way to attract admirers.

But Willy's nips became over-sensitised in the process,

an erotic trigger that soon became an embarrassment to him.

As word got around, everyone came to try their luck.

see end result

AG-Ren - Opponent or Partner?

Inevitably, like attracts like.

Casper's felt his efforts to develop a powerful, manly physique had been in vain, as men with bigger pecs and even bigger personalities drew him in. He found himself mesmerised and dominated when he had wanted to be the dominant one.

AG-Ren -Big Breasts in Latex

Of course, many men who took the plunge were delighted with their new bodies. Old latex suits, which had never seemed to fit quite right before, suddenly clung like a second skin, deliciously peelable. Now they showed off the impressive growth of flesh above the waist and also below.

AG-Ren - Enlargement

Not every man found enlargement to be a liberating process. Unapproved treatments were emerging and causing strange reactions. Pete, an advertising executive, found himself to be the horrified owner of enormous melons which burst out of his shirt when he wasn't expecting it, triggered by a weird light effect the boss had installed in the Office foyer.

It wasn't just the visual effect that dismayed him, he had to carry the damn things and they were very heavy. He didn't like to think about what was going on in his pants.

Stephen/Etienne's - Fishing is a Dangerous Sport (revisited)

This article is a complete rework of my original post about this Fishing Storylet by Stephen/Etienne, augmented by the unearthing of several more images and an original Kris brochure with thumbnails of the 6 images belonging to the set.

Stephen - Fishing is a Dangerous Sport

Stephen produced this delightful little vignette to accompany the brochure entry. His characterisations of innocent/naive, young men (usually blond) who seem completely unspoiled by life and ripe for new experiences at the hands of other men are one of the recurring joys of his work.

Stephen - Fishing is a Dangerous Sport - 1

I salvaged this first image from the thumbnails in the brochure (which is included as a link at the foot of the post). It's poor quality, but suffices to set the scene, showing a scantily clad man, standing by a lake, holding a fishing rod in one hand and reading a very large book with the other. Presumably instructions on how to use his rod (!) It looks as if there's a campfire burning just behind him.

We can see he's quite muscular, with pecs and nipples showing through his tight T-shirt. He has legs are like the proverbial tree trunks and his skimpy shorts, accordingly, are slit open at the sides.

This is the sort of picture that is easily overlooked in isolation. Hopefully there's a copy out there somewhere.

Stephen - Fishing is a Dangerous Sport - 2

In picture 2, we see the results of the novice's first attempts at casting his line. At least, I assume he is practising because he's facing away from the water and I would hope he hasn't decided it's supposed to be cast back over his shoulder!

He has accidentally hooked another fisherman's pants and torn them wide open. The diminutive buns revealed are fairly typical of Stephen's work. His depiction of the novice is rather indifferent, but fear not, much better is to come!

This image looks as if it has been cropped* and the brochure illustration confirms that it has. Although we can't see the detail clearly, it also seems to show the angler's shirt being ripped off as well as part of his pants.

*This image has probably been scanned from a magazine, hence the cropping and the dark stain at the top, which would take a better technician than I to remove! I can't ID the source.

Stephen - Fishing is a Dangerous Sport - 2 (detail)

Image 2 also circulates in this, more severely cropped form and with shaded details like the fisherman's skin and his hat band. It's primarily intended to draw attention to his exposure, I suppose!

This version is from Fizeek Art Quarterly No 22 (1967), a darker variant also exists (even more cropped), taken from Mars No 12.

Tom of Finland could lay claim to having used the pants-ripping fishing hook before Stephen (see my original post)

Stephen - Fishing is a Dangerous Sport - 3

Stephen's dramatic confrontation between the two fishermen is one of his most forceful and technically convincing images, but it's rarely seen, perhaps because of the lack of other images for context.

There's a striking contrast between the comprehensively equipped 'pro' fisherman on the right (complete with hooks in his hat) and the intimidated amateur on the left, whose incompetence has caused the conflict. The aggressor has quite a military look about him, but the other man is portrayed as a bumpkin. Admittedly he has stylish hair, but he's dressed in trainers (see below) and skimpy cut-offs held up by a knotted rope. That rope 'belt' seems ripe for exploitation later on!

The offender has a deliciously sheepish look, quite out of keeping with his relatively mature-looking face. He seems highly vulnerable as his T-shirt is pulled upwards. It's in danger of being ripped off altogether. The drooping waders provide a corresponding hint of advanced undress in the aggressor.

Both men sport interesting bulges, but any more suggestive erotic flavouring is limited to a fish's tail* dangling from the basket just above the offender's crotch and a solitary bulrush amongst the reeds groping up behind his legs. (Those reeds look as though they might have been a late addition to disguise an unsuccessful foot). We might include the handle of the fisherman's 'rod' as another erotic ingredient, at a stretch.

*Tom of Finland also employed the niche eroticism of dangling fish in a less serious encounter (see Part 2 of the original series).

Stephen - Fishing is a Dangerous Sport - 4

The hapless novice is upended, and his shorts are unceremoniously removed, revealing his own, peachy bottom. He seems to have sustained a fair amount of collateral damage resisting his attacker, with cuts, bruises and a black eye visible. It's a trifle disproportionate. No wonder the fish in the basket is drooping!

At this point, the attacker actually has his upended victim sandwiched between his thighs, but in order to maintain a decent distance between their 'delicate' areas, Stephen has had to give him an improbably long right thigh. He's signalling what he would like to happen, but daren't draw.

Stephen - Fishing is a Dangerous Sport - 5

Image 5, taken from the brochure (sorry!) is equally oblique. The novice, facing downwards, is straddled by his opponent, who leans back, ripping his shorts to pieces. The victim's arms draped over the over man's knees are a nice detail, accentuating his utter defeat. Stephen uses it a lot.

The angry angler still has his waders on, so logically he would still have his pants on too, but it doesn't look like he does. There's no sign of the black belt, even in this indistinct image. There's something on the ground, extreme right, which might be the pro's pants or his fishing basket. Dare we think that he kicked off the trousers to hook his prey, then put the waders on again for the kinky hell of it? You might just discern the hint of a lump, or something curved, at his crotch.

To the right, behind him, is one very naked backside and two very open legs (another Etienne trademark). Between the legs lies a fish, which I suppose is supplying one of the 'eyes' in the caption. Its phallic purpose is obvious anyway.

I'm less optimistic about discovering this one,

it seems too edgy to have languished so long, unshared.

Stephen - Fishing is a Dangerous Sport - 5a

This picture does not appear at all in the Kris brochure. It's clearly a draft for an alternative vision of the shorts-ripping episode above. A safer one in one way, with no hint of physical contact between the men, who are not even facing each other.

It was intended to be more explicit, with the battered victim's crotch in plain view and no obvious excuse for a covering. The vengeful aggressor's heel is positioned where he can administer a back heel, as his coup de grâce. We can see that he has indeed stripped down to his waders and is displaying his backside to his victim, apparently with no qualms at all.

You may recognise the victim's 'laid back' pose from other early Stephen/Etienne images. The damage is a bit too graphic for my taste. I probably got this image from the Leather Archives website.

Stephen - Fishing is a Dangerous Sport - 6

In the final image, the scene moves to the Hospital. The careless novice sits on the bed, nursing his injuries. His arm is in a sling, there's a hefty bandage round one thigh, another round his head. Numerous sticking plasters can also be seen. In a neat symmetry, he's again reading a book, perhaps working out where he went wrong.

Beyond him, the Doctor seems to be amused. It looks like he's carrying something that looks vaguely like a sundae, maybe fish pie!

In the foreground, a temperature chart suggests rising tension.

Like the first image, this one could lie, unrecognised in an Etienne collection somewhere, filed under 'medical' (like another well-known 'orphan').
