AI Art by Pelonjefe 3

 Previously:- Beach Bullies by Pelonjefe


In this article, a look at other sports and interests
with power play bias. 
 
Locker Room Hierarchy by pelonjefe
 
  This somewhat comical, little vignette, expresses the idea of power and submission more directly than other works by this artist, rather bluntly in fact. It's all the more powerful in that the stature of the participants seems so evenly matched, on the face of it. This isn't a man dominating a boy. On top of that, the artist has persuaded AI to sail within a gnat's whisker of being explicit.

Pelojefe - Jock Hog Tied

Probably just a team jape after an evening training session, 
but training alone late at night leaves a guy open to all sorts 
....no need to shower tonight then!
 
Be sure to look at the Jockstrap Reveal variant
it's bizarre, silly but sexy.
 
Pelonjefe - By My Balls
 
This handsome young man is the best of Pelonjefe's bound jocks for me. Quite apart from his looks, the bondage is so neat and economical. And that backside...what can I say? 
 
This image is the basis for a number of light-hearted videoettes, with tweaks to the visuals and dialogue, try 'Costly Arrogance
 

Pelonjefe - I Felt Something Move Down There (1)

This item is something completely different. A young man is tying up the locker room hunk, a role reversal apparently, but we can't really tell how the hunk feels about it. 
 
The video (below) actually makes a decent fist of showing the ropes being tied, they usually magically appear in AI sketches. To be fair, conventional video makers are not that good at it either, some show every fumbling knot and laborious feeding through of very long ropes, others just leave it out altogether. 
 
Pelonjefe - I Felt Something Move Down There (2)

Midway through the action, the hunk, looks furtively aside and then, in a whisper, reveals his secret feelings. His partner proceeds to do a bit of feeling of his own - but blink and you'll miss it!

Pelonjefe - Brad becomes Bound Muscle

 The saga of Daniel and Brad revolves around a TV gambling game where the highly successful Brad loses everything he has to his incompetent landscaper, Daniel. The only way he can avoid being thrown out of his own house, onto the streets, is by reversing roles. 
 
Daniel humiliates him. As well as maintaining the grounds, he makes Brad his plaything in his 'free' time. Here he's being used for Daniel's shibari practice. His hairy muscular body is an ideal subject for it. His humiliation is documented at some length.
 
Pelonjefe - Stay

Hairy muscle in bondage is the subject of another video, 'Stay'. There's a jungle setting with a roaring fire right behind the captive suggesting that unpleasantness lays in store for him. The video follows his realisation of capture, anger and submission, but it's the movement of his struggling body that supplies the sexy entertainment. A sort of theme and variations.
Watch 'Stay' and a selection of stills
 
Pelonjefe - Ropes of Desire

Pelonjefe's refreshing attention to big, hairy men extends to more mature models too with this unusual, retro-styled, bondage duo. They don't look as if they are delighted about being tied tightly together, stark naked and crotch to crotch. Complete strangers perhaps, selected at random and manipulated into this predicament. 
 
The passage of time might change things, as they get used to feeling the unwavering, warm, furry pressure of their partner against them. It would be interesting to observe what happens when they wake after a night spent tied together like this. Older men still get early morning woods!
 
Pelonjefe - Come Closer, I'm Yours
 
This artist does not neglect younger man in his exploration of bondage imagery. This complex upper body harness doesn't seem to have subdued this one's self-assurance and bravado. He's dripping with water and other variations of this image reveal a shower head just above, so you could read this as residual defiance after a sudden deluge has dampened his arrogance.
 
 
Pelonjefe - The King's Taxes Are Due

The power of beautiful young men to ruthlessly command their elders is caricatured in this fantasy, with a grotesquely emaciated slave kneeling before a sovereign who flaunts his body shamelessly before him. His ragged loincloth suggests he is not total obsessed with wealth and the finer things that his position in life grants him. Rather that he will accept his taxes in various currencies. 
 
Naked men with headgear can often look ridiculous (as in my Ministry of Silly Hats series) but this crown doesn't look silly at all (unless I'm getting old!). It bestows immunity and power on the wearer in this scenario, which enables him to do as he pleases. For as long as he is young anyway. Present day Royalty presents a wonderful demonstration of the ultimate folly of such hubris. 
 
 
Pelonjefe - New Boy - Obedience Training

 There is certain natural order in life that a young man can benefit from when he's old enough, and it readily asserts itself in gay erotic imagery. 
Having a collar put on symbolises this man's submission to a master who will train him in his particular discipline.
 
 There's a recurring motto in this artist's work, "Obedience is new to you, but I will help you get it right" and it's not only directed at young men as Brad discovers when he falls under the control of Daniel (above).
 
 
Pelonjefe - New Boy Lessons

 As well as learning from his master's skills and experience, in exchange for compliance and submission, the acolyte benefits from a certain closeness and intimacy and the joy of being valued, by a man who he can admire.
 
 

  

Pelonjefe - Truth or Dare

The boys in this piece turn the tables on an older man 
in this joyous piece. He 'playfully' soaks their tighty-whiteys with his hose, (presumably he's the janitor hosing down the pool area). Then he teases them with a 'truth or dare' challenge to do press-ups. I have to say, their press-ups are not impressive, but the Janitor seems quite satisfied. I imagine he is more interested in looking at their wet backsides. However, these dumb jocks are cuter than he thinks. Watch 'Truth or Dare'
 
 
Pelonjefe - Sun's Out, Buns Out

This artist also has a romantic side of course, with this relaxed, idyllic scene. Luckily for this hunk, this artist doesn't do spankings - or underwater monsters!

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.
 
All captions in these images are by mitchmen,


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?

Four Sportsmen in Bondage by Rai - 1

1. THE ATHLETE

A rare subject for bondage fantasy

Rai - Athlete A1

Great image, I love the sweep of the athlete's neck  in this submissive bow


Rai - Athlete A2

This traditional athletics kit, is refreshingly free of ads. 
The split side in the shorts has always been an erotic trigger.
The glimpse of inner lining a more subtle treat.

Rai - Athlete A3

Shibari-style leg bindings accentuate the thighs.
A rope harness shapes 'Linford's lunchbox'.
 

Rai - Athlete A4

 A classic tight hog-tie with cheeky embellishment.
Our captive athlete bites the pillow.



2. THE RUGBY PLAYER
 
One of my favourite sporting stereotypes

Rai - Rugby Player RB1
 
Rugby Players are a more common erotic uniform,
but usually young models are substituted for the real life hunks 
and they rarely look as chunky as this man!
His arms look great in the modern type of snug fitting top
(an innovation that has added pecography to the evergreen lust appeal of dinky shorts).


Rai - Rugby Player RB2
 
A roll-call of Rugby iconography
Muscular arms - tick! 
Thick thighs -tick!, 
Lumpy Jockstrap - tick!, 
Knee high socks - tick!
 
This open legged, chair restraint is a great fantasy feeder.


Rai - Rugby Player RB3

 This shot homes in on those fleshy thighs


3. THE SOCCER PLAYER

Rai - Soccer Player SCW1
 
Rai finds another pleasingly chunky man to model as a footballer captive.
 
The appeal of soccer players resided in sexy, truly brief shorts at one time
But the international playboy image has focussed attention on handsome faces.
Modern soccer styles have stubbornly refused to go down the tight, brief route,
but the flimsy clinging material does have it's moments front (above) and rear.



Rai - Soccer Player SCW2
 
We all know that footballers have well developed thighs from their explosive sprinting.
Rai gives us a rare treat by stripping the curtaining shorts away to reveal all
even to the reproductive parts, an equally elusive, legendary attribute of these men.

 
Rai - Soccer Player SCW3
 
We have a better idea of how soccer player's rear's are shaped by their training.
Rai makes the fantasy of stripping one bare a reality.
The captive's, submissive and receptive kneeling pose speaks for itself.

 
4. THE SWIMMER

Rai - Swimmer SWC1


A lean rangy body and skimpy, tight trunks are the essence of the swimmer's appeal.
We rarely get to see them packed out like this though.
 
 
Rai - Swimmer SWC2
 
In recent years, it seems to have dawned on media types
that swimmers look much more interesting when they are out of the water.
This has created something of a vogue for the diving branch of aquatics.
This shibari semi-suspension seems to pick up on the artistic shaping involved.
 

Rai - Swimmer SWC3

Swimmer's slender bodies seem an appropriate subject for contorted positions.
This one is very open and receptive in nature.
Something for the captive to ponder as he waits.

The Art of Absolutbleu 1 - Icons

Absolutbleu - New Soccer Captain

This marvellous image is labelled by the artist as a soccer player and the shin pads and technique of chesting of the ball, cleverly captured here, certainly belong in that sport. However I'm encouraged by the oval ball and awesome physique to see this sportsman as a rugby player. I love his skimpy shorts and mighty thighs. 

The love-struck comic character in the background is another example of the cartoon commentary device I talked about in my article on Nickie

~

 I've published images by Absolutbleu here twice before : A randy snowman in 'It Must Be Winter' and a Pirate kidnapping a Merman in 'Summer Booty' (both in 2019). Both these images and the sportsman above have central characters with a strong identity, either cultural or homoerotic. I've labelled them as iconic for this post (although it's a fashionable, much abused word in these days of vagueness).


Absolutbleu - Cop, Ticket Stop*

"I'll do whatever you say, Officer!" The simple device of an opened car window in the foreground draws us personally into this image imagining the erotic aura pouring into the car. This is the cop as a desirable man as well as a figure of authority, a lethal combination. His swollen pecs are a trademark of this artist's work.

The sportsman above is a reasonably authentic imagining of the hunky footballer icon but Absolutbleu doesn't allow conventional attire to confine his re-imaginings. The upper body of this cop is not so very far removed from the muscular types seen in American cities but his scanty, mankini-like thong certainly is. Absolutbleu transforms a ludicrous garment into something very sexy, attracting our aroused interest rather than ridicule (who would dare?). The pouch design is similar to that used by Stefan in his muscle art. The badge and it's subdued, co-ordinated colouring are nice touches.

*indicates my title not the artist's

 

Absolutblue - A Small Present (Cowboy*)

The cowboy gets a similar makeover with a cow-hide pouch by the look of it. Interesting! No gun in his holster though, which might lead you to think the phallic column in the background is more his thing. Or perhaps he's making his way home after being waylaid by a bandit who took everything he had. If so he doesn't look too upset about it.

This artist's faces are quite expressive and this one is decidedly cute in a manly way.

 

Absolutbleu - Nathan Drake (adventurer*)

 The 'dangerous curves' of Nathan Drake from the game 'Uncharted'. He's representative of the modern day, game character icons (like Chris Redfield) whose durability has yet to be proven. This sketch shows his face in it's unrefined form and there's a delicacy of line and authenticity that is quite engaging, a sexiness that shades into something rather different in the more polished images. The sweeping 'S'  of his exaggerated body curves shows an artistic sense of style.


Absolutbleu - Sea Food (preliminary sketch)

This sketch for a beached merman shows similar characteristics of stylishness and delicacy. This creature's muscularity is conveyed mainly by a sense of bulk, rather than detailed line work or shading. Both these sketches illustrate another prominent feature of this artist's work - subjects who flirt with the viewer, inviting us to admire their bottoms (and so on).

 

Absolutbleu - Xmas Drive Aid

 It's the wrong time of year in the Northern Hemisphere but I can't leave this selection of Absolutbleu icons without mentioning Father Christmas. One for the boys down-under! This artist's output of Xmas-themed images is phenomenal and this sexy Santa (who is not the real thing but a regular humpy guy who's dressed up for charity) is a worthy representative of them. He's seen braving the cold snow with no apparent adverse consequences for his ding-a-ling. I like the skilful ribbon arrangement, covering and clinging to his elevated nipples. Meanwhile the potential for unravelling that bow boggles the imagination!

There will be some more icons next time......

Gay Heroes

 

Justin Fashanu presented as a role model for young men
 

I stumbled across this picture of Justin Fashanu while indulging my interest in old war comics. His photo was featured on a back cover, the spot reserved for inspiring young men with sporting heroes. That was in 1980. A year later he became the first British black footballer to be transferred for a million pounds and was playing for one of the top clubs in the UK, winning acclaim for his spectacular goals and represented England at U21 level.

Million pound legs

In October 1990, almost exactly 30 years ago, Justin came out as a gay man, aged 28. To this day he remains the only player to have come out whilst still playing in the top levels of UK soccer.

Even today, black soccer players face a barrage of abuse when they step out on a football field, it was worse in 1990. At that time too the homophobic element in UK life was mounting a (last?) stand against gay rights exploiting the AIDS crisis and helped by Margaret Thatcher's nauseating 'Family Values' campaign.  In such a climate it's not hard to imagine the courage needed for a gay, black player to come out and play in the public arena. 

Justin Fashanu - Proud and Gay

Fashanu was publicly disowned by his equally-famous, footballing brother, John. It later emerged that as a million pound player he even had to deal with the anti-gay bigotry of the manager who had signed him (even at 21 Justin was not ultra-discreet about his life-style). Perhaps not surprisingly in view of that, the mega-transfer deal proved to be the peak of his career, he never reproduced the same form at his new club and suffered an injury soon after that limited him to lesser clubs for the rest of his career.  Nevertheless he carried on playing successfully at the senior level until 1994 and was still a prolific goal scorer for Torquay Utd in 1993.

In 1998 he committed suicide after being charged with a sexual assault in Maryland where gay sex was still illegal. He said it was a consensual act but believed he would be convicted anyway.

~

Apart from the coincidental 30 year anniversary of his 'coming out', Justin's story struck a chord with me since it's only a 10 months since another well-known Englishman came out in very different circumstances. Philip Schofield has had a long career in British Television as a co-presenter, most recently of a day-time magazine style show This Morning' and 'Dancing on Ice'. In February he came out on air and revealed that at the age of 57 and after 26 years of marriage he had 'finally come to terms with being gay'. The media response was to praise his courage and treat him as a hero and even laud him as a 'Gay Icon'. As you might expect these days, his Television career hasn't suffered at all, which is good news, unquestionably. 

  Phillip Schofield held back tears during the moving interview

I have no particular gripe with Schofield, but to laud him as a hero seems wrong. For me the real Gay Heroes are men like Justin Fashanu who had his faults but tried to live openly as a gay man in a very hostile climate. There are many thousands of gay men who you have never heard of, who do just that, leading the lives nature has assigned to them, openly and without concealment, fuss or fear. 

They are all heroes.

The 'coming out' of a role model is important, particularly for some gays who struggle to liberate themselves, which is why I applauded Tom Daly, the Olympic Diver when he took the plunge at the peak of his career. Schofield, a man who has taken 57 years to (begrudgingly) accept what he is, can be praised for biting the bullet and welcomed into the gay community of course, but his coming out is hardly an inspiring example for others or a ringing endorsement for being gay.
