Mitchell's Cowboy Folio 13

Mitchell - Cowboy Buddies

This post features two drawings, never before published, which were amongst my earliest homoerotic fantasies. The first is a romantic imagining of two cowboy buddies wrestling with friendship and sexuality. The younger-looking one has a stout neck which seems to symbolise his developing manhood. He impulsively pulls his buddy close, feeling inside his open jeans subconsciously as his libido responds to their closeness. His friend, whose stubbled jaw suggests he is slightly more mature, looks down at the hand on his waist which is a more intimate embrace than his more casual arm around his buddy's shoulder. He seems unsure, but does not resist. His crotch bulge is already close to touching his friend's thigh and he seems to be poised to manoeuvre round behind him. That might simply suggest he has protective feelings, but puts him in pole position to respond to further developments with those undone jeans.


Mitchell - Cowboys in the Stable Stalls

This image has a more illicit feel with a different pair of cowboys skulking in the stables in order to explore their feelings. There's a sense of openness beyond the screen and to the left of them as well implying a vulnerability to someone discovering them at any moment.  

The picture has an ambiguous element of bondage, with one seemingly tied to the stall screen by his wrists, presumably to prevent his interference while his buddy unbuckled and lowered his jeans. It may be just an erotic game. In any event, the bondage doesn't seem to be very demanding and the 'captive' doesn't seem to be resisting very much. He simply watches as his friend makes a frontal feint towards his dick, possibly unaware that he's simultaneously manoeuvring his thumb sneakily towards the cleft in his buttocks.

I love the sinuous figure of the captive here and the sense of an embrace (in both pictures) which is about control and desire as much as affection. Submission without domination. Both these images have been tidied up and clarified for publication, but have not been substantially altered.

Art by Gyaku Xryona - 2

More sexy fetish fighting in Part 1 of this series 

Gyaku Xryona - Hercules Breaking Wolverine's Abs
 
The rack is one of the most controlling of wrestling holds, rendering the recipient helpless in a back-compressing and ab stretching position (perhaps not as severely as the title suggests though). Hercules maximises the pain by pulling the victim's head back. It is supposed to be Wolverine but a muscular guy in tight T-shirt and jeans doesn't need fantasy connections to look great when he's treated like this.  This aerial view brings out the helplessness of his position, but Wolverine's thick jeans spare him the embarrassment of parading his tackle before the audience.


Gyaku Xryona - Superman Given a Sitting Piledriver

Superman is less lucky, his tights here are in the modern, cinematic style and lack the traditional, red over-pants worn in the old days and although he's slipped a featureless box inside to protect them and hide them, it still looks like a very suggestive toolbox. In many of this artist's pictures a face embedded in a crotch is a regular humiliation but he inverts that situation here (as well as Superman himself) to create the impression of his groin being a great prize and at risk of being misused for his opponent's pleasure. It looks like he's already high on the odours. Meanwhile Supes is distracted by the pain and humiliation of hitting the canvas, head first, as his nemesis drops him down.


Gyaku Xryona - Superman Given a Nut Cracker

Johnny Cage is one of Gyaku's wrestling 'heels' and he takes delight in demonstrating to the goody-goody Superman just how nasty he can be. Supes protective arrangements can't withstand Johnny's grip and his body and face both crumple in sympathy with his mangled tackle. 
He needs to find a way of dislodging that claw grip quickly!

The characterisation of Supes here is a nice blend of the original facial appearance
 with modern sexy muscles and kit.


Gyaku Xryona - Chris Smells Those Giants

Chris Redfield, the eternal loser in this Universe, steps up to restore the normal order by sampling Johnny's crotch. That pack of equipment on his back and resting on the canvas has the effect of forcing his face upwards as Johnny sinks down on him. I can't tell you whether 'Giants' are any more noxious than run of the mill appendages.


Gyaku Xryona - Chris gets James' Armpit Sweat in his Face

Even without his backpack and sporting the latest blue-grey colourway in BSAA uniforms, Chris fares no better against James Vega, who cradles his head under his arm while applying an inverted choke hold in the standing position. This is a real back killer for as long as the victim remains on his feet and you get a good sense of that in this cleverly angled viewpoint. Collapsing the knees is difficult, it relieves the back but transfers the stress to the neck  James looks disinclined to help out by moving on to another move. A real predicament and painful enough to prevent Chris gaining  a full appreciation of the body juices on offer right under his nose. 


Gyaku Xryona - Weekend Preview

A painful predicament like this is in no way redeemed by having to share it with a partner. Indeed, sharing it removes an escape option for both of them. This monstrous masked man has applied the hold the other way round, as a dragon sleeper, which means he can enjoy the bobbing bodies of his victims as they endeavour to escape from him. He's dropped to his knees to increase their discomfort. Men subjected to embarrassment situations are usually villains in the wrestling world but you can't be so sure of that here.

 As spectators we get a less clear view of the underarm situation than before, but in any case the artist has depicted a looser, less intimate grip here. In compensation we get a double-barrelled view of the loser's crotches, with the unusual bonus for this artist of a mini-bulge on the left, full of shapeliness and highlighted in an exceptionally erotic way by the decoration of his tights - whorls which are nudging it on either side and arrow-like shapes diving down on it from above.    

I like this artist for his inventive depictions and exaggerations of  familiar predicaments,
but I do wish he'd put shadows under his character's feet to ground them! 


Gyaku Xryona - Underwear Muscle Battle 03

James Vega dominates a different opponent with this back-breaking variant of the head scissors move. The victim is forced to kneel and nuzzle his opponents crotch.


Gyaku Xryona - Underwear Muscle Battle 04

The same hold, viewed from behind James
Sadly the dark underwear deprives us of detail.

I have cropped these images to make them more viewable.


Gyaku Xryona - Piers Likes It

Erotically explicit details are rare beasts in this artist's work, mainly I imagine because he posts at Deviant Art which does not permit them. That makes this image of Chris Redfield's buddy, Piers, succumbing to a dragon sleeper and sporting a prominent erection rather note-worthy. The allegation in the title seems improbable to ordinary mortals but some sportsmen do seem to have an extraordinary affection for pain. His cumbersome military equipment gets in the way of seeing much of his body line, but there's a nice abs stretch going on.


Gyaku Xryona - Smell That 02

One of the strangest aspects of the Chris Redfield phenomenon is the sailor outfit which was included as an option in Resident Evil: Revelations. It's an unquestionably camp contrast to the military gear and butch T-shirts he was given originally. The cropped top and turned up shorts (with authentic sailor flap) are a sexy adaptation worthy of Royale Studio, but the white gloves, shades and pipe which never seems to be out of his mouth are plain weird. 

He's pitched against the same underwear opponent in this image and for once he doesn't come out second best, instead he's poised to engulf his opponent with his own crotch odours for once and lest you think I'm overly obsessed with such (un)pleasantness I can point to the direction in the artist's own title. He's depicted Chris's white shorts as being particularly grubby and probably skanky too, so I imagine the effect to be quite overwhelming.


Gyaku Xryona - Bronco Buster plus Abs

 Chris is obviously aware of the offensive power of his shorts and here is poised to inflict them on Dante. The artist's cropping leaves little doubt that face frotting is Chris's aim.


Gyaku Xryona - Hulk Smasm and Breaker

This isn't the best image by this artist but it does capture the essence of  that genre of wrestling where genuine grapplers are pitted against a giant hulk who is much bigger than them and impervious to their puny efforts to fight him. I like the way he has picked Chris up by the head here, like a rag doll. The other fighter is a character called Miguel and he is rather nicely modelled. 
In the series below he's pitted against Dante and Chris. 


Gyaku Xryona - Miguel v Two Losers

Miguel, sexily dressed in open shirt and leather pants has no trouble subduing Dante and Chris but it doesn't look as if Chris needed much urging to investigate his crotch anyway. He seems unconcerned about Dante suffering the torture rack across Miguel's shoulders.


Gyaku Xryona - Miguel Destroys Chris's Back

Miguel looks both formidable and mean in this image with a great torso.
Chis suffers helplessly, while looking cute, as is his lot in life.


Gyaku Xryona - Spine Break

Dante's respite doesn't last long as Miguel drops him onto his raised knee.
His arched body convincingly conveys the impression of extreme stress.
Great jeans imagery as well for him in this sequence.


Gyaku Xryona -  Humiliation

Chris is forced to his knees bowing his head in acknowledgement of his stronger opponent.
Confusion, misery and despair seem written across his face


Gyaku Xryona - WWE, Mason Destroys Evans


This last image is a more conventional one but has the virtue of great clarity, which creates a good impression of the height of the victim above the ground, isolated and poised to descend forcefully.
His opponent has great bulk, but it's more attractively packaged than the average, real pro.

Domination Art by Russ - The Jogger

Russ - The Jogger (1)

It looks like someone butch followed this jogger home
But he doesn't look too worried about it! 
Embarrassed perhaps, about what he was watching on the telly.

The jogger's split-sided shorts were an 80's athletic fashion which allowed freedom (supposedly) for athletes in their sporting endeavours. For spectators it revealed chunky, upper thighs and sometimes more. It was a style that imprinted itself permanently into the erotic psyche of many impressionable young men at that time. These shorts can occasionally be spotted on tracks today and are still turning heads. 

Russ - The Jogger (2)

The cuffs go on, but we can relax, this rough domination is clearly as much a turn-on for him as it is for the faceless intruder. His face transforms, showing an altogether more pugnacious side.

The 80's was the era of Drummer when leather culture burst into the open, championed by the likes of Larry Townsend and Tom of Finland. S&M fetish art suddenly acquired a vividness and exuberance that pushed hard at the boundaries of  acceptability. Bud's 'Smithy', featuring a branding is a good example and the best work of Sean has the same wild characteristics. These all share a cartoon style that cloaks the fetish happenings in boyish fun, but exaggerates the drama to a level that sweeps aside any reservations about the depictions. The characteristion of the intruder here, with massive boots and slightly bowed legs, references the dark style of Macbeth who was also a contemporary. 


Russ - The Jogger (3)

When he asks for a drink of water, the defenceless jogger is subjected to a double humiliation. 
Thanks to the cuffs he has no choice but to drink it out of a bowl like a dog and as he does so, his upended ass is spanked, his flimsy, silky shorts offering minimal protection. 

The contrast between the clothing of the two characters here is a key erotic ingredient.

The plot rationale for this development is obscure, but the imagery is unforgettable.
The face-splashing in the bowl is brilliantly realised.


Russ - The Jogger (4)

The intruder does not allow his captive to rise to his feet.
The chastised jogger submits to paying his respects in the usual way.
Take your pick of the 3 options in this position*.

After being set up by image 3 this outcome seems a bit humdrum. However, Russ makes a good job of expressing the submissiveness of the jogger who is planted between the intruders legs and slightly leaning back creating an arching, vulnerable body shape. Retaining the cuffs in this more explicit image is daring. The similar (and very sexy) submission scene in Etienne's Night Patrol is completely hands-free.  You'd expect that there would be another more probing, pants dropping to follow, but if there is I haven't found it. 

*the options are: suck, shoot, drench

Defeat and Enslavement - Art by Theurges pt3

Theurges - Niamh v The Alpha 

This artist's depiction of human encounters with fantasy 'creatures' produces some memorable imagery (see Part 2) but this struggle between humans - Niamh and The Alpha - is the most substantial work at his  web site (link at the foot of the post) and arguably his best story-telling. 

Niamh is the ginger-haired, former hero and leader of a combat-based culture. He is recalled from retirement and marriage by the goading of his successor Buck, The Alpha, who has risen to power by ruthlessly eliminating his rivals and now wants Niamh to be his final and most valuable scalp. 


Theurges - Niamh v The Alpha 

Forced into hand-to-hand combat, Niamh's courage and experience is no match for the overwhelming size and strength of his opponent. In this image you get the measure of the daunting imbalance as he seems to be enveloped by hairy fleshiness in an intimate, vice-like embrace which he cannot escape and prevents him fighting back.


Theurges - Niamh v The Alpha 

At one point, The Alpha upends him and pins him to the floor, gripping his throat in a suffocating grip. It's a position which seems to foreshadow the fate he has planned for the hero once he has been defeated.


Theurges - Niamh v The Alpha 

Niamh's resistance is ultimately broken when The Alpha reveals that he holds his family as hostages. Niamh is forced to kneel in an imaginative restraint apparatus (which looks like it might double up as a wallpaper pasting table when not required for sex).  Thus immobilised The Alpha allows his cronies to use the hero to satiate their brutal lusts, one after another. Niamh's family look on witnessing his degradation which climaxes (so to speak) when he is seen to be responding sexually to the assault. 


Theurges - Niamh v The Alpha
This marvellous domination image is one of the highlights of the series. 
It shows Niamh voluntarily entering into The Alpha's service as his slave in order to save his family. 
He kneels at the foot of Buck's bed awaiting his new master's first instruction.


Theurges - Niamh v The Alpha
 

The defeated hero is forced to service the victor. This image seems to capture his stoic resignation and passive acceptance of the humiliating role he must now perform.
It is the start of a long and varied ordeal.


Theurges - Niamh v The Alpha

In the end Niamh seems to develop genuine feelings for his captor and responds to him.
He deceives himself into thinking it is a relationship based on mutual love.
In reality, The Alpha simply enjoys exploiting and controlling a strong and handsome man.
Inevitably, he eventually tires of the game.
 
 
Theurges - Niamh v The Alpha

Niamh is cast into a dungeon and forgotten by his 'lover'. 
He becomes easy prey for all the low lives and criminals who follow The Alpha. 
But his spirit has been broken .


Theurges - Niamh v The Alpha
These men use him cruelly, however they wish.
He cherishes the hope that one day his lover will return
and that his sacrifice means his family are safe and unharmed.


Theurges - Niamh v The Alpha

Then one day the Guards come and chain him into an X-frame
Finally Buck does reappear but only to tell him that he has no use for him any more.
The poignant scene is telling depicted here.

Exotic Predators - Art by Theurges Part 2

Theurges - Brutal Defeat, Drogo v Gaston 

Much of Theurges' art shows naked combat situations and the men depicted always have outstanding physiques. This produces some sensuous imagery when their opponents get the upper hand in the encounter. Here the handsome Gaston, reeling from previous attacks provides a marvellous muscle display as his opponent readies him for an overhead swing into a hard landing. I don't think there's a term for this move in real-life combat since it requires other-worldly strength.


Theurges - Brutal Defeat, Drogo v Gaston 

The fighters' opposition is often drawn from the ranks of fantastical creatures which are depicted as brutish, beast-like, hairy humanoids. They always win and show no scruples about disposing of their defeated opponents. Gaston had the temerity to challenge this one (Drogo) in order to prove his strength, but in this arena unfortunately, the loser loses everything. Drogo, having won his victory and sated his lust at the beaten man's expense here gives him a last appreciative fondle before despatching him to his fate.  If you follow the link at the foot of the post you will see the full fight but be warned, the conclusion is not for the faint hearted.


Theurges - Hostile Moon

Giant Lizards have long been the stuff of fantasy nightmares and in 'Hostile Moon', Lieutenant Sheernan, stranded in an alien desert by an equipment malfunction finds himself being hunted by one of the moon's top predators. Quite why he wandered away from his heavily armed spacecraft completely naked apart from his boots isn't entirely clear. He did take a weapon as a precaution but it proved ineffective and now lies in the sand at his feet.

 At this point he's probably hoping this lizard has got similar genes to King Kong and sees the hairy human as being in need of his protection in this desolate land. Being ginger he's used to attracting all sorts. Unfortunately this type of attraction is a first (and last) for him. To quote the artist "Here he makes his futile last stand against the beast". He and his boots are never seen again. Welcome to planet Vore!


Theurges - Feeding Frenzy

If you've ever been fascinated by the ability of snakes to swallow and digest their victims whole, you'll appreciate the theme of this mini-series. A multiple assault on an unsuspecting swimmer produces a glorious torso image with overtones of exotic bondage and even breath control. The title speaks for itself but this is equally an exercise in pure sensuality and restraint by containment. These marshmallow pink, water-dwelling beings seem deceptively friendly, particularly the one who's gone after the creamery department. There are worse fates, but fortunately the artist doesn't show us them.


Theurges - Speared

When portraying 'beasts' that have a more human form, this artist has a knack of being able to show the intimidating effect of superior size and bringing out an erotic dimension in it with close contacts that hint at forced intimacy. Contrasting hairiness with sleek muscularity seems like depravity and experience confronting purity and innocence - with intent to taint. This image might lead you to believe that the title here is simply a euphemism for such despoilment.


Theurges - Speared

In this world, however, life is brutal. Although the 'beast' is clearly aroused by fighting this muscular and extremely handsome man, those charms do not deflect him from his determination to end his resistance first and that can only mean one outcome. As 'hero in trouble' images go, this is very straightforward but very effective You can see the full set at the link below.


Theurges - Brock and the Fatal Squeeze

After 'Feeding Frenzy (above) it's no surprise to see tentacles rearing their head and Theurges has a distinctive take on such creatures that is totally unambiguous about the phallic inspiration. 

Brock here is an undercover agent who has just escaped from captors who had stripped him in readiness for interrogation. He managed to escape into the sewers but noticed they laughed as he slid down into the man hole. It didn't take long for one of the creatures that live in these depths to detect his warm body and vibrations. Out of the water emerged a penis-tentacle and it swiftly dived between his thighs and wrapped itself around them, lifting him into the air and preventing escape. 

The thickness of the tentacle implies great strength* while it's glistening pinkness is wormlike, suggesting flexibility and agility. Brock himself is more muscular than other victims we have seen and very adult in appearance, but can he save himself?

*See also 'Snakes and Chains'



Theurges - Brock and the Fatal Squeeze

This enwrapment, essentially confined to lassoing the legs and encircling the torso and neck of the captive has a highly realistic feel. There's a tremendous sense of focussed struggle and human muscle pitted being against the undefinable brute strength of an alien being. It's as though this creature has assimilated the ring-craft of the wrestling profession and demonstrates how effectively it can be used very economically to neutralise a man. This is completely different to the normal run of tentacle-alia where the victim's every limb is assailed from every direction and it's unheard of in that genre for the victim's tender organs to be neglected during the process. This creature has other needs.


Theurges - Brock and the Fatal Squeeze

Brock eventually succumbs to unconsciousness in the snake-like constrictions leaving the 'penicle' free to demonstrate it's other similarities to our world's serpents. However, if you are well-acquainted with legends you will know that this is not necessarily the end of Brock. 
You can see the whole 'Fatal Squeeze' story at the link below.


Theurges - Xerron the Orc v Jurgen 

This story features another one-sided contest between man and fantasy beast and in this picture it has reached the point of no return where the challenger knows he has lost but the details of his demise are yet to unfold. Jurgen, described only as 'a cocky fighter' is only thinking of escape at this point. It's not hard to work out what the Orc is thinking about though as he stoops to pick up another leg. Just follow the eyes!.


Theurges - Offering

A muscular man chained to a sacrificial block writhes as his body is engulfed by wriggling worms with penis heads. This image conforms more closely to the traditions of tentacle-land with a mass attack intent on penetrating his orifices and exercising his cock. It's described simply as a 'fertility sacrifice' which seems to imply its' a one way ticket for the captive and it's not his fertility which is intended to get the benefit. The chain restraint suggests these predators are not 'swallowers' and they don't seem to have teeth like the marsh mallow attackers either. The artist does not elucidate and I think that's probably just as well.


Theurges - Niamh v The Alpha 

This marvellous domination image is one of the highlights of the struggle for supremacy between Niamh and The Alpha. It's one of the most substantial works at this artist's web site (link below). 

Niamh is another ginger hero, recalled from retirement and marriage to curb the the growing power of Buck, 'The Alpha'. Unfortunately there are no fairy tale endings in this domain. 

More of that next time

More Domination art by Paragon Illusions

 Read Part 1 of this article

Paragon Illusions - Lessons

I love the devilish simplicity of this image which shows the training of a sub volunteer getting under way. This levered arm restraint isn't bondage art by any stretch of the imagination but it leaves  the captive with virtually no freedom of movement and imposes a defenceless, head-down, bowing stance on him. Humiliation can quickly become a painful torment if the tension of the rope is increased. The top here seems to be deliberating whether to do that or simply tether the rope sustaining his captive in this undignified position. 


Paragon Illusions - Basement Pleasures

This image captures the highly charged moment when a sub is first introduced to the intimidating arsenal of his mentor - and intimidated he clearly is, but it's a bit late now to change his mind. Already naked but still modestly covering up his private parts, there's a hint of the novice about him. The handsome top by contrast is disarmingly dressed in everyday jeans which seems to amplify the isolation and vulnerability of his subject. He seems to be encouraging his man to choose his own restraint gear for his session. It's a rather sophisticated priming technique which tests the subject's mettle and appetite before he is even secured. Involved but not yet committed as the chicken and pig gag goes. Sort of.


Paragon Illusions - Don't Cross Daddy

There's a superb sense of domination in this image with the sub secured with simple but rather glamourous, stainless steel manacles and seemingly wilting as the top starts to assert his authority. It's suggestive of the classic horror movie 'reveal' where the sub may start to wonder if he's been naive or over-trusting. There's a lurid example of this in the closing moments of the movie '30 years of Adonis' by Scud

I can't say I'm enamoured of the 'Daddy' concept, there are too many dubious associations and for me a man should always be manly, not childish. The tone of the title seems to have little to do with parenting.


Paragon Illusions - Surrender Sessions 1

This artist has produced a series of images called 'Surrender Sessions' and this example epitomises that theme with the sub allowing the top to restrain him. Once again it is the simplest of methods but once the chains are tightened they will totally immobilise and expose the captive. 

The 'surrender' is a magical moment for both men, particularly if this is their first encounter. This sub's hairy, muscular torso seems to epitomise manliness, an exceptional prize for the top to acquire and practice his magic and lust upon. The sub's unresisting acceptance of restraint delivers him into the hands and desires of his new master, totally under his control, protected only by their safe word and trust. 


Paragon Illusions - Surrender Sessions 4

This remotely controlled, collar snare is based on the device used to catch dangerous and elusive animals. It  leaves the subs hands free and able to defend himself in theory, but he cannot escape and cannot even touch the man holding the control rod. A strong man might break free but for the lesser mortals it's a recipe for a particularly humiliating form of control which ultimately compels submission and obedience to his master every command.

Paragon Illusions - Surrender Sessions 6

There's no restraint at all in this situation, just an elaborate and emphatic chastity device, denying the subject control over his own manhood. The master is seen revelling in his beauty and his submissiveness, which allows him to touch and appreciate his body. Behind the sub there is an unusually spacious cage which it seems he will be expected to enter when instructed to do so. There he can be left unattended and detained for as long as his master wishes, safe from outside interference but abandoned and alone, wondering what lies in store for him. 


Paragon Illusions - Dreaming

This artist's work is rich in hairy and muscular men of all ages, so when he depicts a striking and mature one like this at play in a swimming pool (in wet underpants) one can only wonder whether his destiny is be a top or a sub.

Paragon Illusions - In Training

Older men are often portrayed as tops, their maturity is assumed to have endowed them with wisdom and experience with younger men should learn and profit from. Paragon follows that convention in this image but but the forcefulness employed here in order to bring the errant young man to heel doesn't seem to quite accord with the chivalrous code of consensuality and trust building normally attributed to the leather community. However, the picture itself is all the better for that edginess.
We can also celebrate here an intergenerational image that does not flirt with the forbidden.



Paragon Illusions - Brute Force 

The artist generously offers us the other side of the coin here with the forceful 'Mister red pants' lured from his idyllic pool to a grimy basement where he is meeting his match. The title and setting leaves us in no doubt that this is not a playful, poolside game but an attempt to impose domination upon him. We might suppose that this may ultimately lead him to the delights of bondage and physical torments. As the saying goes, it's never to late to learn. It's a delicious contrast to the preceding image.


Paragon Illusions - Servitude

This isn't necessarily the same men but the progression is appealing. This prisoner has been stripped naked and the loss of those striking red underpants (or their equivalent) deprives him of more than just his modesty, but something of his identity too and in a curious way, his ability to defend himself.

Prisoner he most certainly is, the stark bars in the cell window tell us that. The artist's title, blunt as ever, suggests that his naked incarceration is intended to be lasting and demeaning, whether he likes it or not - and all the indications are that he doesn't. Not yet anyway. He hasn't surrendered yet but there's a strong sense coming out of this picture that he is not capable of avoiding that fate, despite his hairy muscularity which of course make him a highly desirable addition to the Maser's collection.


Paragon Illusions - The Examination

Strapped down on an examination table with arms extended in a cruciform shape, this captive seems oblivious of his position - or perhaps he is repelled by the sweet nothings of his captor. Unusually for an examination room this one is devoid of any equipment or paraphernalia which might give a clue to what it is used for. What form his examination will take. Perhaps that is what is being explained in his ear. The nudity of his attendant seems to rule out everyday medical stuff.

The captive is dressed in a good quality, leather jock strap and I'd hazard a guess that there's another item fitted to him underneath to help him fill out that roomy pouch. We don't know if he arrived wearing it and looking for an earthy experience or whether it was provided by his host while he was out for the count (having foolishly accepted some hospitable refreshment). That leaky tap or broken light switch will just have to wait!


Paragon Illusions - Piss Pig

The device worn by the young man in this picture is a bit niche but I've included this image not for it's earthy bluntness but for the gorgeous depiction of the man positioning himself to use this unusual facility (evidence suggests he hasn't started yet!) His bubble butt and slightly sagging jeans, showing just a hint of crack, combine with a broad back and long, slim legs to produce a figure almost any gay man would be happy to kneel before. For a more ordinary exchange at any rate. Note the contrasting characterisation with the bulkier man at the far urinal.

I love the small detail of the empty glass he resting his hand on, not simply because it indicates a voluminous discharge is imminent but because it's very nice piece of male characterisation.


Paragon Illusions - Release Your Dreams

Something completely different. A man with wings is chained between two pillars at the mercy of a (youngish) human. Typically in gay erotica, angels and the like are vessels of virtue, ripe for re-education in the ways of the flesh and this one seems no exception. In that context it's amusing to see the seducer portrayed as a much younger man who isn't offered a man like this every day. However this is a dangerous path for any man to walk down let alone an angel. The celestial one looks totally horrified and it's a great look! I suppose immortals have longer to regret their mistakes.

I'd caution them both to look at the colour of the sky though. There's a storm brewing.
