Mitchell's A-Z of Fetish Artists - Letter 'O'

The letter 'O' gives us a small but select band of fetish artists to make up for the break since 'N' including Okawa, Osamu and Osze. I will launch the new letter with a picture by Owsley a study of two sailors kissing which isn't really fetishistic at all (unless you count naval uniforms!) but is a really attractive and erotic image. I believe the title is 'The Lottery'.

It is ostensibly a straight-forward romantic picture that could easily be created in photographic format*, but if you study the detailing, it lifts it into a different realm and is a great example of the special capabilities of hand drawn art. 
(*since writing this I have found that it is from a photograph! I will update this article in due course)

Dennis Owsley - The Lottery

The picture has two focal points, the kissing heads and the hand grasping the bulge, cleverly making it romantic and erotic at the same time. These areas are portrayed in ways to match these moods. Thus the sailor's eyelashes are almost feminine, the neck and jaw lines of his friend are simple sensuous sweeps crossed by the dotted curves of his dog-tag chains (which by themselves succeed in giving 3D shape and depth). The groping hand, in contrast, is uncompromisingly detailed, chunky and masculine with fingers spread wide suggesting improbable, but very sexy bulk between his buddy's legs. The outlines of the buttocks and detailing of the buttoned flap contribute greatly to the sexiness of this area suggesting other destinations for the hand to explore.

There is more technical interest in the soft, pointillist detailing of the torso (causing it to recede) compared with the sharp almost plastic flicks of the creases radiating from the knees in the foreground. I find the open trouser leg with a hint of hemlines and glimpse of sock disappearing into the darkness completely fascinating.

I'm afraid I don't have a link for Owsley, but as usual I'd welcome contributions from those who do.

Chased

Chase Hostler tied up in swimming trunks - 1 (angry)

 

I am a bit of a fan of Chase Hostler, he is lucky enough to have a face that looks both cute and masculine and also posseses a chunky body that has developed, with training, into sensuous plumped up (dare I say voluptuous?) curves without looking musclebound. He obviously works hard at it, but others less gifted by nature might labour endlessly at the gym and never achieve this look.

 Chase's self confessed narcism (see his blog) is rather less appealing (if true), so I like these swim bondage images by Aaron Corbett, which appear to be putting the young man firmly in his place (as per the mitchmen motto!). The jazzy swimming trunks and sun visor certainly suggest a flashy, style-conscious persona in need of a dose of reining in and realism!

Swimming trunks and bondage always go well together anyway (click the speedo bondage lable at the foot of this post for more examples). For me there's a sense of vulnerability and reality that isn't there with underwear bondage.

The rope used on Chase is thick and strong-looking and applying it to his upper body nicely highlights it's bulk and curvature. This halter style rope harness is body enhancing but can also be used to anchor the hands higher up behind the the back, making it harder for the captive to wriggle them free. The lower body arrangement is more decorative! Chase presents it provocatively, challenging his captor.

Squaddie Steve

Squaddie Steve by Mitchell

Squaddie Steve is the hero of my latest story at the mitchmen yahoo! group. He is a soldier stripper who runs into unexpected problems on a hen night gig.

The original picture that inspired this story goes a long way back but I became so taken with Steve and his adventures that I have produced a number of new pictures for the story, including the one above. This one threatens to run and run!

New Royale Series 16 - Sailor Soaking - POST NOW SUPERCEDED

THIS ARTICLE HAS NOW BEEN SUPERCEDED 

BY THE 'NAVY ROMEO' POST 

IN THE NEW 'MITCHMEN' ROYALE STUDIO SERIES 

 

~

 

 

Royale Studios - Soaking a Sailor I did a survey of the Royale Studios output last year, but I have never seen this set before. A sailor is abducted by his comrades and subjected to various punishments. This rarity has been uncovered by Sailor Al at SailorUniforms Blog and you can see much of the set posted there. Have a look! Apparently Royale often wetted the model's trousers to get a clingy fit. The T-shirts showcase some muscular arms too. This set features lots of bondage but the real interest is the Sailors themselves. I have now fully implemented the GIU/Royale label linking to all my articles about Royale and Guys in Uniform Studios.

Warrior overpowered - 4

Jay Diers - Spartans

Continuing with the warriors theme, this picture is part of a group by Jay Diers, also reviewed at Beautiful Mag (Link = Spartans). Despite the grimace, there's not a lot of tension in the pose but it's nice to see the 'male overpowering male' scenario acted out with an erotic flavour. The odd looking helmet is quite sinister but the Spartan association ain't what it used to be since Hollywood took an interest.

Warriors in Bondage 3

Warriors in Bondage

Roger and Harry are taken into captivity.
My fantasy adaptation progresses with this simple combination of art and photography.
I hope Simon will forgive my liberties with his images from Hotsnapz

Warriors in Bondage 2

Continuing with the theme of fantasy warriors in bondage,
I found these men at Simon Barnes' photography site Hopsnapz

Roger Snipes by Simon Barnes
Roger Snipes' appearance has many qualities appropriate to a fantasy warrior including a muscular body and stern facial expression. This pose also suggests nobility and humility.

Thankfully, (from my point of view) there are no long flowing tresses of hair and Simon has not given him furry underwear (I'll overlook the leggings!) I must say, if the weather is good enough to run around half naked (and bare foot!) on the battlefield I can't see why a warrior would need to wear fluffy animal skins evolved for colder climates!

Harry by Simon Barnes

'Harry' somehow cuts a more modern look thanks mainly to his tidy short hair. This style is quite popular in Hollywood films for well connected Romans and their Generals. Did barbarians have hair cuts too? Probably, but perhaps not as precisely coiffeured as this!
For authenticity I'll settle for the muscles, sweat and blood.

Harry's a bit young for the warrior role depicted in my previous post but I can imagine him following Roger into battle to meet their fates.

Simon's photography is worth looking at, it has a bit of unexpected edge sometimes.
