The Art of BrosFate - 1


BrosFate is a CGI artist with a fetish bent that's a little out of the ordinary.
His most notable creation is Frank - The Captured Soldier (above).
He's a young man with an enviable physique and an adventurous job.




Frank's 'fate' (to borrow from the artists moniker) is to be sent on missions and captured.
The artist portrays the background to his capture in enough detail to tell a proper story
He gives Frank simple, military clothing which complements his fine physique.
As a professional soldier he makes a significant capture for his civilian opponents.

Clothing is often problematic for CGI artists but it works well in these images
The background detailing here is a little basic but the tilt of the picture is clever,
creating a sense of blindfolded Frank being pushed and stumbling forward. 
.


Frank is forced into a submissive kneeling position as they to interrogate him.
I'm never quite sure with this art-form just how much credit goes to the artist
and how much to the software resources he is using, but this is a good composition.
You can see that Frank (like us) is wondering what they are planning to do to him.
The tilt of the floor here sustains an impression of disorientation

BrosFate seems to have a good sense of how to manage his space here,
avoiding the CGI trap of placing characters in vast, empty halls . 


.
Goodness! Image No 19 and Frank's still got his pants on....just about!

BrosFate allows the fetish situation to develop gradually, but he doesn't waste frames as padding
and rarely uses slow-motion sequences, instead producing a succession of unique images and some, like this one,are pretty impressive. He uses close-ups to good effect. The cropping here focuses our attention on the exceptionally well-rendered invasion of Frank's undershorts
and, simultaneously on the subtle, eye-contact duel that's going on.

Franks sturdy thighs are highlighted by the cut of his shorts which make a sexy side-dish for this feast.
This is almost the perfect illustration of what makes shorts sexy (from the front at any rate!)



BrosFate characters use realistic coercion techniques, by and large he avoids resorting to leather dungeon cliché's like tit clamps and candle wax, in favour of less sophisticated forms of brutality

The buttocks of the kidnapper are a sweet detail here and the soldier's recoil convincing.


CGI artists are often beguiled by the ease with which they can create unusual viewpoints and BrosFate uses aerial ones a lot. There's a risk of creating distance and separation from the viewer with this technique, which then undermines involvement, The unfamiliar perspectives can look odd too.

However, this image has many virtues, not least a very sexy view of Frank's hair, shoulders and bottom.
The glimpse of boots still on his feet underlines his total nudity elsewhere.


 There's a marvellous sense of action and drama in this image.
The canted frame angle seems to reflect the wildness of the whiplash
and the prisoner's disorientation and disarray.


There's worse punishment to come for Frank but he demonstrates his heroic credentials by spitting in the face of his torturer, rather than passively soaking up the punishment . It's a raw example of character development that you don't always get in erotic confrontations.



After that, there's only one option left - sexual and psychological degradation.
One of his tormentors seems to have donned Frank's shorts at this point
as though to demonstrate his total control and to deprive Frank of his military identity.
Let's face it, it's kinky too.



Compare this low level close-up with the preceding image and you see
how it captures the physicality of the interaction and Frank's resentment at it,
whereas the aerial shot emphasises his alone-ness and vulnerability at the rear.

The tight cropping here is brave. That's partly driven by a desire to create a 'vanilla' publicity image
but see how it seems to lift Frank's humanity and relegates the villains to to the sidelines



The villains have their way of course, in the end.
This could be just a routine, porn penetration moment but the inclusion of the pants-dropping detail adds a sexy frisson of earthiness and over-eager awkwardness.
Frank's pose is magnificent, defiant you might almost say. 

Unlike the average porn video, the top's satisfaction is not the end of the story.

There's a sudden and bloody interruption, Frank's comrades burst in and shoot his abusers.
(having been summoned by the radio tooth implant - bluetooth?- in Frank's jaw).
He is rescued, but only so he can go through it all again on his next mission.



 Frank is assigned to escort an important civilian, but loses his charge in an fire fight
(which is illustrated in comic strip detail, blood and all)
His pursuit takes him to this deserted house where he is attacked again.
He gives a good account of himself but meets his match in this kick boxing exponent.

This aerial image shows off Frank's shapely physique and cute bottom.
I think he looks great when he's dressed.


This lower, roughly eye-level viewpoint is more dramatic and draws us into the action.
It's a stunning dynamic scene. As narrative, it tells us a lot about Frank and his opponent's capabilities, which makes his capture a more significant event and his subsequent ill-treatment all the more intense.

I think some of the background detail and fighting poses are 'off the shelf',
but the artist has certainly made good use of the tools at his disposal..



Inevitably Frank is tortured to reveal what he knows.
 He writhes to the side to avoid the shock wands.

The low waist on his trousers creates a very 'exposed' effect at hip level,
it looks highly vulnerable to those nasty electrodes hovering nearby.
There's worse to come as the array of implements on the table indicates.


Eventually, Frank is told he is to become a slave. He is caged as punishment for resistance
and his new master fits him with a electrified collar to ensure his total compliance.
 (It's a similar plot device to my current 'Flat Cap Gang' story line at the mitchmen Group)

I'm doubtful about cages in fetish imagery because they tend to obscure the view of the captive,
BrosFate's neck opening goes some way to sidestepping that.
 

You get a good sense here of a defeated Frank stumbling submissively from his cage
to acknowledge his subjugation to the master. Our viewpoint withdraws as though it's an ending.

Notice how erotic Frank's nudity is in the presence of his fully-dressed captor.
His muscularity, artfully highlighted, is subordinated to a man who looks much weaker. 
But at least the empty cages around him suggest he is the last of the batch to capitulate.
Nice stuff!


This image of the slaves to be, being rudely summoned from their darkened cell
 stands out simply as a complex figure study, it does not rely on comic book action
 or a particular context for it's impact.

 The startling effect of sudden bright light is beautifully captured
and the resentful reaction of the hunky prisoner at the left is a great detail.

The low-level close-up captures the prisoner's cramped conditions well
while the prominent, dirty, toilet bowl spells out degradation and humiliation.
 
'The Captive Soldier' is a remarkable piece, which creates an exciting fetish flavoured drama with a believable storyline and without any of the artifice and short cuts to sex you get in ordinary erotic fetish. It's sexual content is varied and satisfying but not allowed to overwhelm the storyline which has an underlying energy that is refreshing to jaded palates. The artist's ability to create a consistent succession of memorable, sexy images throughout a story of 70 frames is laudable and shows a remarkable artistic focus.

The Art of Stefan 2 - 'Joey'

Read Part 1 - Stefan's Muscle Morphs



 Stefan's special creation is 'Joey', a musclehead who lives for love of his body
 and especially his pecs, which are massively developed.
Joey is a natural extension of Stefan's muscle-morph experiments

  
Like Matt's Muscleboys , Joey revels in his own muscularity
 and the uncontainable sexiness that emanates from it.
 

But like many obsessive men he's never quite satisfied, 
the massive proportions of his pecs are still not enough.

The doll-like simplicity of Joey's anatomy in these pictures is deceiving.
His hair is remarkably realistic and sexy and there's more clever detailing in the basin-top


Joey visits a Doctor for advice on how to develop his physique further.
Impressed by what he sees, the Doctor offers him some special electro-therapy
Joey is gradually overwhelmed by the effects of the formidable electronic gadgetry.
Entangled in cables and tubes, a generous sperm sample is extracted from him.


When Joey comes to, he finds his pecs have been given massive, enhancing implants
Notice that the certificates and images on the walls have also changed!
The spilled waste bin testifies to the industrial scale of his modifications
and to the excitement of the Doctor who still has his pump under his arm.


Further stimulating treatments ensue, creating miraculous growth (and excitement).

The Doctor's appearance is much more lifelike than Joey's,
emphasising his manipulative power and Joey's 'dumb jock' role.
 

One thing leads to another. In due course with the Doctor's continued intervention,
Joey transforms into a veritable 'Super Joey' complete with a skin-tight green outfit.

It looks here to me as if additional material is being sucked into his humongous pecs
 from an injection point in the neck. Very weird!


Like any other superhero Joey is summoned for his missions by a secret signal
pulling him from his leisure pursuits and subtly telling him it's time to change outfits.

This 'off-duty' image,embellishes Joeys healthy sporting character and sexiness.
There appears to be a penis amongst the sea bed debris, is that what he's diving for?.
 

Joey dons his green skin-suit and embarks on his assignment.
But he is captured by the villain, a character with aquatic overtones and connections,
 judging by the column behind Joey.

Notice the groin-level detail just visible.

It turns out that the villain's accomplice is the same Doctor who created Super Joey.
They tie him up and  gloat over his luscious, captive body.
Joey is mesmerised by the villains glowing ring.

Superheros usually have their suits ripped to shreds when captured, these guys peel off Joey's outfit, revealing his shoulders and chest. This deviously subverts his muscularity by making it emblematic of sexual attractiveness instead of strength. There's an whiff of feminisation too, which is not yet the stuff of super-heroes.



 Super Joey's super-pecs are now subjected to punishing trials of strength.



There's an ordeal by candle flame, but the immediate discomfort for Joey
is probably overshadowed by the possibility of his prized, silicone implants melting away!


Eventually it's back to the Doctor's lab for an electro boost.
Those metal electrode pads and sparks look pretty scary
but Joey remains erect throughout all this experimentation,
No doubt thrilled by the attention his pecs are getting (and surviving).


 Now that he's helpless, the Doctor can take advantage of him.
He discovers that the sun does indeed shine out of Joey's ass.
This is a nice picture!


 Super Joey is reduced to subservience and service.


He does eventually escape to fight another day.
With nipples still red from his mistreatment glowing like beacons.


I don't know if this promising sequel ever materialised

Mitchell's Fetish Art for January - A Jogger Detained

Mitchell - Jogger Detained
I have published this picture before at the mitchmen Yahoo! Group
but its one of my favourites so I make no apology for bringing it here!

In general joggers making their way along deserted streets attract little attention.
In my locale, they are usually clad for comfort and convenience not style.
Their physical attributes by and large are pretty average, as you would expect.

But every so often there's a cracker who turns out in his best gear.
Men who like men crowd to their windows when he's due to pass by.
Cars make U-turns and follow him, occupants wistfully speculating.
The possibilities are endless!

This picture has an inter-generational flavour 
but the young man shown is comfortably 'over age' 

~

In it's previous incarnation this picture formed the opening scene of my Olympic Sketchbook for the London Olympics in 2012 when I titled it as "The Olympic Torch Makes a Detour". The accompanying story describes how a runner carrying the Torch as part of the country-wide relay gets diverted from the planned route and detained by a local resident who fancies him.

I have just re-issued the Olympic Sketchbook series of 13 pictures with narratives as a PDF.
You can view and download it free at the Mitchmen Club (at Adonis Male)
All my series and published images can be found there now.

The Russians are Coming - 4

Read this series from Part 1
 
 If you subscribe to the view that all men are bad boys, 
then you will approve of the outcomes at Russian Captured Guys.
Which involve demonstrations of capitulation and submissiveness

 
Bodybuilder Danilo bows his head to the floor 
giving a nice shot of the wrist restraint he is fitted with.


The 'New Employee's' nightmarish induction day, breaks for lunch.
The canteen is considerately fitted with knee-friendly carpeting,
But his learning curve now involves the acquiring of new eating skills
and woe betide the man who spills his food or leaves any in the bowl!


Andrei discovers that the meals come in generous portions
but it's best not to complain to the waiter about quality.


Roman gets detention, but what trainer could be remain unsatisfied
if he's given a demonstration of submissive muscle like this?


 This model will miss lunch too, his restraint arrangements
demand a long period of unbroken concentration

 

It's hard to show submissiveness in this position but he gives it a good shot,
or perhaps he's just regretting not finding out what 'Shibari Shoot' meant.
(to be fair, it doesn't usually mean this type of restraint)

 

Vasily's training is also over-running, some trainers are sticklers for the finer points.
His dodgy underwear seems to have been symptomatic of a wider malaise.

But there's no finer reward for a trainer than when his man finally 'gets it'. 
This total submission means Vasily can now be rewarded with a pat on the back
 and some canteen left-overs, if he's quick.


Vitaly, on the other hand is the perfect trainee.
He has a marvellous physique with good shoulders-back posture,
but he does like his food and he can smell it cooking.


 Some masters can be very hard to please,
but obedience with bring this boy through in the end.

 

But it looks like naughty Maxim is still being persuaded
and discovering the finer points of posture training.
But there's still time, Maxim, there's time.
Which means no lunch at all for you today

The Russians Are Coming - 3

Read this series from Part 1
Models selected for duty at Russian Captured Guys
face formidable challenges once the preliminaries
of undressing and restraint are completed


Ilya is semi-suspended, forced to stand on his toes, his legs spread wide by the ankle bar, 
In this position he cannot easily support his own weight and his face tells it's own story. 
But the chunky shaping of his legs, thighs and calves comes to the fore.


The model's muscular torso is beautifully accentuated by this stretched position.
His figure-clinging, off-white briefs, have a curiously rubberised appearance,
the generous cut flatters his butt-bulk but the high cut sides reveal hefty thighs,
(also seen in Ilya's first appearance in Part 1)

 .

This image shows vividly how 'hands above head' restraint flatters back musculature.
In fact the whole torso is opened up, highlighted in the sagging pose here.
It's simple but virtually inescapable, the freedom of movement it allows is illusory.

Russian Guys give some of their participants convict-like, hessian trousers to wear
as though they are destined for long term captivity and privation 


For this man, the trousers have been cut down to make into improvised shorts
These ragged hems might be seen as a fashionable detail in his real life,
but here symbolise deprivation and the vulnerability of his suspended state.
The snug fit is a reminder of the alluring 'tight white' gym shorts of the vintage era.

Petr on the bamboo ladder
 The bamboo 'ladder' restraint (also seen in Part 1) opens the prisoner's body in a different way,
it's a formalised spreading, which goes beyond mere restraint into intentional display.
The arms, separately restrained to the side accentuate his immobilisation,
but the overall lack of rigidity in the frame give him insecurity more than freedom.


Nudity is not commonplace on this site, Petr's minimal body hair exaggerates the effect
For a man of his age and physique a hairless crotch is akin to Sampson losing his strength

Petr is Intimidated
 The trappings of thuggery are skillfully exploited to suggest danger and brutal power
The pulled back arms accentuate the prisoner's defencelessness.

Boris Waxed
For Boris the ladder is transformed into an improvised, uncomfortable sling or hammock, 
The wax treatment looks scary, but if you've tried it you know the effects are fleeting.
Solidified wax doesn't hurt, it's merely an irritating crust, but picking it off can be fun.

Boris has boyish features that are nicely complemented by his totally shaved groin.
It creates a different effect compared with the older-looking Petr just above.
I like this spread position with partially closed legs, the valley accentuates that shaved area.
I've never seen a shaving scene at Russian Guys but this comes close to suggesting one.


This is a different model, described as the 'new employee' and seen being stripped in Part 2
He has similar characteristics to Boris above, notably a totally shaved torso and crotch.
It gives us an uncluttered view, but he has to strain to see what's been attached to him.
Traditional Leather-culture devices like the parachute ball-stretcher are unusual at this site.

Zhenya - electro-pec'd
These chunky chest appendages with screw-sucking action create a dramatic, visual impact.
But the agonised response of the captive is attributable to the electrode attachments  
it's a refinement which I confess I haven't come across before.

The hooded interrogator doesn't seem fully at ease with the delicate, little control device.
You sense he'd prefer something more substantial with which to perform his duties.


He might think this 'back-to-basics' torment more his style.
You'll have seen the use of chest roping to showcase hunky pecs before, at sites like Bound Gods.
The devious minds at Russian guys transform this decorative restraint into a trial of it's own.
One with positively medieval connotations.


The chest rope is secured around a post and a baton or pipe inserted at the rear
Turning the pipe transforms the loop of rope into a garrote-like, chest compressor. 
Visually it's very subtle but once perceived, fearful in its malign simplicity.

The prisoner's intense facial expression conveys his struggle to resist and endure.
It contrasts with the thug's casual stance 


 'Mr Orange Shorts' is another RCB model with an expressive face
manfully gritting his teeth here as his abs are given an impact workout.
The medic wearing both mask and shades is a quite bizarre concoction
 but I like the leather collar detail.
The models homely underwear belongs to an altogether different world .



 This 'Guy Next Door' arrived expecting a medical examination 
but I don't suppose he expected reflex tests to be conducted on his nipples.
He produces another memorable, near-tears face, as the weighted clips are detached
see him also in Part 1 and Part 2



For Vitaly the regular 'hands above head' restraint is augmented by a noose.
Clad only in his underwear, it brings a nightmarish dimension to his ordeal.



RCB sometimes flirts with extremes of restraint which produce challenging, chilling imagery.
be prepared if you visit the site!
