I put less effort into this one, compared to the previous one, but I am quite pleased how well it turned out. As usual, I had some trouble finding a suitable background. One of the simplest (and lamest and laziest) ways out is to use nothing but black. And, like most of the time, it looks good enough. I also tried a transition between different patterns, to make the background a bit more interesting. Finally, I combined this approach with one of my stock decalcomanies I always end up using.

This image went through many phases. First, it was mostly gray and consisted of two parts; then it became blue; and finally, it settled for ocher. I’m still not perfectly content with how it turned out, but I guess that’s the best I can do.

I tried to make it clear what happens by putting two identical chairs side by side; the chastity belt shown is supposed to be one of those models that cover the vagina, but not the anus. Since I made this image, I designed a few workable fragments of my own three-dimensional chastity belt model. The image in the background is the “Odalisque” by Ingres.

A “lingam” is a Hindu symbol, associated with Shiva. It is quite obviously a phallus symbol, although this connotation is usually of lesser importance in modern Hinduism. There are different forms for a lingam, but a usual shape consists of an octagonal prism, a square prism and a cylinder, stacked atop of each other (as shown here). It is unusual to put such a lingam in restraints (it is far more usual to locate it within a “yoni”, another quite obvious symbol), but then, it’s not that usual to put a phallus in restraints either.

For the reflections on the metal parts, I used a reflection map and had to try a lot of different pictures to find the right one. As far as I remember, I used mostly photos from Angkor Vat (where a lot of lingams can be found), but since you can’t make out anything in these reflections, it’s mostly about the distribution of black and white in these photos, and a photo of an alley in Mannheim would have been just as well.

I prefer images of women to images of men (which should be obvious by now), and mostly, I have am attracted by fantasies with dominant women in charge, and suffering men. But these two tastes pose quite a conundrum: the suffering part in a BDSM-scene is usually far more picturesque than the torturing part. In the first version, I solve this problem by using a transgendered male sufferer. In the second version, I reinterpret the image as a portrait of a female keyholder.

Roses
Title „Hagebutte“
“Rosehip”

The roses in this image are obviously blooming, and no rosehips are to be seen (the flowers in the image are Rosa canina, to be specific). As a child, I was unaware that roses are the flowers that produce rosehips. In German, those are called “Hagebutten”, which is quite distinct from “Rosen”, the German word for Roses, and so I thought that “Hagebutte” was the name of a certain species (or genus, or whatever I thought back then). When I was conceptualizing this image, it would have been nice to use a photo of some shrubs of blooming Hagebutten as a backdrop, since I like the word, but, alas, there is no such thing as blooming Hagebutten shrubs. But I can still use an image of blooming roses as a backdrop for an image I call “Hagebutte”. Because, who could stop me?

Two years ago, I used a Dodecadodecahedron to celebrate Europe Day on -05-09; now I made a new version with a Small ditrigonal icosidodecahedron.

Sometimes, I scribble some circle arcs to obtain some kind of hatching. I tried to reproduce these scribbles with SVG. Those circle arcs can be read as waves on the moving sea, or as some kind of hills, like the hills in the animations Terry Gilliam did for Monty Python’s Flying Circus. In my second version, I therefor colored those “hills” green. To make it a bit more interesting, I tried to add some perspective: add a sky and some clouds, and make the far hills blue. Still, such round hills look rather unnaturalistic, so I made, in the fourth version, the hills (and the clouds) more shallow. As a fifth version, I constructed hills without concentric circles.

Hommage
Title “Hommage”

MethodInk & tablett drawing

Since Angelus sent me eight new images with sexy chastified she-males, I felt the urge to draw some kind of Hommage (as if I needed a excuse to draw a chastified she-male), so here it is. I’m rather proud how the colors of the skin turned out. I could have immitated the style more closely, with huge white eyes &c., but that would have been rather boring, I guess. The background, of course, had to be white to follow the model, but I considered adding a simple background as a variation. But what color should I use for the background? My indecisiveness forced me to develop a shockwave flash file to be able to change the background on the fly, randomly per mouseclick or by morphing through the wheel of hue values.

Title „Auf dem Hügel hinter der Stadt meiner Eltern wurden drei Windräder errichtet, und nun sieht es dort aus wie Golgatha“

The title says it all, I guess. This image seems to be a descendant of the Gilliam landscapes shown above. And in case a fellow denizen is reading this: I am aware that there is no looming, towering hill behind Merchingen (the town in question), and this here isn’t photo-realism.
