Midnight Shift
tried to draw a more complete picture?? played around with depth while I was at it XD;;

I said that I’d show some tutorials I have saved up to someone, but decided that I’d just go ahead and post most of what I have stored away and create a sort of masterpost out of it. (I figure it’ll help me just as much since, as of now, they’re all pretty scattered between my Tumblr and bookmarks)
A lot of these are hosted on my personal Tumblr, but I don’t change my url so it’s pretty safe to bookmark them there (and not have to worry about the url changing) if you don’t wish to reblog them yourself for whatever reason.

So many tutorials! I’ll be spending my last weekend before Nagranowrimo looking at these.
Storyboards from Evangelion 2.0 that didn’t make the cut. Asuka’s face being peeled off by Hell’s Needles.
jesus fucking christ anno is sadistic
The face was supposed to peel off and talk in “Kaworu’s voice”. “Being happy doesn’t fit you all,” says the face to Asuka. “I’m scared of the happy me. That’s why I should return to how I was before,” says Asuka.
really old vintage photos of homosexual couples
See the rest, they’re all amazing.
the templar boy band
(minus Church because I hear he betrayed them for a solo career or something)
also some close ups because tumblr won’t display the whole image without making it all grainy :T

Dom & Sub is a body of illustrative work in digital media that attempts to humanize practitioners of BDSM and offer a representation of kinky sex that not only refutes negative stereotypes but informs the audience that sadomasochistic play is done best between happy, healthy, and consenting adults. I portrayed the couple in the work not only engaging in S&M play but also building a “scene” together and nurturing one another after the play has concluded; these are moments often left unconsidered or completely ignored in visual representations of S&M. I believe it’s important to see how kinky scenes are crafted with care, commitment to safety and enthusiastic consent in order to limit those times when sadomasochistic play is used to abuse or dehumanize other human beings. It is my hope that my audience will learn from the illustrations that sadomasochistic play is not always dark or scary, and that fellow ‘kinksters’ can enjoy tender representations of S&M that do not ridicule or pathologize them. I’ve designed the work to engage sadomasochistic imagery, material and theory with an ethical conscience.
YES YES YES
cute cute cute! <3
