Saint Sebastian at the Royale Gallery
This image of Royale model, Ron Wiltshire, tied to a column as Saint Sebastian
is amongst a number of recent posts at the Royale Archive.
This picture wasn't actually taken by Royale, but probably by Domenique.
He had a reputation in his day for coming on to his models,
Maybe this is how he did it!
For those into the background of Royale's operation, a catalogue sheet from the Hussar period which I recently discovered has filled in information about this later period, notably the 'Sailors in the Rigging' sets which have been very elusive up until now.

Evinist - Venom |
Evinist's take on Venom captures the confusion of Eddie Brock as he tries to comprehend the presence within him. The physical entanglement is presented more as bondage than irresistible organic intimacy with Venom cast as an unlikely seducer rather than a dominating monster. Nice colour palette.

Evinist - Batman and Wayne |
This is one of the sexiest portrayals of Batman which I have seen for a while with buttocks and pecs that easily overcome my dislike of masks. The coy dialogue and smiling faces are a witty take on the suave, but brusque and sexless Bat personality that Adam West portrayed in the 1960's TV series.
A homo-erotic relationship between Batman and his public identity Bruce Wayne isn't logically possible since they are exactly the same person in the original comics. Batman does seem to acquire a mysterious something extra when he dons his black kit he's not supposed to have super powers that would make him into a completely different entity. Still, it's an interesting fantasy and I suppose you could see it as a psychological equivalent of the Venom 'twinning' which does have physical basis.
A superhero succumbing to seduction seems extra sexy because they personify strength and are normally supposed to be focussed on heroics and doing good. However Batman's sexuality has always been far from cut and dried with a lack of women in his life and a friendship of an unknown nature with a Boy Wonder. We can't tell if he's embarrassed by Wayne's advance or simply playing hard to get.
Is this self-love personified or self realisation?

Evinist - Batman and Superman |
Batman tries his own luck with Superman in this picture, perhaps having come to terms with his own sexuality in the picture above. There's even a slight feminine cast to his face which is unfortunate methinks. Superman looks entirely embarrassed but suspiciously compliant. He's got a better claim to dual identity with a closet changing habit to boot. However he was always resolutely heterosexual in his everyday life with all-American looks and a pretty girlfriend whom he occasionally romanced when wearing his skin-tight Super suit - lucky Lois! That only serves to make the idea of him being susceptible to men all the more appealing.

Evinist - Batman and Robin |
This image shows Batman as he is 'supposed to be', strong, mysterious and very upright with a figure, I might add, that is well constructed but entirely unappealing. It's hard to imagine this Batman ever being seduced - or leaving his over-pants at home as he has in the preceding pictures.
The situation presented here represents an interesting double reversal of Robin's character, rescuing him from the childlike obedience and absurd mediaeval dress of the original concept and converting him into a rebellious, sulky teenager who dresses like a modern day 'agent' and yet is more under the Bat-thumb than 'red and green' Robin ever was. I suppose Robin was born to be hung out to dry, but you imagine this converting quite easily into a warmly parental hug.

Evinist - Nice Trick |
In those days, superheroes used to go in for humane humiliation of villains (I assume this is a villain from his eye patch but I don't recognise him, it could be a pranked hero who's trespassed into Gotham territory). Whatever the case, this is a well-worked, homo-erotic elaboration of the concept. Obviously mature and muscled, he's not only immobilised, but forced to crouch in a humiliating (and ultimately painful) fashion with a rope round his neck like a dog's collar and lead. 'Boy Wonder' Robin is not usually credited with this amount of power over other men, his victim's bulging muscles underline the extent of his achievement. Perhaps the bulging crotch lent him extra motivation!
Black superheroes are only now starting to become part of that lexicon but they are equally rare in homoerotic art so this contribution is welcome although it's really a black version of a white character (both artistically and storywise). This superhero in bondage is one of a group and I included another in the first post about this artist. As a composition, it's similar to the picture just above, I admire the clarity of the complex bondage and the colour palette, drawn from the Green Lantern theme of course.
Unfortunately the erotic impact is weakened by the huddled, protective stance of the figure and his bulge bondage, which doesn't express 3 dimensions, the far side of the loop should disappear behind it (as it does briefly in the picture above). To be fair, this artist doesn't usually go in for exaggerated frontal assets. Perhaps it's a deliberate emasculation, a reversal of stereotypes, so the eye avoidance in the captive's facial expression is not just about the embarrassment of capture and of being subjected to such elaborate, showy bondage. However, whilst none of us wants to be defined by stereotyping, I'm not sure that necessarily means we want it all completely taken away!

Evinist - Bruce Wayne Crop Whipped |
Bruce Wayne turns up unexpectedly in this situation too which takes place in the head Office of his own successful business enterprise, judging by the logo on the draw handle to which he his strapped. The tenor of the other images above and the bulging, strapped groin suggest this is his secret, sexual peccadillo rather than a plot-related comeuppance, say at the hands of a business rival or resentful employee. Perhaps this is the way to get promotion at Wayne Enterprises!
![]() |
Evinist - Body Harness Restraint |
This artist often depicts clothed bondage which can't usually be as erotic as the unclothed variety but this suited captive makes a pretty good fist of it with a startlingly sexy backside. It's accentuated by a low, waist-encircling strap and a tight, groin divider. The thigh strapping also contributes to the bubble-butt effect. The arm restraint is a very simple concept, not based on tightness but positioning and you can just tell that it's extremely effective. There is also a foot spacer, it completes the detail satisfactorily but visually is not quite as effective. Foot spacers tend to be like that.
The harness straps are quite wide and relatively rigid looking and that adds to the sense of substantial restraint. Their brown colour distances the scene from biker style, leather fetish and probably helps the clarity of the harness arrangement.
The underlying scenario here is something of a mystery to me. It looks like a classic villain and businessman but the agenda for their meeting is not obvious. Why would you dress a man in a total body harness and yet leave him fully clothed apart from a jacket? Why put him kneeling on top of a (comfortable!) stool? I imagine these are characters are taken from a game or comic source but I haven't identified them.
Men displaying attractive butts is a favourite theme by this artist and this is a nice example with nice brief shaping and subtle alluring highlights atop each buttock suggestive of wet swimming trunks or shiny fabric. Stout thighs and a slender waist helpfully frame the area of interest.
This man, mature and stubbled, looks a tough cookie but you sense he knows what he's doing here!

Evinist - Ginger Hair and Bubble Butt |
There's no such ambiguity in this variation on the theme, the eyes and blushed cheeks say it all. At one time such a bulky man with a full crop of hair and generous beard would have seen as a man's man when that expression meant not just the opposite of gay, but not given to 'soft' emotions. Certainly not the sort to give coy come-and-get-me signals or flaunt his bare backside while nestling in the sheets! This image would have been very subversive then, but in a modern context it's totally unshocking but delightfully playful and his ginger colouring a rare find.
![]() |
Evinist - Fantasy Pop Star |
This image is at the other end of the scale with a futuristic performer showing a similar rear view to an adoring audience. In reality, this approach to Pop marketing is almost entirely the preserve of female performers with male singers rarely expressing their individuality through daring exposure or even clothing anything more fanciful than T-shirt logos or Dame Edna style glasses. Even the fanciful headgear here seems inspired by Showgirl imagery. The bangle-like, hovering belt is more masculine however and curiously alluring.
The bare butt here has similar qualities to the kneeling executive seen earlier but the bubble of the butt is emhasised differently by jock style framing rather than mid-buttock cross-strap. Ther's still separate groin divider strapping but whether it actually goes under his crotch or somewhere else is open to interpretation. The dangling key suggests a more calculating approach to seduction than the shy ginger man above.
![]() |
Evinist - Solace |
This picture is not overtly erotic but there's always sexiness in expressions of gentleness between men and in men responding to it. There's a hint of inter-generational love here that gives an extra frisson to the exchange (without any hint of inappropriateness). The seated man seems to be nuzzling against that tight, muscle enhancing top (who wouldn't?). His appearance (be he superhero or simply a fit individualist) contrasts with the casual sexiness of the other's open shirt and hairy chest, creating the impression of a sexual time-bomb ticking away.
This image of a homo-erotic relationship between a more than usually youthful Aquaman and another man of the sea (whom I haven't identified) is a nice, youthful expression of male bonding that is more representative of gay relationships than all the sex scenes put together. As ever the artist makes light of sexual matters but highlights the handholding of the characters, symbolising friendship, affection and trust. If there is not an inter-generational situatiion here, there is clearly an element of leader and follower which is organic in nature and not expected of ordinary men (contrary to everyday experience) and certainly not between superheros, who don't hold hands either, thank you very much!. This delicate issue is usually sidestepped in the heterosexual media and films by inventing military structures (The Justice League) and appointing a Commander who even the strongest hero must defer to. Yes domination is quite OK.

Some Like Them Hot
If you wanted to make big money in the Slavery game you needed to get hold of hot men.
Unfortunately Government auctions of condemned men were mostly made up of
minor criminals, debtors, drunks and the work-shy - they rarely featured handsome hunks.
When they did the competition to buy them was fierce, private buyers drove the prices sky-high.
It was cheaper to trade in volunteers.
Men who'd had enough of normal life, needed quick cash or wanted to disappear.
They could be bought privately or persuaded to sign fixed-term contracts.
But it was still pot-luck what sort of material you got.
Some traders only wanted the cream of the crop, so they went out looking for them.
When they found them, they did their research and learned how to reel them in.
Gyms were always good sources, but fit, healthy men with steady jobs and wives
were not easily tempted. You just had to take them. However you could.
When the scout spotted David and Clyde lifting weights together at a city gym,
he knew immediately they were the ones for him.
Since training was their obsession he left a glossy leaflet lying around,
It offered the chance to workout with a well-known body-building champ.
He knew their type, it was an irresistible lure
The booking made, a discreet, covert, early morning pick-up was arranged.
He was pleased to see they had followed his instructions to the letter.
No-one would know where they'd gone, not even themselves.
They'd even picked identical underpants to travel in, that was so cute!
Despite Clyde's doubts, the 'private training camp' had everything they could have wanted.
They didn't need clothes, they just spent their days pumping their muscles,
enjoying the food and lounging in the sauna and swimming pool together.
And yes, their body-building hero did turn up, he gave them training tips (and more).
A photographer came and took pictures of them together,
An exciting future beckoned, promising fame. Of sorts.
But all the time the boys were enjoying themselves and improving their physiques,
a hundred plus buyers were on line, watching them and calculating what they could afford.
The trader had also provided a comprehensive dossier on them, with tantalising details.
Usually you never really knew what you'd get at auction,
but they were virtually living with these guys,
even seeing them getting fucked together. So cute.
The excited buzz in the chat room sent pre-sale estimates soaring.
On their last night, the two boys slept contentedly, their meal having been mildly sedated.
Meanwhile, on-line a hotly contested auction took place.
They awoke to find themselves shackled and chained, with guards in attendance.
They were allowed a last, (spoon-fed), luxury breakfast - because a long journey lay ahead.
Outside a limo with darkened windows waited to take them to a quiet, private airstrip.
As they waited to board the aircraft, their prized, matching underpants were taken from them.
Such was the boys popularity on-line, their underpants had been sold as a separate lot.
The grateful trader had generously allowed them to keep them on until the last minute.
With that gesture or maybe it was their sudden nudity, the boys became quite tearful.
They were so cute.
That, exclusive, private flight provided their last few hours of luxury,
spoilt only by their naked bottoms sweating and sticking to the leather seats.
Their anxiety about what lay ahead didn't help of course.
In a faraway country, their new owner, eagerly awaited his delivery.
At least they hadn't been parted from each other, buddies to the end.
So cute.

Florid+Blade - Bondage Play 3 |
This artist's work is a visual treat that treads a fairly narrow track revelling in the joy and sensuality of two gay lovers. Their loving cavorting includes bondage fetish play and this is a nice example.
![]() |
Florid+Blade - K and Florid Bondage Session 03 |
Here the top slows the pace, idly fondling his tied-up partner's arousal
and studying his reactions in an admiring, loving way.
The roping of his partner's muscular body and his taped nipples are very erotic.
This artist's remarkable imagery explores all manner of intimacy between the men, but in a way which is so obviously heart-felt and tender that it somehow evades the label of being 'just porn'.
![]() |
Florid+Blade - K and Florid Bondage Session 09 |
The art is not wanting in passion either, but it comes across as a deeply shared emotion.
Their closeness here as the peak of excitement nears is amazingly intimate.
I have something of a love-hate relationship with 'serial images' computer art where a single picture is progressively enlarged into a story of sorts through small, increasingly erotic alterations. However I'm much more at ease with the equivalent of that technique in rendering, whereby a single 3D image is examined from a series of different viewpoints. It often throws up remarkably original pictures. Florid+Blade produces some truly amazing shots of intimate acts in this way, most are too hot to reproduce here, but they would be the envy of any porn director.

Florid+Blade - K and Florid Bondage Session 34 |
The muscularity of this embrace whilst their bodies are intimately coupled in sexual union,
expresses genuine love as well as domination and forcefulness.

Florid+Blade - Training Night 05 |
The idea of a regular 'Training Night' as part of the boys' domestic routine is delicious.
"Sorry love, you can't go out tonight, put your harness on, I'm training you".
"Sorry love, you can't go out tonight, put your harness on, I'm training you".
It's like a formal renewal of their vows of service and devotion to one another.

Florid+Blade - Rope and Trainers |
This might be another Training Night where roles are reversed
allowing the sub to express his private kinks at his boyfriend's expense.
Interestingly he substitutes a private, sensory overload
in place of overwhelming direct contact.
I love the torso bondage and torn T-shirt.
![]() |
Tonkatsu Sando - Milking Time |
This scene also has an air of fetishistic control, in fact there's almost a medieval, feudalistic feel in the oak furniture and roaring fire as if the Lord is extracting a tithe from one of his serfs. It's all good-natured though and there are companion images called 'Milk Your Bull' with similar arms-length, near-clinical relief being depicted. Even in the most loving and equal relationships, there have to be moments of submission on both sides and incorporating that into sex-play makes it a natural, easy thing to do.

Tonkatsu Sando - Devour me |
driven by a mutual desire that has yet to find any limits .
I love the oily sheen on the blond's body here, it makes it seem to glow
His dangling balls dragging on the stone floor are very sensual.
It seems to turn his shaved abdomen into an extension of his cock
suggesting the deep roots inside that his incipient orgasm springs from.
Those sexy nipples almost in tonguing distance look delicious!
![]() |
Tonkatsu Sando - Love in Paradise 2 |
The oily coating is put to good use here as a mutual lubricant at the point of convergence of the two men's torsos which is a nice feature of this composition. The pose suggests there has just been penetration and the top has withdrawn so that they can finish together. It's another expression of their desire to be close to each other and to share their moment of orgasm. The ability of two male lovers to spontaneously emulate their partner's ejaculations during love making is one of the profound 'mysteries' of sex.
Luckily these men seem to have this 'paradise' all to themselves!
This seems rather like a domestic scene, the lovers tenderly coming together at the end of a long day. Gently easing away the stresses of work and the accumulated anticipation of sex during their separation.
The darkening evening light here brings in a romantic touch,
expelling the outside world as they come together again in affectionate play.
![]() |
Tonkatsu Sando - Never Let Me Go |
The profoundness of these men's attraction to each other is spelt out in the title here and the picture does what it says on the tin. One is devouring the other and he in turn seems to be trying to physically merge into his lover. The dark lighting emphasises the intensity that their lovemaking takes on in private. No one else exists for them at this moment and even we are expelled to a decent distance.
The matching appeal of the 'sitters' pecs and his buns is a nice detail.
![]() |
Tonkatsu Sando - Subterranean Pool |
This romantic pool and waterfall location has a very private and mysterious feel thanks to the dark, underwater, colour palate. Cool rays of light bathe their bodies almost giving the impression of cascading water and creating a fantastical, magical atmosphere.
The active partner is perched on the edge of the pool in a manly-looking, casual pose, with his feet dangling in the water. His partner sits across his lap and has opened up his body totally to him, trustingly accommodating his impalement and relaxing into his kisses. They are both semi-suspended as they drift away into their shared, private world of sexual excitement.
A great picture.

Aizy - Eddie Brock and Venom |
The Venom phenomenon (2018) seemed to inspire a lot of very interesting homoerotic art trying to explore the effect of an alien 'symbiote' living within a man and merging identities with him. This is a rather good example dramatically illustrating the thrall that Venom exerts over his host when he chooses to emerge and also the profoundly sexual intimacy that exists between their bonded beings as the one is absorbed/transformed into the other.
Artists usually select the character of Eddie Brock to base their depictions on. He's not the only man who hosted Venom but his villainous leanings make him a lot more interesting than the goody-goody Spiderman and that's reflected here in his sexy, slightly dishevelled appearance.
Visually there's a relationship of sorts with the tentacle genre in the envelopment of Eddie's body which is rather cleverly shown here but the erotic undercurrent is probably closer to the effect of Christuffer's man-absorbing plants.
Aizy also goes under the tag @Laizy Hoyd.

This delicious, naked physique is entangled in an intriguing multi-point restraint
which doesn't quite immobilise his arms, but makes a great visual anchor for a tight hog tie.

Milking Factory 14 by Shenguanlin
This take on the Milking Factory theme has a decidedly sinister flavour with operations being conducted in a gloomy half-light under the supervision of men clad from head to toe in form-fitting, latex, body suits which might be explained as a hygiene precaution were it not for the masks and the unpleasant grins adorning them (zip openings?).
This factory set up is decidedly intensive with the milk producing stock being liquid-fed through mouth-tubes - some nourishing concoction, no doubt, like chicken soup. They are all fitted with helmets that totally enclose their heads and anchor them to the roof of the milking station. Their bodies are totally naked below the neck apart from jock straps and this reveals a preponderance of chunky, fleshy physiques, a breed selected perhaps to ensure a more creamy product. Their fleshy bodies are enmeshed in tight restraints and harnesses that completely immobilise them and allow them to be suspended in their stalls, with feet folded back behind them.
Their productive organs have been temporarily removed from their jockstraps for milking and are kept steady and erect by multi-ring cages with electrical connections for added stimulation. The resulting emissions being siphoned off through simple tube inserts into jars, where unwanted fluids are separated out and run to waste.
One of their number (at the near end of the line) seems to be on 'standby', suspended in the same way but not hooked up to the feed and extraction arrangements. He's also clad in a latex body suit which has a separate sleeve for his cock and balls allowing the technicians to inspect their state of readiness and prime them. Other off-line milkers are resting in cages against the far wall.
A new addition to the herd, lies hogtied at the feet of the supervisors, awaiting formal admission to the facility. Behind his blindfold he no doubt is wondering what all the strange sounds he can hear - whirring pumps, clanking chains, grunts, groans and sighs - can possibly mean.

Shenguanling - Milk Farm 1 |
This striking image offers a harrowing glimpse into the depths of this artist's nightmarish world of abductions and crushing captivity. Men who are taken are doomed, it seems, to an existence of perpetual, suffocating, bondage, punctuated by participation in humiliating rituals involving bodily functions. This includes milking of course, but strictly speaking this particular set-up wouldn't qualify as a mitchmen Milking Factory because of the 'artisan' extraction arrangements and low volumes involved.
The human storage cages seen in the background were also featured in the recent 'Milking Factory' contribution by this artist. They seem like a praise-worthy, humanitarian, rest and respite facility for the milked men, but a cynic might argue it's just a necessary business response to the milk production limitations of male biology and hardly represents a free range approach to keeping them.
The bubbles seen drifting around the captivity chamber are an intriguing but unfathomable detail. Dream-like? Maybe one of my readers can decipher the symbolism.

Shenguanlin - Suspension 2 |
Shenguanlin's complex art is built on simple bondage imagery, like this semi-suspended hog.
His favoured tipple seems to be Rugby Players and other butch sportsmen,
The bindings are invariably comprehensive, neat and believable.
This image is lifted by the lifelike representation of the captive's taped eyes and face mask.
The face covering appears to be improvised from socks, underwear or shorts (of unknown, dubious condition and origin!) These are clues to his deeper fetish leanings.
![]() |
Shenguanlin - Hogtied |
This hog variant puts the prisoner into real world setting, balanced on a table in an austere cell whose bare interior contrasts vividly with the vegetation seen beyond the prison bars, the lush world from which he has been removed. Stripped down to just his shorts and socks, a typically hairy physique is revealed. Since he's so tightly hogtied, the table beneath his body is the only external thing the prisoner is aware of, because a blindfold, gag and earplugs deprive him of his other senses.
This relatively simple image is visually appealing thanks to it's colour balance and crisp detailing. There's an intriguing sense of the unknown. Who is he? Why is he here? We can almost feel his isolation and share his mystification of where all this is leading. He may not even realise that he's set upon a table which seems to imply a tactile physical inspection may well follow his sensory deprivation.
The same basic hog-tie image is worked up here into a dramatic, erotically-infused scene with three rugby players put on display in matching restraints, having been held responsible for the loss of a match. It must have been quite an important one!
Part of their punishment seems to have been a beating of some sort, the random angles of the red weals on their bodies suggest a 'running of the gauntlet' prior to being tied up (compare the recent Drtkk imagery). The beating, however, is just a warm-up for their real punishment. Their faces have been wrapped in a mixture of dirty jock straps and smelly trainers (no doubt provided by their team mates). I suppose it brings home to them, rather vividly, just how much sweat and toil their colleagues had put in, when they hadn't. They are sweating profusely themselves now, even if they weren't during the match.
The restraints here look a whole lot tighter and much more strenuous for the three captives than the previous examples. Their heads are pulled back tightly and connected to tightly flexed legs at the toes. They will probably be dropped from the team after their poor performances, but if they're forced to endure this much stress for long - say, the same length as the match - they aren't going to be in a fit state to play again anyway for a while.
This picture is packed with fascinating and sometimes sleazy detail. This artist has an unusual way (to me at any rate) of depicting the struggling movement of the captives. It consists of squiggly lines drawn around the outlines of their bodies. It works better when you get used to reading it. Some of it seems more like trembling than energetic struggle - which is not an entirely inappropriate reaction! He provides sound effects as well. A (slightly incongruous) dialogue box explains the scenario.
![]() |
Shenguanlin - Duct Tape Boy |
You can see the 'special effects' more clearly in this rather nicely drawn image of a skater-type tied to a chair (surprisingly it's a padded one!). The trembling interpretation applies quite well here. There are virtually no erotic ingredients in this picture beyond the captivity scenario itself and the suggestive, clean-cut characterisation of the prisoner. However, the taped-up shorts are quite intriguing and fans of trainers and chunky legs get a small treat. The heap of tapes at the prisoner's feet and the ropes lying on the floor behind him suggest he's part of a much bigger bondage operation.
![]() |
Shenguanlin - Bondage Freak |
Here the artist takes the same basic image and makes a spectacular transformation with some relatively small alterations. The covering of the face with noxious looking fabrics has the most immediate impact, followed by the spurting, caged cock which is a good compromise between realism and wishful thinking. But there's another, easily overlooked change that arguably has more impact overall and that is the 'doubling up' of the taping which adds body bulk and emphasises the total restraint of the prisoner.
There's a host of fascinating detail including the introduction of an electrical box whose terminals are connected to the man's balls with crocodile clips. However, this arrangement seems designed not so much to torment him, but to stimulate his engorgement into a seriously restricting cock and balls cage which also has a head attachment improvised from twisted wires and holding a 'sound' in place.
This isn't the same man as the previous picture, this one has hairy legs, suggesting more maturity and a greater inner strength that warrants his more demanding restraint. The crudely boarded-up cell window seems to imply he's going to need it.
Unexpectedly, the artist's title seems to imply this arrangement is all quite voluntary.

Shenguanlin - Tonight's Boy |
This tweaking of straight-forward bondage images to show extreme, earthy outcomes reflects an interest in the whole process of a man's descent into captivity and this image depicts the starting point. A very real-looking man has been entrapped, apparently in his own home. He's laid out on a settee being tied up, surrounded by items indicating his passion for playing rugby - but not for washing his clothes. This stereotypically masculine trait makes him ideal material for Shenguanlin's predators.
The captive has been put into a shiny, black, bondage suit with his arms strapped to his sides. The suit is not particularly tight but manages to display a sizeable mound between his thighs, which looks as if it might a white undergarment (and contents) extracted from inside the suit. It's squashed into two moundlets by a very tight belt, part of an assortment of ropes, bandages and belts providing head to toe restraint.
This looks like preparations for an abduction - the protective packaging of a prized acquisition, but the captive's legs are actually being tied to the settee which implies he isn't going anywhere just yet. The captors leave him free to voice his confusion and protests, but it's hard to see that continuing for long.
In this image a similar looking man is being processed in a dark, undefined space. His two masked attendants are indistinctly drawn, but clad in skin-tight, dark body suits creating an eerie atmosphere of sexual menace. The title tells us more of what is to come, the smell of the place may give him that clue.
Standing erect so that the attendants can finish strapping him up, he is already fitted with a thick, high collar that forces him to look upwards. A ring gag, attached to a whole-head harness keeps his mouth gaping open and already, his face is dripping with cum. His cock and balls, extracted from his body suit, are uncovered and forced into a multi-ring cage that squeezes tight round his balls and the base of his cock.
Despite this multi-layered restraint, he is weeping excitedly. The artist cleverly maintains an element of ambiguity throughout the story suggesting consensuality. The photo ID card stuck on the captive's chest even suggests a club-like arrangement, recognising his individuality and tracking him. A bit like an animal passport.

Shenguanlin - Installation of a Dungeon Urinal 2 |
The captors tape over his eyes and carry him to an iron cubicle where he is put inside a body-shaped casket like a mummy. It seems to fit him perfectly not allowing him to make any movements. Perfect for shipping but the casket is actually chained to the wall. In the picture the attendants move in close to make final adjustments and he can probably feel them touching and arranging him. They stroke his cock encouragingly (sympathetically?) and too late, he senses something not very nice is going to happen to him, but his gargled plea is ignored.
Next, they will fit the other half of the casket over him. The front section is fitted with a mouth tube that will be fed through the ring of his gag, there's also an orifice for his cock and balls to be pulled out, both requiring careful fitting. Eventually his voice is silenced by the outer cases being bolted together.

Shenguanlin - Installation of a Dungeon Urinal 3 |
By the time the attendants have departed some time later, the outer casing is doubly clamped and chained to the walls of the cell. The incarcerated captive's mouth piece is connected to a stub of a tube in the ceiling of the cubicle. When opened it will drain waste liquids from a Basketball Team's locker room just above.
The captive's projecting cock is now fitted with close-fitting shaft-ring which can be agitated mechanically via an electric motor. His balls will simultaneously receive electrical stimulation and this control arrangement will draw repeated orgasms from him. His own emissions will be channelled to a valve gadget that either recycles them or else dumps them onto the floor.
The prisoner manipulation and accumulating sense of doom in this little epic (which runs to 8 pictures in all) is very effective, all the more so if you identify with the captive. The artist explores this earthy scenario repeatedly in his work and I will provide links to find more at the end of the article.

Shenguanlin - New Arrival 1 |
This looks like it might be the same, butch captive but his restraint is very different here. He's been clad in a tight-fitting, latex, bondage suit that shows him to have a highly muscular physique. One that deserves to be displayed. His arms are restrained in a complex, shibari style, upper body harness but his legs are simply tied together at thigh height, hobbling him. Only two parts of his body are exposed. His head is enclosed in a harness with a gag attachment (which looks rather like a ball gag but is intended, I think, to be a ring). His cock is locked into a chastity device through which he is leaking onto the floor.
He's been parked in a urinal and, unsurprisingly, seems to have attracted the attention of it's users. There are limits to what they can do to him in this constraint but they have left behind souvenirs of their visit. A string of cum-filled condoms round his neck seem to have been left as tips, or I suppose they may be his own handiwork (if it's possible produce handiwork without using your hands!). Other visitors have splashed their compliments over his face, since the obvious receptacle is blocked off by the ball gag.
Ominously the captive has been labelled here with a 7-character ID code, stuck to his chest. It suggests that this period of service is not just a a passing experimentation on his part but a more lengthy commitment. It also implies that he is just a small part of a laboriously assembled team of service providers.

Shenguanlin - Semen Collection |
The condom motif is seen again here. These do seem to be filled with the prisoner's own produce. He's being continuously prompted to produce more by a vibrator strapped to his thigh.
This looks like a facility where passers-by can help themselves to refreshing, cold, cum shots.
They have contemptuously discarded their drained condoms at the prisoner's feet, one has even been draped over his shoulder.
This artist likes his captives to keep their socks on (see hogs above) and I love this one's semi-hairy pecs which remind me of my adolescent attraction to a young workman who worked for a while, bare top in his dusty, black jeans, on a building site very close to where I grew up.
This image depicts a completely different form of captivity. The prisoner is hooded and locked into a chastity device, but otherwise naked. He's been put in a cage that is only big enough to allow him to kneel, a position that has been further restricted by roping that lifts up his tied wrists behind him. The simplicity of this arrangement creates a sense of great vulnerability
A captor wearing a sinister gas mask is crouched beside him as if concerned, but the coiled whip in his hand is evidence that brutal control techniques (or sadistic pleasure seeking) are rife in this particular facility. This may account for the prisoner's trembling.

Paragon Illusions - Acquiescence |
A young man prepares for his first fetish experience. His hands are clasped behind his back, submissively anticipating restraint, but his teacher has decided that first he must learn unquestioning obedience and so, symbolically, he gags him. No questioning now, no answering back.
Great image!

Paragon Illusions - Weekend Play Toy |
On a lonely road at night an expensive car draws up. A man gets out and stands, looking around. Then he begins to take off his expensive clothes - his jacket and tie, his trousers and shirt, carefully folding them all and storing them in the boot of the car (the trunk). After a second or two of hesitation, he takes off his underpants too and drops them on top of the pile.
Next he opens the box that was delivered to him that morning. He takes from it a length of chain, winds it tightly round his ankles, as instructed, and secures it with a padlock, making very sure that the chains are tight, because he doesn't have the key to release them for a second attempt. He takes a second length of chain from the box and winds it round his wrists, which is more difficult, he has to use his mouth as well for this, but he practiced it (as instructed) before he left home. This time though he has to finish by closing the padlock, After that there will be no going back.
His decision made, he closes the boot-lid and hobbles round to the front of the car to wait, standing between the headlights. It's a cold, cloudless night and he shivers. He arrived a little early, wanting to be sure he had time to do everything just right. The man who is collecting him is probably watching him right now, but he won't show himself before the pre-arranged time. He may even turn up late, that is his prerogative. They have the whole weekend in front of them.
In the first two fantasies, the subs offered themselves up completely naked. Clubland pick-ups usually come ready-packed in leather gear so it's a rare luxury for the top to be able to clothe a new acolyte to suit himself, in his own taste. For the newcomer, spread naked and waiting in the dungeon chains for the scene to begin, the buckling of someone else's harness tight across his chest, entrusting him to wear it, is an exciting expression of acceptance. The securing of the top's chastity device between nervous legs is an unsubtle assertion of his total control. These introductions complete, he is free to assess the man at his disposal for what is about to unfold.
There's an inter-generational element to this image which changes a conventional 'training' scenario into something more interesting, with genuine mentorship and learning.

Paragon Illusions - Board Bound |
The training of mature men is no less exciting than instructing the uninitiated young. In fact, maturity and bulk in a sub add a suggestion of humbled pride to his act of unforced submission. This top seems to be making the most of it, pausing to observe the sub's reactions before securing the fourth and final limb in the fetters. He's clad his student in a bulky steel collar and mounted him on an uncomfortable, crude but strong open frame in symbolic containment of his superior, physical size.
Now he can start to assess his inner strength and devise his training strategy.
Beards on young and older men have become more favoured in recent years and this artists work reflects that with a pleasing spread of ages and nice balance between realism and ideals in body types. His participants all look different and, in their own way, desirable.

Paragon Illusions - Dare Taken |
A strikingly attractive man bends his partner over a leather horse to make him pay a hot bottom forfeit. Somehow the artist has managed to capture a good sense of his forcefulness and their struggle.
The playful title here implies an equality of status that isn't evident in the imagery, with the shaving of a man's head being a classic degradation technique. Some subs do it for themselves which seems to miss the point and undermines a top's control. Perhaps that is the 'dare' at the heart of this piece.

Paragon Illusions - Disappointment |
This misty image is a beautiful statement of forced submission. It owes a great deal of course to the imagery of captured agents and interrogation chairs in spy thrillers where the audience is split between those who fear their hunky hero is about to experience unpleasantness and those who desperately hope he will. That source does not detract from this artist's interpretation, the muscular captive's bowed head here is particularly expressive. However, it does make the adaptation to a leather/biker scenario a little confusing.
You can interpret this as a biker gang boss rebuking an underling for a mission failure, but a studded paddle would be an unlikely interrogation tool for such a man, particularly when faced with a seated captive. In the fetish world, folding chairs like this are more likely to be found in the wrestling ring than a dungeon.
The artist's title is typical of his work, suggesting a deeply involved, consensual but strictly hierarchical power relationship between these two men. It seems to have gone off-script here with the dominant partner left nursing a bruised lip having been obliged to reassert his control. The remedy seems to be to sit the cowed offender down for a dose of Daddy talk (laced with emotional blackmail) after which he will agree to lower his thick leather pants for a spanking he'll never forget.
Whether you buy that or not, it's still a great picture.

Paragon Illusions - Factory Fantasy |
The mysterious imagery of abandoned factories has a special place in the world of fetish where the vast, enclosed but neglected spaces and their trappings of chains, machines, furnaces and mobile cranes provide a wealth of intimidating atmosphere and kit for any would-be dominator. The setting was memorably featured in the Zeus 'Steel Dungeon' videos (1995) while 'Shooting the Past' by Priapus (2017) provides a gentler, more recent example.
Paragon's take on the theme captures the spooky essence of the setting rather well, with the dark, misty lighting and invading undergrowth creating up a great sense of remoteness and isolation, that guarantees privacy for the protagonists or, if you prefer, eliminates any chance of rescue. His title cleverly damps down any suggestion of impropriety in what is about to happen whilst leaving the story of how this man came to be here naked and chained and his relationship (if any) with his 'captor' cloaked in ambiguity.
The natural world in this piece becomes an even more active participant in the fetish experience, with a sub forced to stand outside, naked in (sleety-looking) rain. His top watches him from the warmth of their sitting room, able to enjoy his discomfort but also the embellishing effect of the gleaming water on his skin tones. It's very reminiscent of the work of Okawa and other Japanese fetish artists who put their subs out in the snow. I'm glad to say Paragon's victim looks a a good deal older and more than able to look after himself. This is one of my favourite images by this artist.
The artist's commentaries visualise a consensual contract that permits this sort of humiliation as a honourable, character-enhancing experience for the sub, much as Military Training does. Amalaric by contrast is rather good at thinking up other, thoroughly disreputable ways to persuade strong men to do want they wouldn't do otherwise.

Brian Lamprill and Tibor Urgay in a sexy stalemate for Royale |
I've just added an interim post of Royale Studio's set from 1959 showing Brian Lamprill and Tibor Urgay wrestling in the nude, well sort of wrestling, but it's sexy stuff. The men are genuinely nude and the contortions required to avoid frontal exposure are sexy in themselves. To the best of my knowledge this group has never been assembled since Royale folded. The entry only contains half of the 14 pictures in the archive at the moment, but the rest will be added in the next few days.
There's also a slightly controversial set showing Lamprill posing solo in a WW2 German helmet. You can locate it by clicking on Lamprill's 'model index' link in the right sidebar of the blog.
The Royale Studio favourite 'Unapproved School' is the latest upgrade to articles previously posted at the mitchmen blog. It's No 8 in the storyette list. Again it's an interim post covering Part 1 only. The rest to follow shortly.
If you are interested in the history and background of Royale Studio, there have also been updates to the 'Royale Studio Timeline' post at the blog which charts how it all started, how Hussar studio was spun off and when it ended after a spectacular career. There's a new article about 110 Denbigh St which is where Royale was based for it's whole existence and an enquiry into the location of the garden used for shots in 'Unapproved School' and other early Royale sets.

Classic Homoerotic Images 8
This joyous image by Colt of a leather man joyfully celebrating his sexuality and the freedom to express it marked the high point of 'liberation' around 1980 when anything seemed possible. Men who didn't subscribe to this magazine probably saw the cover advertised. It couldn't have failed to warm the cockles of their heart. Despite the leather referencing, it seems to embrace the whole gay community, what gay men shared rather than what differentiated them. It was an assertion that gay men were masculine, happy and balanced as individuals.

Colt - Gene Winchester |
The full image, seen in this slightly different variant, was rather more racy, more assertively gay you might say. Gene Winchester clutching his crotch and failing to hide a generous bush of pubic hair. You might see PlayGuy's 1978 cover adaptation as a cop-out, but it's actually rather effective at implying what you don't see and they did have a full-frontal, centre page spread of this model inside.
This magazine, by aping the title of the famously 'acceptable' heterosexual publication, represented a stab at equalisation, an attempt to secure a permanent place for gay magazines on the 'normal' bookshelves, away from the sleazy top shelf. Consequently the contents rarely lived up to the promise of the cover. It did managed to survive, however, without further compromise until 2009 by which time the boys of Bel Ami had elbowed Colt musclemen out of the way.
I adapted this imagery myself in one of my early pictures - see next post.
