Spacron - Don't Forget Your Prostate Exam

Spacron seems to delight in embarrassing men of a certain type - i.e. chunky, hairy and straight-acting. There are two examples in the opening pictures of Part 1 of this survey. However, every man, even butch construction workers and the like, should have their prostate checked as they get older so this medical scenario is a totally legitimate excuse - or at least it is as long as the Doctor behaves himself. 

The patient here seems to look askance at his dangling cock, probably wondering (if he's true to dumb-jock stereotyping) why that is needed for a rectal examination. You can hardly blame the Doctor, though, since his patient is already anticipating his first penetration with what looks like excitement rather than dread.

Interestingly, the eye chart on the wall is back to front. That might be because the artist decided to reverse the image for aesthetic reasons, however the text on the weighing machine and the device on the wall with an electronic time display are not reversed. Whether by accident or design it helps create a sense of a crazy, parallel universe where normal behaviour (like a Doctor respecting his patients and using only one finger for a prostate examination) is turned on it's head.


Spacron - Comrades

The sight of a naked man being carried off by a soldier might spark thoughts of enslavement, pillage etc for some, but the title tells us of a more honourable motivation - the rescue of a comrade-in-arms. Quite why he is totally naked isn't clear. The obvious explanation is that he had been captured and tortured (or abused at least). His rescuer's bare top and sagging trousers also speak of privation and extremity but give the image a remarkably sexy twist. 

The bleak wasteland behind them looks like it must be a very hot and desolate place. The glow on the horizon, partially hidden by smoke or clouds might be the sun rising on another arid day in the desert. But it could equally be a distant battle, still continuing as they make their escape to safety and - dare one suggest - mutual consolation? Before that though, this hero faces another day of trying to survive and keep his comrade alive with him.

This is another example of this artist's talent for choosing simple images which laud the qualities of men while infusing them with a touch of the homoerotic.


Spacron - DDT Inverted

A wrestling scenario readily provides opportunities for depicting the humiliation of big, butch men. This backwards leaning, reverse head-lock is more common in erotic wrestling than the Pro version and like most holds that stress the back, it's potentially dangerous. That threat makes it extremely effective as a way of detaining an opponent in a very erotic pose since a sensible victim knows he must exercise caution in trying to escape. 

The artist has chosen to imagine the fighters in the nude and made them very sweaty. He's given them a glittery finish that doesn't look quite real but creates the effect of a special type of fight in which bodily display is as important as fighting prowess. He's not only dispensed with the customary showy costumes but the other distracting paraphernalia of wrestling as well, reducing it to a basic ring (with intriguing twisted ropes). In other words he's deliberately extracted a simpler image to create a striking, erotically-flavoured tableau.

The DDT in the title of this piece puzzled me but it seems to simply refer to a Japanese Wrestling Circuit, called Dramatic Dream Team which deliberately parodies WWE (if such a thing is possible). That connection may have inspired the unusual skin finish.

Looking back at the previous image 'Comrades', you might spot another inspiration from wrestling.


Spacron - Speleologist meets the Beast

The two military comrades we saw above were probably not fleeing from this situation, although the unfortunate man being upended here also has an attractive military look about him. Speleologist means the study or exploration of caves by the way, in case you didn't know, I certainly didn't! So this picture might be subtitled as 'Cave man meets The Cave Man'. 

It looks like we're looking at an Indiana Jones type of scenario here. While exploring with his trusty hammer and pencil, he's stumbled across a strange, subterranean room of some grandeur. It's the find of a lifetime, but then he discovers to his horror that it's inhabited by an enormous, hairy beast (we've all been there). 

The creature is unexpectedly wearing a leather fetish head cage or muzzle (á la Hannibal Lector) suggesting he's being held a captive for the public good. Our hero hardly has time to register that odd detail before his clothes are ripped from his body and at this point seem to have disappeared altogether (yet surely the yeti can't have eaten them all!). Only his singlet vest remains, clinging alluringly to his sweaty torso (and very nicely modelled too by the artist). It might have been better if it hadn't since one senses that this torso-flattering garment has inflamed the desire of the sex-starved creature and the rest (as they say) is buggery.

This is a very idiosyncratic picture which defies rational explanation but is nevertheless a great domination scenario. This composition also seems to be based on a wrestling move, the standing ankle lock submission hold, but adapted it to a more devious purpose. Once again there's an essential simplicity and balance in the composition which is very satisfying.


Spacron - Tied Up in the Woods

Spacron has an eclectic taste in skin colourings and races and these two stand at the extremes of that range. The white guy here is so pale that his jet-black hair seems genetically impossible but I have seen men like this. His face is a remarkable blend of the manly and cute and despite his plight his expression shows surprise and curiosity rather than fear. Spacron's varied faces are another laudable feature of his work, showing an attention to personality that renderers often neglect in favour of the action. 

The dark skinned local resident wearing a skimpy loincloth is a tricky stereotype these days but there's no sense of patronisation here just the meeting of sexy men from two different worlds. It seems like they share a common strand of sexuality, since the captive seems completely undaunted by his predicament. 

This image has been sanitised in an unusual way which is easier with a render than conventional fixed art. The native's hand is shaped and held as though to grasp his erection aiming at the captive's ass, but the cock itself is missing. 


Spacron - Josh in the clutches of the 'Ndrangheta*

A classic 'hero in trouble' predicament with a naïve-looking 'Josh' tied up and naked in the hub of an organised crime gang and facing torture to persuade him to 'spill'. To the right, oodles of money and gold on open display provide an ominous indicator of what is at stake and surely lessen his chances of ever getting away to tell of it. To the left, a selection of instruments available to torment him if the weight on his tackle and the hammer poised above it don't do the trick. 

The files in the background suggest a 'business' of some complexity demanding serious record keeping. In the wrong hands it's also seriously incriminating evidence, in all probability. If Josh didn't know 'too much' before, he must do now.

Josh doesn't look the type to be a threat to this sinister pair by design, but they obviously believe he knows something. Whatever the case it looks like the die is irrevocably cast unless there's a rescuer to hand. Imagine Josh's gratitude then! Any offers?

*The 'Ndrangheta is a prominent Italian, Mafia-type organised crime syndicate based in Calabria


Spacron - Crimes of Passion

This extraordinary picture flirts with the taboo of death more explicitly. A scantily-clad man points a gun at a couple lying piled on top of each other on a bed. They appear to be either dead or unconscious. A book lies open on the bed as though hinting at a deep motivation. The industrial room styling also hints at darker interests. However the unnatural arrangement of the bodies suggests a third party involvement. 

It's not clear if the gunman has just arrived and discovered them or is responsible for their fate himself and the title does not shed much light on that. In any event he holds the gun in the manner of a professional, wary in case they might be able to get up and attack him. 

For me, the most erotic aspect of the image is the gunman's smoothly muscular physique and his white satin G-string which makes a strong case for the garment as legitimate attire (despite the legacy of less snazzy usage from the 1950's). It's sexy nature might point to a personal involvement in the narrative but it's equally possible he's just rushed in from his bed in an adjacent flat having heard some noise as these two met their fate. I wish he lived next to me!


Spacron - TJ Forced (Part 2)

The final image is part of a series in which a Police suspect, 'TJ', is arrested, stripped and forced to gratify his interrogators. TJ himself is another memorable character but his tormentor's stock, Police uniforms and skin tight shirts are less successful. That contrast however serves to focus us on TJ's admirable physical attributes and the poignancy of his forced, naked submission. The flying in-tray suggests he's applying himself to the unwanted task with great vigour. You can see Part 1 at the DeviantArt link below.
