None for tonight; feeling a bit burnt out. Check by tomorrow though; I might continue off then!

The pleasure is all mine! Got some nice sequential stuff from some pretty cool artists. I look forward to what you've got in store in the future.

Well, just got here for the first time, and gotta say that your work is tremendous. Clearly doing this kind of stuff is tough, especially if one want's to do more than freehand pen and ink...but even if not, bondage art, to be done well, is truly hard work. And the artists you respect are exactly the one's I've come to respect, as well.
It's my hope that you won't give up on the genre. The work you've posted here shows really skilled portrayal of posture, rigging, and even some interesting facial expression (above those gags, at least), and there's a lot of room for you to play with your talent.
Anyway, thought you'd like to know that one more viewer (even if late to the showing) had a positive aesthetic reaction to your work here.

I'm going to humor you with a year-late response, but no that wasn't your first time here haha. We had a bit of a mix-up before, though I may have been using a different username at that point.
Keep an eye out though. You might be in for some surprises soon.

Yes indeed, different username.
Delighted to get your reply, however long the delay. I'll be checking for your work, surprising or not!!

No problem. Always have enjoyed your artworks, kinky ones or not. Your drawing skills are pretty damn solid if you ask me.

Would have known what you meant if you left it at just that, hahaha.

Jeff,
Visiting here for the first time, and really admired the work you've posted. I also respect you for not only citing your influences very carefully, but giving credit to line-artists you use to colorize and adapt. (I'm hoping, though, that you've also asked them for permission. It's the right thing to do, but you don't explicitly say that you have.)
It's clear that you're quite dedicated to perfecting your work, and it's also quite clear that you're rapidly developing as an artist. More power to you, I say.
I'm looking forward to returning soon.

I'm sort of not sure what you mean with the line artists portion. Correct me if I'm confused about what you are saying, but all the artwork here is my own painting over my own drawings. Unless you are either referring to the study I did of one of Captive2D's artworks--which I did get permission for--or the collaboration between Weber and I--in which I painted over both his drawing and mine, as agreed in the collab--or the paintchat with Suichi, Ankhrono, and WossaRem--which is something the four of us decided to do for fun (and no, I don't claim all of the artworks as my own, but since I was the one who gathered the paintchat session, I figured I'd be the one to post up everyone's drawings).
Unless it's a collaboration with another artist, I do my own drawings and paintings. I apologize if something in my gallery confuses you in that sense, or if I'm confused by your wording--specifically, "colorize and adapt," because I usually don't do that with other people's artworks, but instead take inspiration and techniques from artists better than I to better my own craft and understanding--like looking at 's artwork to understand how he handles low-key torch lighting (to which--as he had explained to me--he has done the same by looking at masterpieces done by Rembrandt).
Sorry if the tone of this reply sounds a bit defensive. I am a little confused and not sure what to think after reading parts of your comment. I am glad you like what you see in my gallery, though! Thanks for the kind words, and sorry for any of the confusion

I think the confusion is mine, and probably stems from trying to interpret your comments below the images. I don't have the exact wording in front of me, but to me your phrasing of where the inspiration for some of your work comes from seems on first reading to suggest that it was someone else's original drawing that you've adapted, etc. I suspect my interpretation is wrong, based on what you wrote me. So my apologies for the misconstrual.
It might be worth double-checking the language you use, just to make sure that silly fast-readers like me don't get hung up on any ambiguity.
Again, apologies.

Great gallery! I love how you draw spider silk, it just looks so all-engulfing, rengering the victims completely helpless (especially in this work: [link] )

Thank you for your kind words. I'd like to think that it's my art education working out for me. But really, I still have a lot to learn.

We all have to constantly learn and improve, that's what makes it interesting.

I don't know...it's kind of weird. You seem to be very well-established among the DiD/bondage artists here. And one of the better ones too. I usually don't really expect these people to check my gallery.
Then again, maybe I'm just not making any sense haha

Huh. Didn't realize that xD.
Well I checked your gallery cause of your SN. It showed an art stle I really liked, and I wanted to see if you were the culprit for it!

Haha, thanks!
Whoops. I probably should have put something else as the feature, haha. Figured someone would get creeped out. I will say that webs are a lot of fun to render.
Don't worry, I'll do some other kinky art too. Promise :V
