The first post! ... And an introduction~

Greetings everyone! This is the first blog post in my new blog "Erika's House of Hypnosis" woo! I wanted this first post to be a quick introduction about this blog and why it exists in the first place.

So to start off some of you may know me and others may not. If you follow some hypnosis based fetish art you might've seen me around. I'm that one blonde and black haired girl that shows up every now and then. I've just commissioned or been gifted many pieces of art featuring myself over the years so if you've seen me around in multiple works that'd be why.
 
Originally I would gather all works on the website Hypnohub but over the years due to policy changes and some other issues I've had, I ended up distancing myself from that site. I kind of wanted a place where I have control over what goes up and stays up and so I decided to start up this blog. I'm not really looking for popularity so I don't mind if this blog falls into obscurity, or if no one even reads this introductory message. In the end I just want a place where I can store all the Erika works that have shown up over the years without fear of them being purged without my say in it.
 
 The way this blog will work is pretty much I'll be uploading all the media related to me that I've accumulated over the years in chronological order (or at least my best attempt at chronological order) with a bit of a blurb at the bottom from myself giving the reader a bit of insight into the picture if possible. I hope you enjoy your stay here!
 
 Oh and while I will be uploading future commissions and the like here that doesn't mean I'm against someone else reposting them onto the Hub. I personally will not be posting there but if you wish to upload pictures of me there or just lifting pieces from here onto there I don't mind whatsoever. I still like the Hub after all!

And finally I wanted to give a special shout out to Keeper of Pots for helping me out immensely with the start up of this blog. The header, background, and profile picture were all designed by him. He also helped come up with the title and helped me with technical issues when starting this out, so mad props to him!
 
(PS. Don't mind the publish date of this post. You can't edit the order of posts on this site so the best you can do is edit the publish date. I just want this introductory message to be the first thing that shows up.)
 

Vampire Ladies: The Sequel's Sequel.


Greetings all! Before we get into today's blog post, I'm sure that all three of you who actually follow this blog have noticed that I haven't updated since... Last year. That's saying something, considering we are currently in August of this year! 2024 has been a very busy year for me in both good and bad ways, so unfortunately the blog has kind of fallen to the wayside a bit. That being said, I should be back on schedule now and I have a renewed goal to try and catch up to current posts sooner rather than later. So in other words, instead of a Sunday weekly update, I'll try and post more frequently. Keep an eye out if you're interested!

But to be more on topic, we are continuing the trend of Erika x Rachel Alucard x Shalltear Bloodfallen, AKA the vampire loli duo! I can't really go more in depth on the pairing than I already have in previous posts, but it's safe to say that this was certainly THE pairing for me back in 2016. It's kind of surprising even to myself as to how frequently this pairing showed up now that I'm going back and looking through all the posts in sequential order.

All that being said though, this picture was not designed by me nor did I have any involvement with the creative process. Once again this lovely picture was created all by Zorro on his own. As I'd mentioned before, the original in this trilogy of pictures by Zorro I had mentioned that I liked these two characters and that's about it. Afterwards not only did Zorro create a picture all his own, but managed to weave the narrative into a full blown trio of pictures when in the end I would've been satisfied with just the one. Goes to show how awesome of a guy Zorro is!

In this scene, we have the sequel to the last picture where I've already been reforged into a vampire minion and now I'm having a wild orgy with the two vampire loli mistresses. Gotta have some foot action in there too to make it complete of course. Overall the idea behind the picture is really hot and it's a nice way to conclude the set of images. Unfortunately I do feel like the anatomy is a bit off in this picture, but that's never really so bad that it'd ruin anything. Though funnily enough, I did notice looking back on all three pictures that in each piece there was one detail that felt "off" to me, and each one involving a different character. Shalltear in the first, Rachel in the second, and now myself in the third.

All that being said though, the positives far outweigh the negatives and I have nothing else but praise for not only this image but all the previous pictures in the set that Zorro made! Just like the Hypno Raptor set, he went above and beyond my expectations to deliver something so memorable to me that it exists in my mind eight years later! ... Oh god, it's been eight years. That's crazy. I really do need to work on the pace of this blog, so for those following be sure to check out updates!

"You are feeling 16-bit."

Greetings again everyone! This week we're back with a simple yet effective piece. As we can see, it's myself, naked, and hypnotized by a shiny coin with a bit of drool action going on. Though as you can see, the thing that stands out about this picture is that it's some beautiful pixel art here. Can you by any chance tell who the artist is just by looking at it?

 Well, I'll reveal it here: The artist is the always amazing Zko! Yeah, despite him being a solid artist, it turns out he's super good at pixel art too. Though those of you who have seen his art work nowadays probably know this. Some of his most well known works are his pixel animations. At the time however, Zko hadn't really done any pixel at all. In fact, the reason why this picture even exists in the first place is because Zko wanted to practice doing a pixel project and asked if he could use me as the model.

Naturally I'd never turn down and offer like that, and in the end we got this simple, yet ever awesome picture. There's something about pixel art that always appeals to me, maybe because I grew up on pixel art games or something, but I think having a well done pixel art picture just feels awesome. I even like how he didn't miss the detail of adding my belly button piercing and even got my hair style somewhat accurate.

In the future, Zko would go on to make far more elaborate pictures and animations using this medium, as I've mentioned earlier. Some of which will be showing up in this blog at some point in the future too, so look forward to it! And as a last bit of credit, the name of this post comes from a comment made by Mindwipe on the Hub. I found it amusing, and as you may know, I suck with titles anyways.

Two Vampires, One Erika... Again.

Greetings all! Apologies for the late blog post, I've actually been on vacation for a bit there. But now we're finally back, and continuing our somewhat regularly scheduled posts. Though hey, you know what HASN'T been gone for awhile? The classic Rachel Alucard x Shalltear Bloodfallen x myself! I told you that you'd be seeing it again soon right?

As we are still in the loli vampire arc of my life, it's not surprising to see this pairing once again. However the twist for this piece is that it's done by the always awesome Etlabsotwe! There really isn't much to say in terms of how this picture came to be however. At the time Etlabsotwe was trying to get in a new picture of me every month, and when it came time to do that, I suggested this pair. Because I mean, of course I did.

That being said, as per usual Erika fashion, I didn't decide on anything other than the characters. The setting, posing, and everything really was all decided and done by the artist. Definitely turned out super cute, though that's usually to be expected. Also, a shout out for using a different shirt than normal. That is also a shirt I own in real life, and while Etlabsotwe has drawn me in it before, no other artist has. So it definitely makes his pieces feel more organic in the fact that I'm changing clothes.

Overall, as I said earlier: this is just a comfy and cute piece with my favorite flavor pair of 2016. As a minor side note though, I shared this image with Keeper of Pots before I posted it here, and he asked if Rachel actually wore socks like that. And honestly... I don't know. No official art really shows her legs, and she either has shoes or is barefoot. So Keeper out there asking the real questions...

Sisalian Conversion.

Greetings again everyone! This week we have a rather unique take on myself, but even with the different look, she's still me! I think. Anyways, we have a picture by Medrifogmatio, someone whom we haven't seen a bit on this blog. You might know him as the owner of the blue skinned alien hypno bait OC named Kassidy! And actually, that race of aliens that Medri owns are called Sisailians. Which brings us to our picture here.

Awhile back, Medri opened up a unique form of commission that I don't believe I've seen replicated all too frequently. I've seen regular commissions, character raffles, YCHs, and the like! But I haven't seen commissions specifically to taking someone's OC and transforming them into something else specifically. And that's exactly what this was. As we can see, it was a limited time themed commission of turning characters into his specific race of alien.

The idea seemed fun, and while transformation isn't really my kink, I didn't quite see it as that. Just more like an alternate take on myself perhaps? And with that being said, I hopped on the bandwagon and ordered a commission from him. Naturally featuring myself of course.
 
Despite this being a themed commission though, of course Medri allowed the commissioners to choose the skin color as well as the tattoos/skin patterns they would have. I opted to go with yellow and black to more or less match the hair I usually have my self insert use. And as for the body patterns, I opted for spirals because... well, I'm sure you can tell! Though funnily enough, these commissions weren't inherently meant to be hypnosis based.

While Medri himself is a well known hypno artist, these commissions were just OCs being turned into Sisailians. I never once asked Medri to make the Sisailian version of me to be zonked out and hypnotized, he just kind of added that detail on his own. But it was definitely a welcome one! If he didn't add it, I would've said so of course, but the initiative was very much appreciated. I also have to give him props for the huge amount of lubricants I'm leaking down there. Makes it look extra hot!

So all in all a straightforward and fun commission. Not something we'll be seeing here all too much, but I still look back on it fondly. I don't know if this version of myself will ever appear again, but I can say that there are a few other alternate takes on myself that will be showing up on the blog at some point!

Two Vampires, One Erika.

Hello again! We're back this week with the current flavor pairing, myself and vampire lolis! To be exact, it is once again Rachel Alucard from Blazblue, and Shalltear Bloodfallen from Overlord. This time however, it is drawn by the ever awesome Keeper of Pots! Not only that, but this time it's something that I personally commissioned. So I should at least have some interesting tidbits of information to say on it!

That being said, there isn't really a fancy story as to how or why this commission came to be. Keeper just had a queue for commissions at the time, and it happened to be my turn. Since this pairing was the flavor at the time, naturally it's what the subject of the commission would be!
However, since this is a picture by Keeper of Pots who I am in contact with, I did manage to get his quote on the picture. So let's see what he has to say before we get into the nitty gritty of it.

"I don’t recall a lot of the specifics regarding this piece - I’m fairly sure it was a commission during the time Erika was still very much into this particular vampire pairing. I recall it took me a little while to get you to look decent enough, Erika… but looking back at it, I’m still not 100% satisfied with how you came out. There are some little perspective pet peeves like the way the head is angled, and the breasts.

The rest of the piece works pretty good though, I’d say! I love how Rachel and Shalltear came out, particularly their expressions and I have a fondness for discarded clothing being visible in the picture. I added some flourishes to the image that wasn’t specified in the commission to liven things up a bit as well, like the tea kettle, bed and Rachel’s little imp bat.

I also love the “trope” (or whatever you’d call it) of a sub being subjugated by pleasure, so this was all in all a pretty fun one, despite some snafus regarding the Erika design."
 
 It's funny though, because to me, I have a different memory of how this commission went. This commission in particular sticks out to me because of how many changes and slight revisions it went through. Keeper of Pots is a very patient man, but even he was getting tired of the revisions it went though. If I recall, he was even saying that we physically could not do anymore changes to a certain part of the picture. This is because at the time, Keeper of Pots drew pictures traditionally at first, and the paper was being frayed from too many erasure marks.

And even after all that, there are actually a few things on this picture that still stand out to me that I'd like changed, not even counting Keeper's mention of the off model version of myself! For one, Shalltear's discarded shoes aren't right, but it's not too big a deal. Also, we didn't have a room reference in mind. I just kind of left it at: "A bedroom in Rachel's mansion" and we ended up with a dungeon looking area. (Funnily enough, a few years later and we'd actually see what Rachel's room looks like. Oops.) And as Keeper said, he did fill out the room with the random objects in there, but the pillar in the background felt weird to me, since that's just a structurally weird place to have a pillar.
 
Despite that though, I still do look back on this picture very fondly, and it's up there on one of my favorite vampire loli drawings of the time! Since I was in creative control here, I don't know how I couldn't end up loving a picture catered to my kinks as well as it being drawn by one of my favorite artists of all time! So despite some hiccups, I'd say that I'm still very satisfied with this picture even years later. Maybe one of these days I should look into this pairing again... it's been awhile after all! But until then, you'll still be seeing these characters quite a bit in the upcoming entries.

Making New Friends.

Greetings all! We're back this week with the first drawing from a very close artist to me. That's right, this weeks picture is by none other than the amazing artist and great friend Myuk! We also have a slight collaboration with another fantastic artist, Keeper of Pots. He was the one to have the colored version of the picture featured here. Now that I think about it, it's pretty interesting that two of my favorite artists and closest friends of all time are collabing here like this.

Back in 2016, I remember browsing Hypno Hub one day, as I did every day, and out of nowhere I saw a few pictures posted from an unknown artist showing up on the front page. They were all done traditionally, so there were unfortunately left uncolored, but nevertheless I was incredibly impressed with what I saw. So much so, that while it may have been shameless of me, I immediately sent that artist a private message welcoming them abd asking if by any chance they would be interested in drawing me. Luckily for me, not only were they willing to draw me, but apparently that had already known of me before hand.

Yes, that artist would eventually grow to become one of my closest friends, and someone whom I still talk to almost every day: Myuk! And since I'm still in contact with him, I managed to get a bit of blurb from him about this piece here:

"Back then, i was a lurker on the hub, taking peeks at all the hypno arts. I noticed a lot of drawings of you on the hub which caught my eye and I liked them a lot ~ then when I started posting drawings of my own, you messaged me about how you liked my artstyle. At the time, i was pretty star struck and excited that you noticed me because I was just a nobody at the time and seeing all the erika drawings made me think you must be pretty popular on the hub. So, at that moment, I wanted to draw you with my ocs ~ I didn't have a particular idea, but I always like very claustrophobic/intimate sex scenes and thought it would be super hot seeing erika getting overwhelmed with licks, tentacles, tails, cute girls; just steamy yuri sex lol.
In hindsight, there isn't clear hypnosis in the pic, unless you count inma's tail with aphrodisiac juices"
 
As mentioned there, the other characters in this picture are Myuk's OCs. Febe, Joyce, and Inma. You'll definitely be seeing more of them upcoming on the blog at some point as well. However, while that story may end here, there is in fact more to it to that. I did say earlier that Keeper of Pots made the colored version of this picture! As for how that came to be, Myuk himself was looking for assistance in coloring some of his pictures. A mutual friend of mine, and someone we've seen on this blog before: Psi, ended up taking up his request and colored on of Myuk's pieces.

However the piece Psi ended up coloring wasn't this one. Of course it was up to him on whatever he wanted to color, but I did feel kind of sad he didn't pick the Erika one, because back then I was rather selfish. So I asked Keeper of Pots if he would be willing to color this piece, and he was awesome enough to oblige my silly request. So we now have this awesome collab that, while maybe didn't come about under the most noblest of circumstances, I'm still very happy something like this exists.

And fun fact, for those of you aware of Joyce, Myuk's OC. You'd see that her hair is brown here instead of the usual dark blue. That's because at the time, Myuk didn't actually have a clear cut idea of what her hair color would be. I specifically asked him at the time, and he said brown. However since then, her hair has been changed to the dark blue that you all know today.

Vampire Ladies: The Sequel.

Hello all! I know a few posts ago I said we may be seeing an update on this series soon... but who would've thought it was about one post apart? Not unlike the Hypno Raptor series, Zorro once again does not disappoint with the sheer amount of speed that he can produce awesome hypnosis pieces! And with that, we have the second iteration of myself and some gothic vampire lolitas. I hope you aren't tired of them yet, because this was the phase where I was commissioning them a lot! And we'll definitely be seeing more.

Though despite Zorro's speed at producing pictures, I do recall him mentioning that he was having a lot of anatomy and posing problems with this piece. He expressed that he wanted to try more dynamic poses in this picture, and he also felt like he wasn't quite satisfied with the final result. There's definitely no perfect picture out there and there can always be improvement, but honestly, I don't think this picture is all that bad in terms of anatomy and the like!
 
Once again, I had no say in the contents of the picture and it was something that Zorro came up with on his own. I mention that specifically because in this picture, it seems as if I've been turned into a vampire in between this piece and the first one. For the record, even though I really do like vampires, I've never actually found the concept of being turned INTO a vampire to be super attractive. I'm not against it at all, but I find just the concept of vampires (and especially loli vampires) attractive. Not necessarily the part of becoming an undead myself you know?

That, and I'm also a stickler when it comes to lore. I've mentioned before, I try to keep the characters in my pictures to be as consistent as possible with their source material. While both Shalltear and Rachel can both canonically hypnotize, neither one are too well known for turning others into vampires. Rachel more or less swore to never do it, and has only turned one person in her lore. Shalltear, however, is definitely more likely to do so, but probably only under the command of her lord. Though since Shalltear would probably be able to, I'm not too frazzled by the whole thing. And there's your mini lore lecture from me I suppose!

But yes, yet another picture of the loli vampire duo. Definitely not the first, and absolutely not the last. And much like the previous time, we may or may not be seeing a sequel to this piece in the near future. Probably more of a wait than this time though. That being said, there are probably going to be a lot more of this duo in the near future not by Zorro though. Just saying.

Fusion Confusion.

Greetings all! I uhh... Don't really know how to really get into this one to be honest! It's arguably not even an Erika picture... but it also kind of is? Well, either way, let's talk about it shall we?
 
For those of you familiar with Zko's works, chances are you've seen a fan favorite character Mrs. Erickson. She's the busty dommy teacher from Skypenotized and other various lewd works around. She's also been featured in this blog at one point as well. Fun fact, the reason her name is "Mrs. Erickson" is because it's a reference to Dr. Milton Erickson who is considered the father of hypnotherapy. That, and of course the Ericksonian hypnosis technique he founded.

Another fun fact for you guys is... My name is Erika. Spooky, I know. Did you know that "Erika" and "Erickson" sound rather similar? I certainly realized it at least! And... that's literally the back story for this picture! One day I was just having a casual conversation with Zko, and I mentioned that Erickson and Erika sounded similar. "What about a Mrs. Erikason!? The ultimate hypnosis dom and sub!" I said. And then Zko just randomly drew up this sketch on the spot.

For those of you who actually talk to me, you'd know that I tend to randomly like combining words that actually fit with each other. Or at the very least, I like to mix certain words with my name. Not unlike the "Yanderika" post from awhile back! So this was definitely not an unusual scenario, but I didn't expect the random spur of the moment joke to turn into a character or a drawing. Then again, the same thing happened with Yanderika... I swear, this isn't a common thing though!

And speaking of uncommon, this is the first and the last we'll see of Mrs. Erikason unfortunately. This was 100% just a joke post and nothing ever really came from her... at least at the time of writing this blog post. But honestly, writing this post kind of made me feel nostalgic so maybe we could find some place for her somewhere? Even as a cameo? Who knows! Only time will tell...

Vampire Ladies.

Hello again! This week we're back with the start of a series that I never actually expected to be a series... The Vampire Ladies! Not unlike last time, Zorro has once again not only surprised me with this picture, but also managed to turn it into something so much more. Though I suppose I'm getting a bit ahead of myself there. For now, let's focus on this entry here.

I mentioned a few posts ago that I'm a huge fan of vampires (and lolis) so naturally, I'd become a huge fan of Rachel Alucard from Blazblue. We've of course seen her a few times on this blog already, but now we have a new comer! The other vampire goth loli featured in this picture is Shalltear Bloodfallen from the series Overlord. Around November of 2015, I had watched Overlord for the first time and it really struck a chord with me. I instantly fell in love with the series, and with Shalltear specifically. Heck, she even had a canonical hypnosis scene in the anime! I had to get a picture with her at some point...

And with that being said, sometime between finishing the anime back in 2015, and this picture being created (which was in February 2016) I must've definitely mentioned this to Zorro. To be perfectly honest, I don't actually remember how this specific piece came to be, but if I'm to trust my memory here... I recall him asking if I wanted another picture at some point. And well, this seemed like the perfect opportunity to mention my growing interest in vampire goth lolis!
 
As continuous readers of the blog know, I've never been the best when it comes to making specific ideas. So because of that, I didn't mention WHAT I wanted to do with the characters, and just that I wanted to be in a picture with them. So Zorro ended up coming up with the idea of having the two of them surrounding and hypnotizing me, plus a little bit of stripping for good measure! I do think Shalltear's face is a bit off in this picture, but either way, I was still super happy with the end result.
 
 Honestly, I'd already have been satisfied with this because it perfectly scratched my itch for what I was looking for. However as stated earlier, this picture would follow the same path as the Hypno Raptor in which this kind of evolved into a series too! So we can go more into that in future posts. Probably sooner than you'd think!

Hypno Team Issue 2: The Wake-up Call!

Hello everyone! Oh man, we are certainly late with today's blog post. For those of you interested, the release of a highly anticipated game hit in early July and I took a break from EVERYTHING to play as much of it as possible. Unfortunately, that means a lot of things in my life were put on hold, blog posts included! With that bit of context out of the way, let's officially start the post!

And what a post it is! This week's post is the second edition of the legendary team of girls who have the super power of being incredibly suggestible to hypnosis! That's right, it's The Hypno Team! Once again, the comic is done by the incredible artist, and good friend of mine Psi. Unlike issue one, which was an introduction to the team itself... it seems like issue two has it's own plot. Awake-san is up to no good, as she seems to be trying to wake up the whole town from their nice and relaxing trance! ... Wait a second.

All jokes aside, I have to give props to Psi once again here for making not only a really good (fake) comic cover, but also throwing a pretty funny joke as well. Though I think it might be spoiling the plot of the issue itself, assuming that was the plot twist. To be honest though, there isn't actually a lot for me to say here that hasn't already been said in the first issue. Such as Psi doing a great job managing to mimic that old timey look for comics, down to the grainy filter on the piece. I do approve of me being the one with the hypno ray, ready to re-induct the traitor!

I can say though, I bet a fair bit of people didn't think there'd be a second issue of a one-off joke that Psi made from checking who the most popular OC's were on Hypno Hub at the time. But well, here it is! There may or may not be more issues somewhere along the way as well, so keep your eyes peeled.
 
I would like to give a special shout out to Awake-san however. I think this is the first time she's showed up on the blog after all. Awake-san is the anti Hypno-tan essentially. Someone who hates sleep, and always strives to be awake! She's an original character developed by Keeper of Pots, EdgeOTM, and Psi. She's mostly used as a joke character, but she's also someone who we may or may not being seeing more at some point or anther.

Fight on, Hypno Team!

Incidents That Can Occur When Combining Christmass Cheer With Overly Suggestible Individuals.

Greetings again everyone! This week we have another issue in EdgeOTM's Hypnohub 4koma comics, and the second one to feature myself. Also, it just so happens to be Christmas themed! I did mention in a previous post that I'm not exactly the most festive person, but once again, I'm always happy to be included in mostly anything people wish to do so. Although I do admit it feels funny posting Christmas themed pictures right dab in the middle of summer.

As we can see here, the comic is about myself and Hypno-tan being being hypnotized by the shiny decorations on the tree, only to be brought back under quickly once again after being woken up! The idea itself is short but sweet, and really plays into the submissive side of myself and Hypno-tan with the jokingly high levels of suggestibility! It's also nice seeing a group of characters not usually featured kind of hanging around during Christmas. We actually have the personas of Psi, Edge, and Keeper all featured in the first panel. As well as Pompom in the last one!

I actually forgot to get a comment from Edge before posting this picture, so I'm not sure if there was any kind of specific inspiration for this piece. However, I can only assume that he just wanted to post something festive during the Christmas time of year and opted for this idea. I do know that he did previously contact me and ask if I was ok with being included in it though, and naturally I was happy to not only be drawn by a friend, but also in a funny and cute idea like this.

Also I never noticed this in all these years of this picture being public, but "suggestible" is actually spelled wrong in the title of this comic. I only found out now as I was writing out the title for this blog post! I was actually torn a bit between keeping the title of this post accurate to the comic, or fixing the spelling mistake. I opted for the latter in the end.

Post Shower Trancing.

Hello everyone! We're back this week with a new piece, this time by the returning face of Etlabsotwe! Definitely not a name that's new here, and one we will definitely be seeing more of in the future, Etlabsotwe has the amazing consistency of somehow being able to produce some of the cutest renditions of me. This weeks picture is no different, as we have myself suddenly being ambushed by a pesky yen swinging hypnotist right after a shower. However despite Eltabsotwe's consistency, this piece actually does bring something very new to the table for the artist.

It might not be as apparent for people who follow him currently, but way back in the day when this picture first debuted, Etlabsotwe was actually very against doing nudity of any kind. So with that being said, this is actually the very first picture by said artist to feature some topless and nipple action! Even though it's completely unrelated to the picture itself, it is nice seeing that bit of corruption in play as the artist starts to do more and more risque works. Plays right into the fetish after all!

The picture itself is straightforward as can be, but the animation really sells it. I especially love how smooth the yen coin swings back and forth, and doubly so that it's reflected in my eyes perfectly as well. And while not as animated, the disappearance of the towel implying that I lost strength in my body and dropped it is a very nice touch! Plus it gives a bit for those people like pure nudity, and those who like the partial nudity. Fun for everyone!

This was actually more or less a Christmas gift from Etlabsotwe to me, as he ended up posting this on Christmas day of 2015, and it was a very welcome one. I'm actually not too keen on the holiday myself, but I'd never be sad over someone thinking of me enough to do something like this for me. Especially that to this day, this picture still holds up as one of my more favorite renditions Etlabsotwe has done for me.

I do find it funny though that I'm not actually sure if this is pre or post showering. The hair kind of looks a bit wet and heavy so I'd be leaning towards the latter, but if you notice when I drop the towel, my piercing is there. I don't actually shower with that in, so it could go either way. I suppose I can leave it up to the viewer to decide whichever is hotter.

The Happy Helmet.

Greetings again all! We're back this week with another very unique post from Keeper of Pots! Those of you who have been following the blog should no doubt be aware of Keeper, but as a quick recap he was the one who helped design the graphics for the blog itself, as well as just generally being a fantastic artist in general. This picture in particular however, is more on the sketch side, as he did it fairly quickly and on a whim. That doesn't take away from how much personality shows up in the piece however.

To be quite honest with you though, I actually don't have much to say on HOW this picture came to be. You see, I remember at the time that I was upset about something. I couldn't tell you what because I'm usually upset about something new everyday haha... Though that being said, Keeper randomly felt inspired to create this piece after hearing about how frustrated I was about whatever it was at the time. Due to that, I actually managed to get an extensive quote from him about this piece that will hopefully answer some questions about it!

"As appreciators of fine culture will undoubtedly notice, this comic is pretty much a word-for-word recreation of a scene from The Ren & Stimpy Show, more specifically the episode "Stimpy's Invention".  I typically don't get to indulge too much in pure cartoony drawing when it comes to hypno drawings, so it was nice being able to show what I'm made of... Even if all of the expressions and poses are essentially replicated from the scene in question.

I think the idea was born from the fact that Erika was unhappy about something at the time, so I thought it'd be funny if she was forced to wear Stimpy's happy helmet. Had I done this comic today, I would've probably included an EdgeTech logo on it, in reference to Edgeofthemoon, another hypno artist and good friend of mine,

The last line about the Republicans was lifted from a completely unrelated episode ("Ren's Brain") and it lead to some people thinking I was actually making a political statement, which was pretty funny. Especially since I considered it a complete non-sequitur, but I s'pose I shouldn't expect everyone to catch my obtuse references.

Also, I made sure to include the animation error of having the dial being operated like a button. To be honest, I never noticed that until I studied the scene more closely when making the comic."
 
As you can see, there were a lot of references about Ren and Stimpy! Though I do know that now, at the time however, I was not familiar with said references. I did know of the show, but to be honest I've never been a fan of it. And actually, catching some scenes of it when I was young somewhat spooked me and really off put me from the show itself. That stigma has stuck with me even to this day, where I can say I'm not the biggest fan of that series.

All that being said though, the picture itself is solid! Granted, I can't in full honesty say that it's something I'm absolutely in love with. The style of this comic is a bit too reminiscent of the show itself, plus the jokes don't really hit for me, as I'm not a fan of the source material to begin with. But even still, I'm almost always happy being included in a hypnosis based picture. On top of that, Keeper made this for me when I was feeling sad, so I can't ever really dislike it! So funnily enough, I think this post might possibly the least Erika-like picture on this blog that I actually like.

P.s I feel stupid even adding this, but I did see some silly comments on this picture when it was initially released many years ago. Since some people tend to be very serious about politics, I'll add this disclaimer: Keeper mentioned in the quote, the whole thing is a reference to various episodes of Ren and Stimpy. The lines mentioned in here do not reflect my actual political views. And to be straight up with you guys, I don't have any political views. Heck, I don't even know what a Republican party is.

Fun For Everyone.

Greetings again! We're back this week with not only another Erika post, but the return of one of my favorite fictional characters AND an artist we haven't seen in quite awhile on this blog. That's right, for those of you who have read the earlier entries in the blog, this artist might look familiar. It's StormFedeR! I went over him before in the previous entry, but needless to say the main draw of commissioning him is that it's VERY difficult to get a slot. Actually at the time of writing this post, May 21st 2023, he opened commissions just yesterday, and I missed my chance. Oh well...

But even though I failed recently, I didn't fail many years ago when I got this picture as we can see. I managed to luckily snag a spot, and I already knew what I wanted. As evident by some of the previous posts, I was on quite a Blazblue high at the time. This was due to the fact that it was early 2015, and the newest version of the game Central Fiction, was coming out in about a year. That, coupled with the fact that I had recently awoken to my love for loli vampires and Rachel Alucard in particular. So we'll probably be seeing a lot more of her in this time period of commissions!

So with that being said, StormFedeR immediately got to work on my idea. It wasn't anything special, but rather I just wanted an idea that Rachel comes to invade my room and hypnotizes me into some hot yuri action. Actually, the basic premise of this idea came from Keeper of Pots who helped me brainstorm the setting, as all I had was just an Erika x Rachel picture. And fun fact about that, Keeper ended up making a Rachel bedroom invasion comic with me in it later down the line, but more on that whenever we get to it on the blog.

I'd like to say the commission progress went smoothly, but actually it's time I address the title of this piece as well as the alts... the completed product I got from StormFedeR actually was the third picture in this post. The one where Rachel has giant breasts! To be frank, I'm not only not really a big fan of huge honkers, but I also like to keep characters on model so I wasn't too satisfied with the end result. I asked if it were possible to reduce Rachel's bust size, but I wasn't sure if Storm would do it as he doesn't usually do post commission reworks. Luckily, he was alright with it! However, the second version was still a tad too big. So he shrunk them down to as far as he said he could, and we ended up with Rachel bust size alts to please everyone! Small, medium and large.

I opted to keep the small version as the definitive version, but if you look for this picture on Storm's gallery, he opted to go for the bigger boobed version to be the definitive piece. So it really is a "pick your own option" scenario. As a side note, the original final piece also had my hair colored wrong, but I chose to not have that alt uploaded here. Overall though despite the hiccups, I'm still very satisfied with how this commission turned out!

The Wrath of YandEr-ikaa.

Here we are, we are now in the post 100th picture world! Just because I hit my initial goal, doesn't mean I was going to stop getting hypnosis pictures of myself. That being said, I didn't have an immediate goal anymore. It's not as if I was thinking "Alright! Time to get two hundred pictures now!" Rather, I was just going to keep going until... I didn't want to anymore I suppose? And hey, I'm still here getting pictures of myself even now.

Goals aside though, I did slow down somewhat on actively commissioning stuff myself though. That holds true even to today. And following that train of thought, we have a gift from Zorro once again! This time, it's featuring Yanderika! To be honest, I don't actually have any lore as to what Yanderika is... Is she an alternate character? Or just me hypnotized into being a Yandere? The world will never know. In this specific example though, Zorro actually wrote out a mini story featuring how this iteration of Yanderika became a thing. It even gives us the name of the protagonist in this picture, Sean. You can read it in the description of the picture on Deviant Art here.
 
The reason why I worded the previous paragraph the way that I did, is because while this seems like a one off gag, Yanderika does actually appear on multiple occasions in the future. As for how she came to be though? Well, I do like mixing my name with words if I can get it to fit, and one day "Yanderika" just came up when I was talking about Yanderes. Yandere are an archetype of anime character that I personally REALLY love as well, and I do admit that sometimes I can be a little possessive... so hey, I'd say it fits.
 
Zorro apparently liked the pun enough to make a picture out of it, and this picture spawned at least two other instances of her/me, so it's funny how that works out. As to whether or not Zorro made this picture because he legitimately thought the pun was funny enough to make a picture, or the fact that I did tend to display some possessive personality traits way back when... well, I suppose we'll never know the answer to that either!
 
I should probably have put this at the top, but just in case you don't know what a Yandere is, it's an archetype of character that is crazy obsessive with someone. So obsessed that they show signs of stalking, paranoia, or even intent to hurt others around them just so they can keep their beloved to themselves. The term itself is Japanese and see in some anime/manga characters, but the crazy stalker type is not limited to just Japanese media. Hope this helps~

The Big One Hundred!

This is it, we've reached the milestone... the one that more or less got me mass commissioning hypnosis pictures in the first place. The goal of reaching 100 tagged pictures of myself on the Hub! And this picture was done by Keeper of Pots to celebrate the momentous occasion. It was definitely a major goal of min achieved at the time, and it meant so much to me to have reached it. So buckle up folks, this blog entry is gonna be a doozy to reflect that!

Probably around the Hypno Raptor arc from Zorro, I realized I was approaching the big 100 picture goal quickly. It was around then that I mentioned the idea to Keeper of Pots that I'd like to have a celebratory picture to mark the milestone. With a fair bit of time to work with, Keeper of Pots agreed to it. I had already an idea in mind as well, which is rare for me. Though to be specific, I suppose I had a general outline more so than a specific idea. I wanted a big collage of hypnotized interpretations of myself in one picture. After brainstorming a bit with Keeper, he decided to take that idea and turn it into a big call back for previous Erika drawings rather than mash up of random iterations of myself.

At this point, I was more or less hands off for the rest of the project. We had a fair bit of time to work on this, so Keeper worked on this during his spare time. I couldn't really speak for the decision making process that went into him picking the pieces he chose to highlight, but I did get a few quotes from him about working on this piece in general. He had this to say:

"Picking what drawings to re-create from the vast pool of Erika art was a mix between choosing what was memorable, or included things I personally like - like Kaa and tentacles - to making sure that at least a handful of artists would be represented. Any empty spot I had left on the canvas was filled with little props that were self-evident without having to show a full picture, like the Zorro laptop or Rachel with the green evening backdrop."
 
 And what kind of celebratory post would this be if we didn't specifically highlight each and every piece referenced in this picture? It's gonna be a long one, but starting from the upper left corner and going clockwise we have:

1. Erika and the Hypno Raptor by Zorro. Specifically the second encounter, based on the torn outfit.
2. A mysterious tentacle trench coated man from a personal hypnosis story I wrote.
3. Erika in the Hypno Team outfit by Psi. Technically the Mr. Mind specific interaction never happened, but more on that later.
4. Erika being hypnotized by a hypnotic visor by Medri. With a small cameo from an annoyed tentacle monster, and a floating hypnotic orb from these two posts respectively.
5. Erika being penetrated by the purple tentacles by Vahn. There are a lot of purple tentacles in the blog, but the heart eyes and penis shaped bulbs are referring to this post in particular.
11. Erika and the purple tentacles... again! By Sugar-Slime. This is the third species of purple tentacles in this post alone, but this one is distinct because of the eye color pattern.
15. And finally... a tiny, off colored Erika in the middle drawn by me.
 
 Hoo boy, that was a lot to list off there! Keeper of Pots definitely didn't skimp out on the references to the past one hundred pictures, picking out some of his favorites. Not to mention the seamless background transitioning between all the individual pieces, blending together what would normally be many individual pieces into one giant cohesive masterpiece. I cannot thank Keeper of Pots enough for doing this for me out of the complete kindness of his heart. Because yes, this was not a commission. Once again, I just asked if he'd be willing to do it, and he did. No questions asked. What an amazing fellow!

In the list above though, I did mention a little blurb about the Mr. Mind reference in there. While that is something has never been a thing, and will probably never be a thing... we do have some additional comments from Keeper of Pots about that as well:

"I like including references to games, cartoons and comics I like into my work, but this one is a bit of an anomaly... It includes a reference from a comic I haven't personally read - but I liked the design and idea behind Mister Mind enough to include him in a drawing. I might've first come across him on Hypno Hub since one of his canonical powers include mind control."
 
So yes, you aren't crazy, it's just something that's never been a thing. But as I've said before, I also like including characters who have the canonical method of hypnotizing people, so I'm not against his inclusion. That being said... I still don't actually know who he is.

This post has been pretty long already, and between hunting down each individual blog post to source a direct reference to, writing this all down on the spot, and running into many formatting errors because this site is funny, I've been writing this for about an hour and a half or something. So it's about time we come to a close here folks! But while this was the 100th picture and the realization of a goal, it's not the end of the journey. The adventure of having myself hypnotized in various art forms and scenarios is something that continues to this day, so look forward to further blog posts!

And with that, we'll close this post with one final quote Keeper of Pots had about this piece. Only fitting we end it off here, since this is picture was all him.

"It's always a little difficult to look back on past works, and while there are things I like about this one, like the colors and layout and MOST of the drawings - it has a bit of a janky quality in places. The aforementioned MIster Mind portion has a rather strange looking Erika for instance."

Day of the Tentacle.

Hello again! We're back this week with a new yet somewhat familiar piece this week. What do I mean by that? Well, stop me if you heard this one before... I find myself hypnotized by disembodied purple tentacles with hypno eyes! All jokes aside though, while purple tentacle eyes seem to be a common thread, this time we have a friend along for the ride. The second girl featured in this picture is none other than Noel Vermillion from the Blazblue franchise. And on top of that, the picture is done by everyone's favorite artist: Keeper of Pots.
 
All that being said, this was actually a joint commission between myself and Roxa. This is the first of a few joint commissions that we'll see on this blog. By that I mean both Roxa and I split the cost of this commission and both pitched the idea together after some brainstorming. At the time, Roxa was into Blazblue as hinted before by the two previous Erika x Rachel pictures we've seen on this blog. And of course, I'm ALWAYS into Blazblue. So when Roxa opted to include Noel Vermillion, I was definitely down for it. We also chose to use her outfit she wears in Blazblue Chrono Phantasma and onwards because we liked her having her hair down.
 
After we had that part down, we had to think of an idea for Noel and myself to be in. I was the one who chose the tentacles (no surprise) because around this time, I had come across a different hypnosis tentacle picture where a character was in the process of being hypnotized. The Kaa eye spiral forming in their eyes specifically, but not fully entranced. That was a rare moment to see in a still picture, and I was inspired to include that idea in my next commission. It was Roxa's idea to have Noel already be fully hypnotized though. He wanted her to be fully entranced, so we decided on having me being the one in the process of being hypnotized, while Noel would be molesting me.

Those of you who are familiar with Keeper of Pot's art by now though might notice this picture looks slightly different than his usual works. And luckily I managed to snag a comment from him about this piece:

"This image marks a bit of a shift in the way I approached illustration. I typically worked with traditional means when producing the lineart, but after getting a tablet it was more efficient to do everything digitally. This image WAS inked traditionally, but I can tell by the coloring that I was having fun exploring the capabilities of using a tablet, hence why the coloring is softer and more gradient-y. I would typically employ something a lot more cel-shaded than this."
 
Funnily enough, all the way back when I commissioned this I remember being slightly annoyed that Keeper of Pots opted to try out this new coloring method on MY commission. Usually when I commission someone it'd be because I like their current way of doing things, so it felt weird to me that the artist would change up how they usually do things when I happen to be paying for it. But Roxa was completely fine with it, and this was a joint commission so I never bothered to go further than that. Though even now it's something that I still look back and think "I'm totally right about this." You'll never convince me otherwise Keeper!

This post has gone on for a lot longer than usual, but there is one more tidbit I'd like to add. Keeper of Pots is usually a rather patient artist, but both Roxa and I were rather indecisive when it came to this picture. It was one of the few times I remember him getting somewhat frustrated with all the changes we were applying to the picture in its infancy. One of the many changes was debating whether Noel should have panties or not, and in the end we went with "no panties and visible penetration". I bring that point up specifically because years later, I'd find out that Noel may or may not just go commando normally. Accuracy is important after all!
 
(By the way, Keeper of Pots came up with the title for this blog entry. Absolutely a reference to one of his favorite games.)

Logistical Issues That Arise During Mutual Hypnosis.

Greetings everyone! This week, we have a comic done by a good friend of mine, EdgeOfTheMoon! Or just Edge for short. Definitely not a new face to the blog, but this will be the first comic by Edge. And actually, this comic itself is the first in a series that Edge used to work on a long time ago called "Hypno Hub Theater". As the name implies, it was a comic series that was done in a 4koma style featuring antics of various Hypno Hub characters and/or OCs. I do speak in past tense though, since at the time of writing this blog entry there hasn't been a new post for Hypno Hub theater in over four years or so? I guess I could've asked Edge if the series might ever make a comeback, but I suppose we will all have to wait and see.

But on the topic of this issue in particular, I was of course super happy to be included in the debut of the series right along side the Hub mascot Hypno-tan. And in a rare event, this picture actually might more or less debut dom Erika. Something that you very rarely see in any hypnosis based picture featuring myself! Though fun fact, I studied psychology and hypnosis in school. On top of that, I've tried and succeeded in hypnotizing a few friends and strangers in real life. So dom Erika isn't something that's completely unheard of! ... Though I don't know if Edge knew that information when making this comic. He probably did, but I can't say for sure since it's been so long!

But yes, the comic itself features a fun little skit of two doms hypnotizing each other into a cute little head bonk as we were dozing off! Honestly not too much to say here, but I can say it was a fun idea that I haven't really seen replicated elsewhere. As this was the first comic in the series and Edge was a budding artist at the time, in future issues of this series we will definitely be seeing more of the Edge-like humor he's known for as well as more refined art. But as a starting place, this is definitely a fun start!
 
Unfortunately, not all issues feature me so not all of them will be posted on this blog. But there ARE more that do indeed have me, and they will be here when it's time to post them! If you're curious about seeing all the other issues, I'll leave a link here if you'd like to see them all for yourself. Granted, all the Erika related posts will be on the blog sooner or later!

ER-iKaa Animated.

Hello all! We're back again this week with something rather unique, if I do say so myself! This is a fully animated comic done but the forever awesome Zorro. When I say this is something unique, I do think that animated comics are somewhat of a rarity in the grand scheme of things, but also if my memory serves me right, this is the first and only time (as of April 9th 2023, the time of this post) that Zorro has ever done an animation before. Let's elaborate!

As the release of the 100th hypnotized Erika picture drew closer and closer, Zorro asked me if there was something in particular I wanted for the milestone celebration. To be honest though, I had already planned out what I wanted to be the 100th picture at the time. More details on that when we get to uploading it though! Anyways, I didn't really have any creative juices left to come up with yet another celebratory post. I just kind of casually mentioned that I'd like an animation, since who doesn't like an animation right?

Maybe that was a bit mean of me, since animating is a lot of work. Never the less, Zorro decided to do one for me, and even did more than I expected with it being an animated comic! This apparently took a full weeks work for him to do, which may not sound like a lot based on some other artists you know... but if you recall, Zorro usually released pictures regularly. So taking one week on a piece at the time was definitely unprecedented! In the end, when the picture had been finished and uploaded though, it was the 97th completed Erika picture at the time. Just slightly off the mark! Funnily enough though, this is the 99th blog entry though, so also once again slightly off the mark.

Since the only input I gave for this picture is "Maybe I'd like an animation" the contents of this image were once again done completely by Zorro. Those of you who know me will know that I'm actually not the biggest fan of the whole "hypnotized hypnotist" tag. So it was definitely surprising seeing a whole comic about it! Not that I dislike this image though, it's just not something I'd go out of my way to ask for on my own. Regardless about that though, Zorro did a very interesting job showing off different angles and even included two animated inductions here with the pendulum and the Kaa eyes!

In case you were wondering though, it's not your internet or browser that's acting up and making this image play slowly. As I mentioned before, Zorro has never made an animation before or since. And because of that, there must've been something weird that happened in the creation process to make it run at such a low FPS. I don't know how to fix it, and I wouldn't feel comfortable editing someone else's work anyways. In the end, I still think this a cool picture all things considered, and I can never thank Zorro enough for going so far out of his comfort zone to make this in celebration for reaching my goal!

Watch out for Spiral.tv!

Hello again! We're back this week with our proper blog post for the week, this time featuring a whole new artist but not necessarily a new idea hehe. This lovely picture was a commission of mine done by Midori-chan, a classic hypnosis artist from a few years back. As far as commissions go, this was a fairly straightforward transaction, where I contacted the artist simply because I like their work. I handed them an idea (this time I came up with what I wanted beforehand!) and the work was delivered in a timely manner with no issues.

Because of that, there's no drama or funny/interesting backstory behind this picture... So instead, let's talk about the picture itself! As stated above, this is one of the rare times that I personally already had an idea of what I wanted to commission beforehand. The idea itself isn't anything original, rather you could say it's really played out actually. Classic spiral on a computer hypnotizing unsuspecting victims! ... Wait, wasn't there a post almost just like this like the other week...? Regardless, this time it was my idea, and it was unrelated to the last one!
 
The idea for this, and previous commissions, plus commissions to come in the future all more less stem from the same source. I mentioned it in a blog post from a long time ago, but there was a scene in a hentai called "La Blue Girl" where a girl is hypnotized by a monitor suddenly turning into a spiral. Afterwards, tentacles shoot out from the monitor and well... you know the rest! Actually, that scene was a big inspiration for me in terms of hypnosis related content, and so I find myself gravitating towards that idea, and I even wrote a story that was a direct homage to it! Whenever there's a classic spiral on screen hypnotizing someone, I recall that scene rather than the generic hypnosis set up, and that's why we see it a few times in my commissions.
 
As for the picture itself, it's an interesting mixed bag for me personally. I commissioned Midori-chan because I genuinely really like their art style. That being said, I do find it to be rather inconsistent at times. And that inconsistency is something that can be seen in this picture for me. The way I'm depicted in this picture is great. Fantastic expression, unique hypno eyes, moderate sized breasts, spot on hair style, and no anatomy issues to speak of! Heck, we even got the navel piecing, which a lot of first time Erika artists miss. On the other hand, the background is literally a very pixelated copy and paste spiral, and the furniture and the laptop itself look like they were drawn as an afterthought. The spiral on the screen itself also looks rather... lazy. And to top that off, I'm not even looking at the monitor!

So this picture has a lot of ups and a lot of downs from me. Granted, I do not regret my commission at all, and I am satisfied with the product I received for the price I paid. All in all, I commissioned this because I liked the artist, and we were VERY close to the one hundred picture goal at this point, so I was pumping those commissions out! And as a slight side note, I never once gave it any thought at the time, nor many years after until just today when I was writing this blog entry... I have no idea why my shirt is yellow in this picture. I can't believe I never really gave it any kind of thought until now, but hey, I guess it's a unique outfit for me!

April Fools Special Edtion Post!

Hey all! We'll keep this post on the shorter side, since we will still have a proper post tomorrow. Done by Keeper of Pots, this is a picture that has existed for quite awhile. In fact it existed a bit before the first Keeper of Pots Erika comic, I just wasn't sure if it should be uploaded here. By the time I decided on it, we had long since past the upload date and I also wasn't sure about dedicating a full blog post to this... but hey, with April Fools here, this gives me a perfect opportunity!

To summarize, Keeper of Pots once told me that he does mock up drawings like these when coloring something for the first time to give him an idea of what the colors will look like altogether. So he drew up this quick rudimentary drawing of myself and Saalim as practice for the actual comic that we saw on here before. I don't know if he still does these as this is the one and only time he's sent one to me, but I've held onto it all this time at least!
