Keeper of Pots Sketch Commissions! Part 3/3

Maybe you might've thought I'd forgotten about it, but no! For some reason we actually had a few pictures pop up in between parts two and three of the Keeper of Pots sketch commissions! Even though one and two were back to back. I'm not entirely sure I remember why the third and final part of this set had bit of a break, but regardless here we have the grand finale! Another fantastic piece done by none other than Keeper of Pots of course!

As per usual, I actually managed to snag a quote about this picture from the artist in question! So let's take a look and see what Keeper of Pots had to say. "This drawing is my favorite out of the "sketch trilogy". It's got some pretty nice perspective going and I like the casual groping and masturbation aspect. It's a bit janky in terms of trying to look like anime while I clearly were not that great at drawing it, but it has a pretty cute quality that I enjoy nonetheless. Maybe one day, a re-draw is in order..." (Don't worry Keeper, if you happen to be reading this, I fixed all your spelling errors hehe.)

Just like the other pieces in the trilogy, the idea itself was done purely by Keeper of Pots. And actually, I distinctly remember this one in particular. That's because for the first two ideas, I had an input in them at least somewhat. I'd give my approval or at least talk about the basic idea of the sketches with Keeper. However for this one, it was 100% his own idea and I had zero input in this one. The reason being, he really wanted to push the idea of a self hypnosis piece with myself in it. And in actuality, self hypnosis isn't really my thing.

Of course the picture is still amazing and I love it! Just because something isn't my cup of tea, doesn't mean I can't appreciate it. But funnily enough, my opinion differs from the original artist here. As he said this is his favorite of the three, while for me I think the second one is actually my favorite. But as the artist also mentioned, the perspective is fantastic, and you can't go wrong by having a hypnotized girl (especially if it's me) masturbating her thoughts away! That's always a classic. And as some bonus points, we do have an Edward Elric from Fullmetal Alchemist sitting on the couch. Keeper of Pots decided to randomly include that tidbit because he knew I liked the show, even though he hadn't seen it at the time. Little did he know that at some undisclosed point in the future after making this picture, I'd force him to watch Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood with me...

But with that, we've reached the conclusion of the Keeper of Pots sketch commission trilogy! We had a bit of a break, but it was a fun ride and we ended up with three fantastic pictures. Of course there will be more pictures to come! And actually, we'll be reaching another sort of special batch pictures very soon! So stay tuned~

"Jumping on the Erika Bandwagon~!"

Greetings once again! We're back with another post for the week. This time we have a sketch by Dark Hat Boy, or DHB for short. A prominent hypnosis artist who has been at it for quite a while! And in fact, they are still drawing stuff to this day so if you're in the mood for some high quality hypnosis art, definitely check them out! They have a very distinct art style I'd say. Though to be honest, I've never actually spoken with DHB before despite this picture being a thing.

Since I've never spoken to DHB, I don't know what thought processes were made for this picture to be created, but based on a comment they left when posting this I can at least infer the reason! Supposedly after seeing a lot of Erika art on the Hub, DHB decided to contribute a piece of their own! Which of course, I greatly appreciated. The comment in question was: "Jumping on the erika bandwagon~! While also bring back the hypnohub panties. Doodle I did after seeing so much erika everywhere."

It's also thanks to that quote, that I got the title for this post! And as per usual, if I don't have any insight into how the picture came to be, the best I can do is talk about my opinion on the picture for this blog post! Here we have me kneeling forward in absolute submission, praising the Hub while being very clearly aroused. It's even leaking through the Hypno Hub panties! ... Actually I don't even know what those panties are. I'm afraid that reference is lost on me. Still though, it's a very simple yet effective idea! Unfortunately, due to my lack of interest in Hypno Hub as of late, I can't say the text holds up well. However the image itself definitely does!

I'd also like to mention that despite me never speaking to DHB I'd like to give him a special shout out for getting the blonde to black ratio right in my hair. That's actually a minor detail I usually end up having to correct a lot when it comes to commissions for some reason. Thanks again DHB for the wonderful picture! We'll see the again far later on the blog, next time as a proper commission.

What IS an Adult Pet Anyways...?

This week it seems like we've broken the Keeper of Pots streak, but fret not! For this post we have a very well known artist in the hypno art community. It's none other than Zko, the creator Skypenotized, and owner of the hypnosis bait OC Crystal. I actually ended up meeting Zko through Hypno Hub where he commented on one of the previous pictures featuring myself. He said something along the lines of "I envy whoever can spend so much money on commissioning pictures of their waifu." As he did not know I was a real person at the time. After correcting him and letting him know I was real, we started talking and became friends! And to this day, Zko is still a friend that I talk to regularly.

After talking to him and realizing he was an artist, I decided to ask him for a commission. Yes that's right, at the time when Zko had messaged me, I wasn't actually aware of Skypenotized or that he was an artist. Though to be fair, the series had only just recently started to pick up traction at this point. We discussed what I wanted for the commission, and this time I was in the mood for a hypnotic snake picture! A classic that even to this day I still pine for. (And at the time of writing this post, I'm currently in a hypnotic snake mood. I really should get a picture of one done with me.)

Though as per my usual lack of details, I didn't have a specific scenario in mind. So I kind of let Zko take the reigns on this one, as per usual. However, despite the fact that I didn't have too much creative input with this idea, Zko DID actually do a private stream for me as he worked on this commission. As far as my memory goes, this never happened again, but watching an artist work live while giving my input as it went along does help create a more solid mental picture. Plus it's always fun seeing people who are amazing at their craft, and clearly Zko is a man who knows his craft.

In the end, we have a scenario of a strange hypnotic snake breaking out from it's containment and hypnotizing me! but luckily there seems to be a button you can press in case of an emergency! Now if only I could just reach it... It's still pretty handy of the Adult Pet Shop to have such a button though. I suppose whenever the owner of the shop comes back, he'll be in for a treat. Seems like on top of being bound hypnotically, I'm also in a precarious situation in terms of clothing...

Overall, the commission process with Zko was smooth sailing. Again, watching the stream was a treat, and there were no bumps along the road for this piece. It was actually finished in about two days as well, so definitely nothing to complain about. Zko still makes hypnosis based drawings to this day, and it's easy to say how much he has improved since this drawing (Since this was done in June 2015 or so) but even still, I'd say this picture is still great! Unfortunately, I forgot to ask Zko for a comment about this picture, but next time I'll get some thoughts from him! After all, this definitely isn't the last Zko picture we'll be seeing on here!

Three Artists, One Picture.


I know what you're thinking, "Wait! Where's part three of the Keeper of Pots sketch commissions!?" Or something like that? Well, as I mentioned previously, these pictures on the blog will be uploaded in chronological order. Kind of. And funnily enough, there was actually a gap between the second and third pictures in the Keeper of Pots sketch commissions. But don't you fret! Because we still have some Keeper of Pots art this week. However, this time he is joined by not one, but two other artists. Allow me to elaborate.

To be completely honest, the picture featured in this blog is actually a remake. The third, and bottom most picture uploaded here is the original. It's a picture of me in a jungle girl outfit, being coiled and hypnotized by Kaa, perhaps with some futile resistance. The artist no longer draws, and has wished to remain anonymous. And if I recall, the original artist was not too happy about this picture, as well as some others they made for me. So out of respect, I was not going to upload them to this blog, despite them predating a lot of other images here.

But going back to what I said earlier, the ACTUAL picture featured here is a remake of said picture. Keeper of Pots was rather taken with this artist's work, and one day decided to just draw a remake of one of their pieces on a whim. Though much like the original artist, I believe he was not too satisfied with this picture. Unlike the original artist however, it wasn't due to being not happy with his work. Rather, Keeper of Pots felt like it was a pale imitation of the first. Also, while borrowing ideas and working them into something else is fine, Keeper of Pots wasn't too big a fan of releasing a picture that was straight up a remake of a previous picture.

Back when he shared this picture with me, he was already hesitant to do so. And even more hesitant to upload to the Hub. It took a lot of convincing to finally get him to cave in, and upload this picture! I was a bit forceful admittedly, but that's because not only is this remake fantastic on it's own right, but also as I was working towards the 100 picture goal, it feels like it'd be a waste to just let an Erika picture hang out in limbo like that. So in between the Keeper of Pots sketch work commissions, we ended up getting another piece by him! And since the focus of this post is the remake, it'll be the one taking the spotlight, despite me usually viewing the colored version as the definitive version.

And on the topic of the colored version... I don't actually know how it came to be. Now, this story with the original artist, and Keeper's remake took place a long time ago. We're talking around June of 2015, with the original drawing being done maybe a year or so prior to that. Then suddenly, about three months ago as of this post, on January 2022, an artist known as "hotpot" on the Hub submitted a colored version of Keeper of Pot's drawing. As far as I know, Keeper never contacted the artist, and neither have I. Going by their other works, it seems like they like to color pictures on the Hub. I've never spoken to hotpot even after this picture, but I can only assume they chose this picture because they liked it! And if that's the case, I can definitely approve of their tastes! If you ever see this post hotpot, thanks for coloring this old picture~

Ps. I got into a random discussion with Keeper of Pots about this picture. He said that most people would prefer the original over his version, but I disagree strongly. If you have a preference between the two, please let me know! I'm curious to know which one of us is right.
