ER-iKaa Cosplay: Foxy Girl

Hello again! Sorry for the inconsistent blog releases, I've actually been rather sick this past month. But more importantly, we do have a new entry this week from a rather frequent face, Zorro! Once again, we have a picture done solely by Zorro with no input from me whatsoever, and I can't help but always crack a smile whenever someone is willing to include me in personal projects like this! But of course, since I have no idea as to where the context behind this picture came from, I can only really talk about it from my point of view.

 

As I stated earlier, I just more or less woke up one day to this picture existing. It was quite a wonderful surprise to see that's for sure! And while the premise itself is rather basic, it's actually one that I really like a lot. Sometimes simple can be best after all. Just minding your own business when suddenly you're sent a suspicious spiral, and you find everything goes black? Heck yeah! Actually, there's a very brief little story about this picture that Zorro wrote in the description for this picture on Deviant Art, for those curious.

 

For the picture itself, we actually have a rather rarer case of bottomless, while still having a top on. Granted, the top is being stripped off, but we've already discarded the bottoms at some point. Usually, it goes top off first, then bottom. Seems like a strange thing to take note of, but I did realize just how different it was. And hey, I actually kinda like it like this to be honest! If I had a choice between topless or bottomless, I think I might pick the latter. We also have the Zorro-like fox cosplay tail and ears as well. I'm assuming whomever hypnotized me in this picture (probably Zorro) had me get them! Animal girls are usually hit or miss for me, but I can appreciate there being some sort of back story for the cosplay though!

 

And actually this picture kind of reminds me of the good old days, when I spent a lot of my time browsing hypno related stuff on my laptop in my bed. I met all my hypnosis related friends through those nights of just snuggling up in my bed with my laptop on, and this picture invokes those feelings! Unfortunately, the laptop I used way back then is no longer with us, and I have to sit at my desk with a less comfortable desktop...

Is This Yours?

Welcome back again everyone, this week we have the debut of a new artist to the blog! This picture was done by Nell-Chrome, and while it was something that I personally commissioned, the idea wasn't mine. For those veteran readers of the blog, we have once again found another commission which suffered from the classic syndrome of "I want to commission you, but I don't know what I want from you." And so, this picture was more or less planned out exclusively by the artist.

Speaking of the picture though, we have myself hypnotized dressed up as Hypno Hub's mascot Hypno-tan. Correct me if I'm wrong here, but I think this might be the first time Hypno-tan would've even been mentioned or brought up on this blog? Regardless, this picture is actually sort of a sequel/alternate version of a previous picture done by Nell. It had Hypno-tan in more or less the same pose saying the same line, Though in that picture it was implied that she was the dom. You can find the original here. In this picture however, we have myself as the sub with Hypno-tan smiling mischievously in the background.

I am not entirely sure if this is actually a remake or an alternate version though, as from my perspective this picture just seems like a chance for Nell to redo an older piece. However, in the description for the original picture, Nell stated that this is a sequel. Does that mean that in the original picture, it was actually my own first person point of view? Some food for thought I suppose... but yes, I didn't really have much creative input on this piece, but I do love how it turned out.

I found Nell from some pieces he had posted on the Hub, and got to commissioning him ASAP. There's just something about how cutely he can draw stuff while maintaining that anime-esque style that really piqued my interest! We had no issues communicating and the product was delivered without an complications, and afterwards Nell and I stayed in contact as acquaintances for awhile too. Unfortunately it'd be awhile until I got another commission from him, but we'll cross that bridge when we get to it!

All in all, a solid commission if I do say so myself. And a great introduction to Hypno-tan on my blog if I'm remembering things correctly at least. I've always been a fan of that outfit, so hey why not have myself in it right? That's definitely part the reason I signed off on Nell's idea in the first place! By the way, this version uploaded here is the original picture. However, there is a slightly saturated version where the blonde in my hair looks more blonde than it does pale. That version can be found on Nell's Deviant Art page which will be linked at the bottom here. I just didn't see a need to upload two pictures that were identical besides the color.

Purple Tentacles Again... Again!!

As you can see I am once again showing off my genius when it comes to making titles! ... But yes, welcome to this week's post! We have a kind of pseudo-sequel to a post from a few weeks back. Though depending on how you interpret it, it could be a prequel based on the state of dress I'm in compared to the previous on. You could also view this as an alternate universe sort of take to. Allow me to explain!

I mentioned it earlier, but this picture is very similar to the previous post titled "Purple Tentacles Again!" I released awhile back. After all, the same artist worked on both pieces and the both pictures feature myself hypnotized by the aforementioned tentacles. There is one very unique and distinct difference between the two however, and I'm not talking about the contents of the picture either. While the previous picture was commissioned by me, this picture was commissioned by none other than Keeper of Pots himself.

Yes, while he is a fantastic artist in his own right, Keeper opted to commission this picture. If I recall our conversation, he mentioned that he was a big fan of the artist who worked on the previous piece, Sugar-Slime. Not just from my own commission, but from the other random pictures from the artist that showed up on the Hub made Keeper of Pots into a fan. That being said, there was something about the previous picture that didn't quite agree with him. In fact to this day, I still don't actually know what it was.

Whatever the case, Keeper of Pots felt like my previous commission wasn't quite tapping into the artist's potential per se. And so he took it upon himself to commission one for himself. Something like that was, and still is a huge surprise to me. Sometimes it slips my mind, but just because you CAN draw, doesn't mean that you always want to. Or perhaps you could really value the art style of a separate artist. Either way, and artist commissioning another artist for art is something that always slips my mind. And with all that being said, we are greeted with this picture!

Now you know what I mean when this is a potential sequel, prequel, or even alternate universe take on the previous picture. Honestly, I never asked Keeper how he wanted to interpret this piece, but all I know is that I was not only super shocked, but also incredibly grateful he chose me to be in his first, and to this date, only commission he's ever done. I guess he really liked that artist! So it makes me sad to report that not too long after this the artist went silent, and then eventually closed their accounts... But hey, at least we got these two pictures to look back on!
