Yup, I agree Storyboards can often pack an erotic wallop that single-scene
drawings can't (I think you're the guy who first mentioned that term
STORYBOARD. I used to think of it as 'Comic Book Style').
Of course, all my single-scene pieces are meant to seem to be plucked
from a storyboard, since I always know what happened before and after.
But to put all the storyboards on paper would take a zillion years.
But I sure thank you for the compliment at wishing you could see all
prequels and sequels to my scenes.
I can tell you, at least, that the 'Fierce Mechanic' is intending to
have his fun on the bound biker by going at him without removing biker's
pants. This was mostly inspired by Eddie/Hooder's obsession with masturbating
guys through tight denim, leather, rubber. (Of course I sent him a copy
of this pic).
The "fierce"
mechanic (meaning he's a "great" mechanic, though now fierce
is taking on a different meaning) was not somebody to cock-tease. A
biker coming to pick up his bike wearing tight black leather pants and
shirtless, especially at closing time, would definitely be a cock-tease.
You ask how the mechanic 'jumped' him. All he had to do was require
the biker's assistance, to have biker hold the bike in a certain position
(where the biker would be clutching the bike with both hands, his arms
close to his body, pulling the bike against his chest so his elbows
extend beyond his back. Walking behind the biker to pick up another
tool, mechanic grabs rope and slips it under both the biker's upper
arms, pulls it tight, and from then on it’s an easy victory -

Me again re 'Fierce' Mechanic
Hi Joe, Thanks for description of what happened in the run-up to the
predicament pictured. That's what I like about your drawings; each scenario
is there in your mind, part of a complete drama. Even in a single picture
or two, you embody the prequel and hint at the sequel, leaving space
to fill in personal preference detail. For me, knowing more about the
background intensifies the potency of my imaginings. We talked about
that before my "Visualisation" workshop session last year.
The technical overpowering of the biker, as described by you, helps
a lot. Your talent for precise visualisation also includes you drawing
every restraint detail so it looks totally practical and achievable.
That's why your pictures have always pushed the right buttons for me.
However simple the roping or strapping, I need bound men look as if
they're going to stay bound.
The fact that a single image like a mechanic ready to 'work on' a bound
biker can develop in so many alternative directions - certainly fired
my imagination. It's an ideal starting point for my own highly personalised
mental storyboard. Looking at the faces of your two characters, I immediately
began to speculate on a background situation; who the two characters
are and how their personalities would make them behave. Does that sound
a bit geekish -or is it because I'm a movie maker if only inside my
head?
This whole "Theatre of the Mind's Eye" topic still interests
me.
