The Big Book of Bad Ideas: Introduction
17 years ago
(Index at end of post.)
Well, maybe not a big book. And the ideas are not necessarily bad for a picture, but bad for at least one character in the picture. Mostly the bad ideas involve a male enduring or about to endure some possible testicular agony or impending castration. I prefer the "moment just before" or a bit earlier, rather than the process itself being shown. Why? Some things just work better by only almost being shown. Let the viewer's imagination show them the next moment and everyone can picture their own version.
I prefer to imagine these images with bovines and equines, at least as the victims or targets. Partly as they are larger animals and there are names for the castrated versions, which can lead to some wordplay. And I just like them. That doesn't mean the victim has to be a bull or stallion, just that that is how I imagine it. And where there is prey, of one kind or another, there tend to be predators. A tigress seems appropriate for that role, but that's only a suggestion.
I'll be posting these Bad Ideas from time to time. Maybe even regularly, but I don't want to promise what I am not sure I can deliver. That way I have a record of them, and you can look them over. If you want to draw any of them, go right ahead. If you want to include my character (UnderPressure) in the image, that's fine. You can find the image from which my icon comes here Note that this character has no nose-ring, ear-tag, or any other piercings. If you want me to commission you... well, I'd love to, but I am limited by finances too, so that doesn't happen very often. Sorry.
Whatever characters you might use, if you decide to draw any of these, all I really ask is that you post a comment pointing to the drawing so I (and others) can admire your work. Thank you.
Any other questions? Comment or send a note.
