Here be dragons

One of my oldest mind control fantasies involves a woman being MC'ed by a dragon. At first I imagined she'd bent sent to the dragon by her village: a sacrifice to keep it from attacking them (à la that old movie Dragonslayer), but instead it enslaves her and sends her back to take over the village. Later I thought she could be an adventuress who makes a deal with the villagers to kill the dragon, but the same thing happens in the end.

Either way, I'm nowhere close to being able to write that story yet, but it continues to percolate in my mind. I've always been fascinated by the thought of control by something terrifying and alien, like a dragon (or maybe a giant spider). The MC would have to very, very deep to make the victim love it; and that turns me on no end - even before I start thinking about the mechanics of sex with a dragon. ;)

With that in mind, here are a few pictures to stoke your own fantasies. The one above, as well as the first and third below, are by Julie Bell. The middle sketch is by Arantza.

Now three pics by Boris Vallejo. I've shown you the first one before, but it's so hilarious that I can't resist sharing it again. Ol' Boris was having great fun with the phallic symbolism on this one. He must have been laughing the whole time he was painting it.

All three of these artists - and many more - can be found on D4rkw00d.net.

Oh, and if MC-by-dragon turns you on as much as it does me, let me remind you of my previous post on the subject.

These are a few of my favorite things: eggs and pods

What is it about women being stored in and/or hatching from eggs and pods? They're pretty much a staple of mind control erotica, and the doubly-talented William Lee provides one excellent example at left here. But plenty of (as far as I know) non-EMC-fetishists take up the subject themselves. I don't see what they get out of it, unless it's just the alienness. *shrug* Whatever it is, I don't mind a bit. Let me show you a few of my favorites.

First, a bit of artwork. Here's a stuntkid piece flanked by two Boris Vallejo paintings.

And now, just to prove it can be done (well, sort of), here are two photos of Kumi Monster taken by Chris Young (left) and Fetish Live (right), an Angela Ryan shot by Stephen McClure, and below them a couple of pics from the Hart-Worx website.

Yes, I featured the Hart-Worx images once before, but you don't really mind seeing them again, do you? ;-P

These are a few of my favorite things: JessiKa Violet

I have to admit, I've always had a thing for dreadlocks. Unfortunately, I'm a little old (not to mention a little white) to wear them properly. A Native American, on the other hand, can apparently get away with dreads just fine...especially when she dyes them fuchsia.

Meet JessiKa Violet. Yes, that really is how she spells it. She has a fantastic look; and like most of the folks I enjoy, she has galleries with more pictures on both Model Mayhem and Deviant Art.

The pic above is by W. Forrest Photography, and so is the first pic in the row below. After that are photos by Cool Hand Luke (where JessiKa is wearing Ego Assassin) and Nick Perks.

Next up are shots from Roperookie (where she's wearing Vile Sindustry), sideshowsito, and Roperookie again.

Lastly, here's another shot from sideshowsito and two shots from Vincent Lions in which JessiKa is modeling Ego Assassin again.

***As usual, all models, photographers, and latex designers in this post have their own galleries on Model Mayhem and/or Deviant Art.***

These are a few of my favorite things: When Plants Attack!

Here's the companion piece to another of "Favorite Things" blog entries, When Animals Attack. As usual, with most of the pictures in this post, the MC is mostly a matter of opinion: if you kink that way, you'll see it. If you don't kink that way, you'll just see what the photographer wanted you to see...which isn't nearly as much fun. However, the image at left (shot by and "starring" Revel/Silvergrey) was staged with MC in mind. I found this image on Deviant Art, and while it doesn't seem to be there anymore, I featured it on my blog once before and quoted the commentary text beneath the picture. So, fortunately, I still have it. Note that the italics and underlining are the artist's own:

In Irish folklore the Dana O'Shee are a fae, elven people that live in a realm of beauty, their nobility akin to that of our own Age of Chivalry, eternally beautiful and eternally young. They surround themselves with the pleasures of the Arts, they live for the hunt, and to this day can be seen riding in procession through the Irish countryside at twilight, led by their King and Queen. However, the Dana O'Shee are not benevolent creatures, despite what their unearthly beauty may imply. They are vengeful and treacherous and possess a streak of mischievous malice, and many have whispered that their true home lies deep in the shadowed groves of the Realm of the Dead. Hearing even a single chord of their otherworldly music leaves one stunned and lost to the mortal realms for ever, finding themselves prey to the Dana O'Shee's hunt or enslaved in their Court as servants or playthings.

Revel titled the picture itself Unseelie Yearning.

Now here are a few more pics that will require a tad more imagination to connect with MC. I think you'll enjoy them anyway, though. And who knows? Maybe they'll give someone a story idea.

First up is a shot by photographer Chi-Rue99; followed by a makeup job from Andrea Perry-Bevan; and lastly another shot of Revel, who does her own photography.

Next up are photos from Daniel Murtaugh, Draconian Artworks (See if that one doesn't remind you of Tabico's Yellow), and another shot by Chi-Rue99.

Lastly, here are one photo from Karin Stenvall and two pieces of digital art from Kassandra Vizerskaya.

These are a few of my favorite things: Hedony Design

Hedony Design is a French company that takes a different approach to latex design than many of their competitors. From my 100% amateur point of view, I can best describe this way: Hedony seems more interested in accentuating natural beauty than making torpedo-boobed plastic nun costumes for torpedo-boobed plastic women. And to me, that's a good thing.

I hope you'll think so, too. You can see from the pictures here that some of their designs are plenty fetishy, even without the squeeze-toy breasts; while others are things you could actually wear for a night on a town...in certain towns, anyway. None in my neck of the woods, but, well, you know. ;-)

Anyway, above is my favorite object of lust, Ulorin Vex, wearing Hedony for a photo shoot with Nick Saglimbeni. Just below, Nicotine (by Maxime Avet) and Apnea (by Kencredible) demonstrate two very different approaches to Hedony's most popular design; while the model in the green halter top is one I showed you before, when I said she looked like my idea of Carly from The White Album. She and the rest of the models on this page were photographed by Josselin Guichard, a cofounder of Hedony. They aren't well known enough for me to bother telling you their names (although you can find them in the file names if you're interested), so just sit back and enjoy the pretty pictures instead.

These are a few of my favorite things: H.R. Giger, Part II of II

And now I'm back again for the second half of the H.R. Giger post I started this morning. If you somehow managed to miss that entry, just scroll down a tiny bit. I started uploading Giger images this morning, but Blogger was misbehaving and I had to quit and go to work. Fortunately, the pipeline seems to be flowing more smoothly now....Sorry, no, that wasn't meant to be a pun. But hey, it works! And anyway, here are the rest of the images I wanted to share with you.

I'm throwing in this last picture just to mess with your head. Did you know H. R. Giger did some illustrations based on The Lord of the Rings? I certainly didn't, not until I started investigating those links I mentioned in my earlier post. Yep, there are several Giger pictures titled Mordor, and then there's this (and one other, much less interesting) painting titled, simply, The Lord of the Rings. I shudder to think what, in LotR, could possibly have inspired Giger to paint this. Hopefully Professor Tolkien never had to see this painting before he died, because it would surely have sent him to his death - and kept him from ever resting in peace!

But if you really want to give yourself a mind trip, think about this. Giger is famous, in part, as the concept artist behind Alien. He's also known to some as the would-be concept artist of an early, aborted effort at a Dune movie. So now ask yourself, what would the LotR movies look like, if he'd designed them?
