TUG LIFE ( M/M )

[LK3869]

... And the last one to date ( others in the works ), a flashback to the LaCrosse player kidnap:

DEER HUNTING copy.jpg

"Hunter "the antelope" Lafitte planned to lay on his cool ride's hood in another kind of compagny. Like, say, Amber from the cheerleaders... He thought he had the good life: good looks, sporting skills ( LaX 's OK, but is reaching third base with cheerleaders on your still hot engine considered as a sport? ), flashy convertible and a weirdo from the local news even found him a cool alias to distinguish him from the beefy footballers...He found out that very few girls like to get hit by a freight train but they'd indulge him with his mechanic fetish.

Too bad for him, bankers love to have pics of their family around their office, to convince you they're real humans...
Hunter's dad worked at the head of the local bank and Dilon Monte couldn't help but notice the kid posing proudly in his LaCrosse gear on the classy furniture behind the money guy explaining him why they'd seize all their lands and farm. "Bad economy, falling prices and, seriously guys, don't tell me you didn't read the microscopic lines about variable rates? "

The now parentless bros thought they had their own version of the good life when they inherited the property and used it for various para-legal (and semi-lucrative, they were slackers...) businesses...

A few days later, when he and big bro Kevin spotted the Antelope in his bright orange mustang, they saw red and jumped to hasty conclusions... Class war and forced cash flow in Apaloochee county! Little did it matter that "poor" Hunter had worked a few summers to at least participate in buying the car and that his parents saw it as a decent reward for top grades... It's a cruel world.

Jumbo and Sneaky-B borrowed one of their cousins' double cab F-150 ( their own rusty ride with faded Dixie flags on the doors would have been too recognizable ), ambushed the mustang and forced it out of a lonely forest road between Hunter's posh prep school and the Lafittes' manor-like home near the country club.
They left his helmet and crosse on the hood, splattered with a jerican worth of pig blood, for the show... Quite graphic debuts for their improvised criminal career."

Huge fun with the cars, but very long coloring and assembling on this one...

[mention]LK3869[/mention] Simply fantastic, my friend.
I'm always in awe of these remarkably vivid scenes you draw.
The colours, the expressions, the eyes, the minute details...really captivating stuff!

You truly are very talented.

[LK3869]

[mention]bondagefreak[/mention] thanks, chum! While I was drawing cars, I checked Honda CR-Vs... (just so you know that i try to keep pace )

[Barryjem]

Check out the Marek Sarba Art Gallery for some really great tug paintings. He sells prints for a reasonable price too.

[LK3869]

Thanks for the tip, [mention]Barryjem[/mention] . Don't know the name, but I'll sure check it, if that's "really great"

EDIT: I checked and I'm not sure about any possible connection... He does marine and classical portraits.

[mention]LK3869[/mention] No worries, I'm alerting the mods about this member.
The user is probably someone who was banned in the past and is rejoining just to cause mischief and chaos.

All four of his/her posts and complete bull.
Visit his/her profile and read what's been posted on the forum so far: https://www.tugstories.com/memberlist.p ... ile&u=4907

Apparently he/she tried to tag you yesterday, in response to a comment that you never made, saying how he/she's gonna find photos of the kidnapper's for his/her story. Thing is, that isn't her story and you and the other user he/she tagged never even posted on that thread before.

Three days ago, he/she also posted one of my threads to say that he/she will leave my post where it is instead of moving it, because I posted it in the correct section.

[LK3869]

[mention]bondagefreak[/mention] Thanks mate... Thought about a clever spambot that would make connections between "artists" or a very unclear way to attack my awesome talents by comparing them to a neo-con painter People have strange strategies...

But hey, I can do "marine art" too: https://www.deviantart.com/nicelk/art/M ... -729020776

PS: busy planning our move to the country and renovation work on our future house, lots of byers visiting our flat and distractions torpedoed July schedule...

[LK3869]

This one will fit right here... (insanely proud of it):

[Xtc]

. . . and quite rightly too.

[kevweasley]

Well you should be. It looks great

[MaxRoper]

Totally fabulous (as usual). Glad to see you're still at it.
(We don't need no stinking color.)

[LK3869]

Thanks @kevweasley and @Xtc for breaking my weak attempt at modesty...
And @maxroper : so much at it that it's hard to find the time to read for new inspiration... But I've made progress on your Leslie Cannon, and there's your recurring Eddie who needs a face, or at least a silhouette.
The hardest part is finding good mature models like in this one, men with kids eyes so the emotional impact isn't lost. In porn or kinky sites where I hunt for faces and muscles, most of the guys act so bad they don't convey much and it falls flat. (so to speak hehe)

[LK3869]

Fresh ones so you don't have to go looking for them on DA...
Wasn't completely satisfied with "Boosted", so did "Reboosted"... And a little fantasy with a singer (love his eyebrows, wonder if it's natural or shaving...) and two dudes from BDman brazil.

I should have found out about this thread a long time ago, I do now realize what I have missed!

These pictures are awesome!

I know, I should build a huge neon billboard with arrows, or spread flyers promising free drinks for every visit XD Thanks for your enthousiasm!

[MaxRoper]

I came for the free drinks, stayed for the amazing pictures.

To me, the two hardest things to draw are hands and sneakers. LK3869 is a magician with both (and everything else).

[LK3869]

To me, the two hardest things to draw are hands and sneakers.

I confirm they come easy to me, probably because you see your own hands all the time, especially if you draw; and I started drawing sneakers as soon as I started to draw tied up boys - something like thirty years ago, which is quite some practise - because the two were kind of the same thing to me. (rolling eyes smiley for this "people are just dolls with accesories" thought. Go back to sleep, young LK!)
And handgags were my first obsession, so...

[LK3869]

I know, I know... Long time no post... But just as I started to get my old routines back in the new house, we started major renovation work. Havin' a blast with it, BTW; it's still my official line of work.

A late Halloween pic for DA's Kinktober.
And two more recent ones, a visit to the dorms at Rough City and the first of a series based on JD sports online catalogue, this site being a cornucopia of potential tiers and tiees:

[cj2125]

Welcome back! You've been missed! And of course I love your drawings! The Halloween one is really creepy and I almost can picture the stories behind the other two drawings!

[bondagefreak]

Commented on the lower two pics on DA, but the first one I've not seen before.
Really hits the spot for me! But I think you knew that already

This is fantastic, my friend.
Can't tell you how thrilled I am to see you on here.

[Xtc]

I think I spot a snake in the grass. No, a shark in the water.

[LK3869]

Thanks guys, that place always feels so good !
And yes,Xtc, there's a shark hidding in the Halloween pic, a strange species that lives only in Lake Michigan... One of those youngsters who think half-phonetic messages are all you can do with letters. He does like literature when it's about him, though

[superbound]

Welcome back! You were actually one of the first that I spoke to when I joined a few years back and you made me feel so welcome. I left for a while and came back. This is not the same name (it started with kidnap.) I don't really post anymore, just come to poke at stories and talk to friends (which is why I came back) Some changes made (RE: Social media and links,) made me leave for a while, but I understand why it was done, from privacy issues and their age. But I live the scene for real, TUGS is just not a fantasy to me, I play it out and play a ton in real life.

Still the same great people here with a lot of great stories. Welcome back

[LK3869]

@superbound :
I missed talking to some people too, and the stories they come up with and that can be found here only.

As for the 'issues' you mentioned: most privacy issues vanish with drawings, although mine owe a lot to RL photographs posted by others.

Age issues are trickier, and harder to understand for non-gay audiences. Even same age on same age appears weird if done/shot by adults/older guys. The mere fact that we're 3% at most of the population results in more inter-generational interactions, going both ways.
It recquires endless pedagogy and self-checks, and also that we refrain from sharing content that won't be easy for general audiences.

That's why you won't find my youngest boys here, although they're presented in strickly non-sexual context. ( and even if I stick to the opinion that all those games and adventures are proto-sexual at the very least... even if that doesn't mean all those rope and tape happy kids will turn gay later.)

The paradox being (some) youngsters love such contents but they're all too young to produce it themselves ( and then, us aduts looking at that would still appear suspicious... sometimes rightly so, we musn't be blind. You often read frightening comments, and I'm the first one to find it sad, because I certainly not advocate mature going after immature. )

Almost an official disclaimer here, but like said above: endless pedagogy required. Strange thing is: posting 'older' guys in more sexual scenes next to tied-up teens does bug me on DA, and this site's policy resolves that. Here, my almost systematic violence and NC angle is what gives me aftertoughts... (not that much, the bunch of avid subs and agressive doms haunting the place saw to that. Thanks, guys!)

[kevweasley]

I love your art as always. I feel uncomfortable seeing really old men abusing young teens in art. That seems to be a theme in Japanese manga, which I can't understand how that can be sexy. Each to it's own I guess. Your art is different since it is just pure TUGs and although the teens are tied up it is not drawn in a disgusting way like the one example I mentioned. What i can't understand is why people get so upset seeing teens tied up and gagged (boys mind you, girls they seem to have no issues with). It's just art and if you read any Hardy Boys book and such they are full of tugs .

Thanks again for lighten up the day with your amazing art.
