(This somehow got posted in the NetHack gallery) Well now, I don't want to be violating any rules of conduct, nor do I want to ruin anything for anyone else. My comments are meant only as an inspiration--the kind I would hope for for my own art. If I've said too much, I apologize. I can reserve my comments and questions for an email to "artist@grigbertz.com" if that would be better. Or I could--"sniff"--stop making them, if I'm really being bothersome. =) The bottom line: I really like your art (theme and style), and I want to see it continue.

Faile, your questions demand and inspire answers. Question is, do you want these answers, or do you prefer to speculate? We've kept descriptive text to a minimum to give the imagination free reign here.

Whoops, somehow my comment for the Wolflord piece got posted here. Sorry. I do like this one, though. The statuette (fountain?) is great!

Here's a question: With the blindfold on, is she aware that it's an animal ("unicorn") doing the stripping? I like how the scarves (?) are all different patterns, and the way she's holding her legs suggests she's at least a little... pleased... with her situation.

Heh heh. No argument here. =)

Okay, I'm quite sold on the "just you try and make me submit" attitude. I assumed she didn't know what was coming, but she does and she's determined to fight. Awesome! I like it even better now! Definitely my favorite of the lot. Did the model like the finished work?

Okay, you sold me on the "you just try and make me submit" thing. Yeah, she's got that determined set to her mouth. Nice job! Did the model like the finished product?

This is a comission I made, so I know the backstory. She's been posted there as a guard dog, and imagines that she's guarding something or someone - but in reality, she's there more to tease and inspire exactly the feeling you got, Faile.
As for the erotic combat angle, she comes from a setting where the object of combat is to make the opponent submit rather than die, and it is easier to make people submit if you're in a sexy outfit.

Now this girl looks appropriately scared. Nice pose on her, too. I like the decor of the room/hallway--the iron ring near the floor is a nice detail. So, if the master of this house keeps a wolf and a naked maid chained up this close together at night, he/she must be someone... "special"? Hmmmmmm.

Faile35@yahoo.com, remember this is a portrait. The model' normal attitude fairly screamed "just you try and make me submit", and though I didn't see the pose, I think a lot of this attitude is in the picture. So I see it as a challenge - which looks about to be answered very thoroughly.
