So Tirade has a bit of history. This guy says he wants a mascot design for a gay football team: The Chelsea Cocks. So I give him this sketch and he’s not happy with it, saying “It just looks like a guy in a chicken suit.” (um… duh, that’s what cock mascot would look like, dumbass.) He says he needs it to be “masculine; like a real football mascot” so I ask him to pull reference for me and he sends me a team logo with a cartoon hawk’s head in profile.
So I give him sketch 2 but he doesn’t respond. Dickless loser. Have the balls to at least send an email, yunno? Personally, I think he realized his pun wasn’t so clever halfway through commissioning me. Don’t you love this type of client? The ones who need someone to illustrate how dumb their ideas are? lol. Anyways, I ended up turning sketch 1 into a character.
No real history here… except for the fact that this may be my very first tentacled character. You’d think that with tentacles being so popular in gay toon pr0n that I’d have done this already… but… I have longstanding issues with tentacle pr0n. For some reason, I need to know where the tentacles are coming from– like I need to see the creature. Also, I can’t suspend my disbelief if the tentacles are dicks. Cuz like— an aroused dick isn’t be all prehensile and wiggly, yunno? I’ve written too much on this subject. Oh yea, Maelstrom’s 9th appendage is viewable in anti-heroes.net → members gallery. Enjoy!
