The Novice - Gallery

Well, I guess all council members took a vow of chastity, and besides, I don't think their hearts would survive the stress ;o)

Priapus of Milet

Would have love to the old ones from the council participate as well ;D ahahah, can be hot sometimes to let participate the vilains or the less attractive male you share with us ;D

Chris

Thanks! Glad to hear the images work in telling the tale. Like the silent movies, the images speak for themselves, but some additional text can be helpful at times ;o)

Priapus of Milet

This shows your skill not only as an illustrator but also as a creative storyteller. The narrative - even unwritten - is evident here. It makes seeing the visual images that much more compelling. Bravo! Well done!

RWClassCDLVR

Thanks! Yes, it does :o)

Priapus of Milet

Looove these hot gay devils <3 A guy’s ass looks so much better with a long tail above it heh!

ZeroTheHusky

Thanks and yes, that's always an option, who knows what it will unlock ;o)

Priapus of Milet

Thanks, Robert! Much appreciated and yes, many illustrations but weeks can be long ;o)

Priapus of Milet

I guess I need more demonic gang bangs to unlock my hidden super powers too. Great story. thanks again.

tim hesse

"The sadder but wiser girl's the girl for me..."

tim hesse

Thanks again for this excellent set of illustrations. I enjoyed it and it was very exciting (every week!) what the sequel would be. Unbelievable how many illustrations you can produce in 1 week!

Robert

Great story! Bravo!!! "The Dark Side...!?" the Novice becomes the "Darth Vader or Sith Lord" of the Monk Galaxy!? "Leaving the abbey (in the mountains) and bringing sexuality to conquer the world!" He is amongst us and will turn this world into the "Homoerotic Downton Abbey." (Perhaps different episodes for different places he visits. Super juicy!)

Gulliver

Yes, he's gone to the dark side, leaving the abbey, to conquer the world ;o)

Priapus of Milet

So the little devil is now going out into the world to spread his learnings/ teachings. Hehehe. And spread em he will do. Lol.

Greg Hancock

Thanks! :o)

Priapus of Milet

I'm always love your art and how you did with the character. it was so fucking good <3

Prexmine

Yes, I guess it's just one of those things in life one needs to think about in advance ;o)

Priapus of Milet

"Some soul-searching before taking vows" is very wise advice for LIFE (and Sex)! Many thanks!

Gulliver

Thanks! Yes, lots of twists and turns. Don't want to make it too easy for the novice, always good to do some soul-searching before taking vows ;o)

Priapus of Milet

Great plot, with intriguing twists and turns...cliffhanging suspense! Can't wait to see what happens next! Priapus has superb story-telling skills and imagination!

Gulliver

Yes, I think the novice is still struggling a bit with his avocation. Better to be sure before committing for life ;o)

Priapus of Milet

I'm not too sure about the Novice's vocation. But his avocation seems quite clear...

Jon Goerner

Hmmm.. Yes, perhaps you're right. They don't look very friendly :o|

Priapus of Milet

But wonder what they are going to take from him. Looking like they want his essence. Milk and drain him to feed themselves. Hummmmm.

Greg Hancock

Yes indeed, like a sacrifice :o|

Priapus of Milet

Now back to normal and like a lamb laid on the alter for ultimate sacrifice. God or demons or something in between hummmmm

Greg Hancock

Yes, he's definitively sizing things up! And a good question, mysterious spectators on the balcony :o|

Priapus of Milet

Whoa.

Now, the Novice is saying: "Mine are BIGGER & Hornier! Hahaha!" (I am curious and eager to see what the masked men in black robes on the upper floor will do next...CAN'T wait!

Gulliver

Yes, that probably did the trick ;o)

Priapus of Milet

Yes, he found his inner devil and now the whole hell will break loose! I guess the element of surprise is always a good thing in a story ;o)

Priapus of Milet

Hmm. I wonder if that first imp that snuck into his room at night had something to do with this...

BladeZero

Oh man. Now our novice transforms. They better look out. He is taking over. Hehehe. Did not see that coming.

Greg Hancock

Yes, more and more devils

Priapus of Milet

Pero que diablillos mas diablos jajaja Lo que le espera al novicio !!

FHG

Yes, it's a real devilish thing to do ;o)

Priapus of Milet

The first demon appears to sprout a second tail towards the end of their encounter.

Mike

Yes, it looks like this hell is set for pleasure and the novice had at least hoped for something like that ;o)

Priapus of Milet

Finally, so late I realized that Rodin's Gate leads to a paradise of orgy disguised as hell! There are so many games and toys, and a library full of sex menus as the spiritual gateways toward salvation! Novice's complex facial expressions reveal that, somehow, he knew & expected this ...

Gulliver

Yes, big trouble! But he's in hell, after all... ;o)

Priapus of Milet

Yes, you're probably right!

Priapus of Milet

Yes, it must be hell down there! :o)

Priapus of Milet

I’m oh hell. Our hero novice is in trouble. David. What are you leading him to?

Greg Hancock

Hmm, looks like our Novice either saw a certain someone or was looking desperately for that someone in the last few slides.

BladeZero

There seems to be demons everywhere!

Darrell BlackandBlue

Beyond Rodin's Gates of Hell is quite the pleasure/torture garden.... ooh tantalizing!

Stefan

Thanks, Greg! No, Novice is now stuck in a dungeon, surrounded by horny demons, weird men with masks, and no way out! Bas situation to be in :o|

Priapus of Milet

David things just get better and better, for us but not so for our young novice. The poor guy. Finds torture chamber, little devils and sexy victims. And now who is coming? Friend or foe? Going to be a clash of swords ⚔️ of the flesh.

Greg Hancock

Thanks! Interesting question! The text came with the model of the book. I tried to trace the origin, with several texts and translation searches, but no results. The illustration is from the Bible moralisée. I've added both images to the Zip-file that you can download at the bottom of the WorkDoc post: https://www.patreon.com/posts/76955112

Priapus of Milet

Gorgeous little devils! And your attention to detail is amazing! Love your illuminated book (I don't dare to call it a bible). Where did you take it from? Some is easily readable (yes I can read Latin). Perhaps you could show the text in the Workdocs? If it is a proper readable text!

Folk

Thanks, Jan! Well, as they say, I hope to go to hell, for all my friends will be there! Besides, going by the scriptures. I'm sure the little devils have far more interesting things to do ;o)

Priapus of Milet

Hi David, this works seems to be from heaven directly - whenever the creatures are to active for heaven and even look more like hell - but it seems to be much more pleasure there...Thanks for this fantastic novel and I am looking forward what our novize will do with this nice men all around...

Jan

Yes, it seems there was no limit they go through to test the novices in those days. But I guess they had very different challenges at that time ;o)

Priapus of Milet

It is much more interesting than the PE classes in my college freshman year...should have considered being a monk! Greg is right: this episode turns out to be one of your BEST, with striking originality! All your works are great!

Gulliver

Thanks, Greg! Much appreciated and always nice to hear :o)

Priapus of Milet

Holy …. Truly wondrous creation. But that young novice better get a move on and save that hunk from his tormentors. David you just keep improving with each update. Visual as well as story line. Well done my friend.

Greg Hancock

Thanks! That's really good to hear, much appreciated! Yes, it has been a busy week, but some good models and interesting references always help to pave the way, it does half the work for me ;o)

Priapus of Milet

In terms of both the quantity and quality of your artistic production, this week's output is phenomenal! So is your captivating plot and character development, keeping the audience on the edge of their seats (and cumming...)! Your set design with the castle as the stage & maze is world-class! I am sure the Novice and the audience will have a lot of fun! Thank you so much!

Gulliver

Yes! He was perfect for that role! And Ron Perlman as Salvatore :o)

Priapus of Milet

Thanks! :o)

Priapus of Milet

Very interesting 🤔

Greg Hancock

Yes, poor innocent novice and nasty imp, no rescuing from that! ;o)

Priapus of Milet

Oh the temptation of the poor innocent novice. Was hoping the Knight was coming to his rescue. And is it just me or has that imp now showing two cocks? See two bodies and three cocks.

Greg Hancock

Thanks, Roberts! Glad you like the darker series. Somehow the Gothic and erotic work well together, with enough stuff to keep it exciting and interesting to watch and to work on. Animated scenes are indeed the next best thing, but yes, that's a whole different game ;o)

Priapus of Milet

Thanks! It was a very good idea from Riband to do that! :o)

Priapus of Milet

Thanks, Jan! Yes, the door to hell is now open and there is no turning back for the novice. I'm afraid he'll have to go all the way down and face every possible temptation. I'm afraid the demon was just the beginning ;o)

Priapus of Milet

Not sure, for there are so many movies with that title. You can find out all about the door in the WorkDoc of the project

Priapus of Milet

Thanks, Nicholas! I get the idea, and it's a very long word that I've never been able to remember :o)

Priapus of Milet

Oh and I forgot you to tell that I’m exalted to see your ‘older work’ last week altogether in one map. Thank you so much, it took me a few hours looking at all the details. 🫢🥰

Nicholas Witkamp

Very exciting. I am totally interested what we will find behind the "Gates of hell" - especially when the demon left this totally nice seduced novice alone when the gate opended! Extremely good story behind. Thanks! Very suprising to see that the demon has four hands when he really enjoyed our novice but of course - it makes sense then we has two boners to enjoy him. The more you can get the more you want.

Jan

Do I get it right if you were inspired for the enormous door by the movie ‘The Haunted House’? 🤔🤫

Nicholas Witkamp

I should find new words for you to describe this maybe this should just do…supercalifragilesandexpliadisdosyes.. or something likes this than. Well I realize it’s also not very new but you get the gest of what I mean David 😉😋

Nicholas Witkamp

The young novice being taken in his sleep is probably one of the hottest scenes you've done. I prefer the darker stories that you produce. The level of detail is outstanding. The positioning of the sleeping novice across the thigh of the devil, for want of a better description, the detail of body hair and spots and moles make the scene incredibly life like. Would like to see this scene animated but I realise that's a whole new ball game. It's stuff like this that keeps me coming back.

Michael Roberts

Thanks! :o)

Priapus of Milet

Love the donkey!

Mike

Yes, especially the life of a novice is full of dangers and temptations. They go through hell to test their vocation ;o)

Priapus of Milet

This episode opens so many different portals to different worlds and possibilities! (I did not realize that young monks' life is so carnal and dangerous at the same time...)

Gulliver

Thanks, Folk! Good question and time will tell ;o)

Priapus of Milet

Wow, Lucifer, Morning Star! So magnificent! But the watchful knight in the other monastery had him first... how will this play out?

Folk

Perhaps they're both in it together, to see if the novice is made of the right stuff, to resist a big temptation ;o)

Priapus of Milet

This well-endowed, long-tailed macho guy is perhaps a TEST, plotted either by the Church or the Devils. Hope our Novice passes the test and finds his true love!

Gulliver

Perhaps this is just what he was waiting for, after this encounter with the saint ;o)

Priapus of Milet

This doesn’t look good for our young monk. His hero better arrive soon to protect him again.

Greg Hancock

Hmmmm... it all sounds very ominous. But something is definitively going on there ;o)

Priapus of Milet

Hmm. A lich? A vampire? Either way, that brief shift of the leader's face suggests some kind of glamour is being used.

BladeZero

Thanks, Gulliver! Yes, a decayed place with creepy dwellers. The novice is definitively out of place there and not well at ease to spend the night there alone.... :o)

Priapus of Milet

Despite the looming danger, the castle looks spectacular, with myriad exquisite details & intriguing dimensions. We could imagine how grand it was in its heyday. And such a dark milieu and creepy men, in a peculiar way, set off The Novice's youthful purity and beauty! David-Priapus does a GREAT job again! Breathtaking artistic concepts and techniques!

Gulliver

Yes, probably all a bit too old for him ;o)

Priapus of Milet

Yes, there's a bit of an age gap in this scene, not the hero is not a virile company at the moment ;o)

Priapus of Milet

Just going to say the same thing Gulliver. Young blood into the old den of …. Ancient UN dead?

Greg Hancock

"The Novice" looks under 25, but all other men, including the armored guard at the doorway, in this castle, look over 300-year-old...Hope his (naughty) guardian angel(s) show up ... ... soon!

Gulliver

Yes, strange foreboding place. Final destination and journey's end, the start of a whole new adventure :O)

Priapus of Milet

Thanks, Nicholas, and welcome back! Most kind of you and much appreciated! Have a great week too, till next update :o)

Priapus of Milet

Yes, an angel with his furry accomplice, leading the innocent novice into a trap. Naughty guardian ;o)

Priapus of Milet

Hi, Stephen! A long time indeed and thanks, that's great to hear :o) Yes, a lot of work, but great fun to do :o)

Priapus of Milet

Now that’s what you call a guardian angel. And sweet way to pass the night and stay warm in a cold gloomy place. But the place he is heading too looks forbidding.

Greg Hancock

My dear David- it's been so long since I've I made any comments - these reders are magniifent - the best I've seen of your work since I started as a sponsor - I cannot imagine the hard work you put into them, you have shown so much talent as an artist but these area real inspiration -

Stephen F Clissold

Another castle, another Knight? Usually, if one finds a knight, one finds a whole brotherhood of knights. Hope the monk meets many, many more sexy and loving knights every night!

Gulliver

Hi David, I’m glad to be back! What a beginning. Very cold but also very hot. Your stuff is oh so goood. For me this is where dreams are made. I can almost live in them Your stories are beautiful but you’re also are a real MASTER of creating atmosphere. If I only could I would love to live in these, your worlds. Love Nicholas and have a fantastic week.

Nicholas Witkamp

Thanks, Folk! Yes, a short addition at the end, as a cliffhanger, to announce the next chapter ;o)

Priapus of Milet

Nice! It could have ended with the 4th picture before the last. It felt like it, scrolling down. But then he goes round the corner and there is this behemoth of another castle, almost showing its teeth!

Folk

Thanks! Glad you enjoy the series! Yes, I guess the Knight is something of a transformation, who knows where he comes from during the dark cold nights?

Priapus of Milet

The Knight is a beautiful creature ! What a nice surprise for the novice to get visited so. I suppose, that the Knight is only the tranformed form of the monk. Lets hope that he stays friendly to the novice ... As in the complete fantasy world, I always hope for transformation in crazy creatures for the maximom pleasure of all erogenous zones :

Undiesfan

Yes, always a good thing to keep some armor on, just in case... ;o)

Priapus of Milet

He's on his way ;o)

Priapus of Milet

The knight and the monk look like twins, and they are both "free-ballers." Although the knight loves to keep his armor (pauldrons, rerebrace, couter, vambraces + cuisse, poleyns, greaves, & sabatons) partially on as "turn-on," his weaponry is all natural: the gaze, tongue, hands & fingers, and the knight-JUNIOR! The monk takes all these as a pro; obviously well-trained!

Gulliver

Oh man. Send that knight my way.

Greg Hancock

Thanks! :o)

Priapus of Milet

Excellent addition of nipple play :)

BAS

Thanks! Yes, that's very true. Enough ugliness around us everywhere these times. Adding some beauty, pleasure, and affection is well-needed. I think we can all use some positive distraction at times ;o)

Priapus of Milet

David, your ideas for mystic and dramatic stories are super ! We know, bad and good exists all over our planet and the space. But we know even more, that finaly the good is much stronger. And sharing (sexual) pleasure is very well behavour : You LOVE your next-beeing by giving pleasure and affection and so you receive even more back and all concerned (I love sex only in groups so much) are HAPPY at least. That the better world and by doing it, we change our insured planet to a (a bit) better place !

Undiesfan

Thanks! Much appreciated :o) I'm trying to lure you into this new adventure with all the tools available ;o)

Priapus of Milet

Yes, the 1st 41 pics.Great art work on desing in all the details - love the ambience !

Undiesfan

Now we're talking about heir tail?... ;o)

Priapus of Milet

The mini "demon" has a, in terms of proportion, giant body part. While the knight and monk have yet to revealed theirs...nor have the snow wolf and the donkey!

Gulliver

Perhaps he's both, and perhaps both are not so innocent as well ;o)

Priapus of Milet

Demons may take different shapes, but so do saints and protecting angles. And this might just be that case. A knight to protect the innocent 😇.

Greg Hancock

Yes, that's the best thing to do, and then just hope for the best afterward :o)

Priapus of Milet

We all make mistakes Brother Novitiate. Just remember to cross yourself after! 😃

Darrell BlackandBlue

Yes, very true! But he's still a novice, so I guess it's all very new to him at this stage of the story ;o)

Priapus of Milet

A priest should know that a demon can change into any shape in the spirit of temptation...but what hey, right?

Darrell BlackandBlue

Thanks! :o))

Priapus of Milet

I love the opening of new ideas in a winter story ! Thanks and I'm courious what to come up *double smile*.

Undiesfan

Right, who doesn't indeed? :o)

Priapus of Milet

Who doesn't love a properly arched flying buttress!

tim hesse

An animal lover is hot!

Gulliver

Yes, needs to warm up a bit with this weather and I'm sure he's a stickler for ancient traditions. it's a monk after all ;o)

Priapus of Milet

Ah, yes el lobo.... Did not think about that... Seems to fit in as well :o)

Priapus of Milet

Ese lobo....ummmm...se convertirá en un apuesto y fornido Wild walker

FHG

The very cold weather will lead us to very hot scenes; the "newbie" will become a veteran rather soon. The handsome novice is also very considerate that he puts a blanket over the lovely donkey. Soon, we will know whether the young monk follows the ancient tradition of "free-balling" under the robe.

Gulliver

Thanks! :o)

Priapus of Milet

The first view of the church... Breath-taking!

Gaynor Fairbrother

Yes, that's right! Very observant of you :o)

Priapus of Milet

Caspar David Friedrich--pops up everywhere!

Darrell BlackandBlue

Thanks! That's wonderful to hear :o)

Priapus of Milet

Lol. First cause I really enjoy your creativity and the worlds you take us too. Is my perfect escape from my reality. Thank you so much David.

Greg Hancock

Thank! First to comment as always!! Much appreciated and sounds like a good start :o)

Priapus of Milet

David. This is already starting off great. The details and design are amazing. The ruins are impressive and the wolf is fantastic.

Greg Hancock
