Captive (Sparrow, Duchess, toon)

"I was on a training mission!" Sparrow says. "This isn't-"

"Life isn't fair," Duchess says, "precious. I will make sure to drop your friends in ACTION Force a note they just lost a new recruit. Pity. You'll find being my loyal subject quite benef-"

"I will never subject myself to you! You're not my queen!"

"That sort of attitude is counterproductive, especially given the fact your governments stole my power and injected it into you and your comrades. Pity. What's mine is mine, darling."

"Wha-?"

"Take her away!" Duchess says, "and *sigh* put some clothes on her."

And so ends my missing collection with this fun piece that once got rejected from a dA gallery for being too bondage. The admin was right haha, but it shows you two things: never submit to a gallery you didn't clearly read the rules to, and context is everything. I never intended this to be a bondage piece, if taken in context, it is just another scene in the series. Come in on this series on this image alone, and yep, that looks kinda bondage. Context. It's what kills us as artists.

Is is sexual? Well, slightly but only in a playful comic-book way. Duchess is being fresh there with a little brush of her knuckles and a slight press of the breast, likely accidental. I had to go in and hand-edit all those touch points to be perfect, along with the eyes and expressions - so this one was a ton of work. Breast positions too were all hand tweaked, as fun as that sounds it was a lot of work again, with Duchess' squeezed look and Sparrow's spread look which is based off of the actual way fat and muscle work in those positions, though with toon proportions I had to make some guesses about how those would work.

But the two of them are just gorgeous here. Sparrow's expression is perfect in her noob-ish ways. Duchess is calm and cool, and in control. Plus, a question answered and another shocking detail revealed. There's lots to love in this classic scene, and this wraps up my 2014 missing collection. Past this?

It's all new stuff.
