Fascinating drawing by Mr. Daisuke Takakura


Recently I found a fascinationg drawing by Mr. Daisuke Takakura.

*Beware that there is another Daisuke Takakura, who is a renowned photographer.

I had the chance to look through his works before. But those works did not fascinate me much like the following drawing, even though all his works are very skillfully drawn.

Some of his works are very realistic, almost like he drew or traced from real pictures.

But other works are drawn like comics, which makes it hard to realize that all those works are from the same artist.

He did not have any Japanese Wikipedia page, so I don't have much information about him. He is just introduced as an artist who from time to time contributed illustrations to the Japanese gay magazines such as Samson and Sabu.

Some of his works can be found in the Gengoroh Tagame's erotic art compilation book, Gay Erotic Art in Japan Vol. 3.

I hope to have more chance to see vintage illustrations from artists like Mr. Takakura.

(Map updated!!!) Japanese Gay Beach 釣師海岸(Tsurishi-kaigan/Tsurushi-kaigan)

I came across two sites introducing gay beaches in Japan. Of course there are not enough infomations, but both of them mentioned "Tsurishi-kaigan" or "Tsurushi-kaigan" which means "angler's beach" literally. It is a secret beach in Chiba, surrounded by sea and cliffs. There's no other way to reach but through a small cave made for local anglers. So it's not safe and not easy to go to this place. And the place is not close to the nearest railroad station, Namihana(浪花) station. This place is not an official gay beach nor nude beach. But the surroundings around this area make it almost perfect place for gays. So if you're ready for all the troubles, read on. :) First, you can get to Namihana (浪花) station http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Namihana_Station via JR. If you start from Tokyo, you can go to Chiba station via JR Sobu Line. And then you can reach Namihana station via JR Sotobo Line(the next station from Ohara s...

Korean Bara artist, Unspoken

Another Korean bara arist that I came across at X (former Twitter), Unspoken . As you can see, he's very skilled in drawing and using colors and such. He seems to upload his steamy comics in Patreon from time to time. When I first found his artwork at Twitter, I thought he and Huntersmell  are the same person. ( Click  "Huntersmell" above to read my previous posting on Huntersmell. ) I detected some similarities in their drawing styles. But who can be sure? Thank that I have found another talented bara artist. That's what matters.

Newest comic by Jiraiya

I did not know till today that Jiraiya released his newest comic, Two Hoses, a story about two firemen, through Big Gym (in Japan) and Massive (in US). The picture above is from Big Gym (a gay store chain in Japan) twitter. As you can see, this comic seemed to be based on his previous artwork, which was used for several items. (I really love this artwork, even though I generally love his artwork. Actually I love all of his artworks.)  The 2nd image seems to be a promotional postcard. And the 3rd image is the US version of the comic. The image is from Massive.
