I agree, Monty! Everything has it's place and it's down to the discernment and skill of an artist. Use of light/shade/colour in the correct measure is hw an artist ensures the desired subject of the artwork is the focus.
The sixth one is mine
Me too! I have a soft spot for dark-haired ladies and Sir X's models were often very pretty!Beautiful pics by Sir X. I can’t resist a dark haired damsel..
Oooh yeah, I can’t even decide which victim I most want to be , but the one on the right is rather unique isn’t it… mmmm, so helpless and that hot metal (brand? Pincer?) gets inevitably closer as I shake in my chains…
So nice to see tradition being so respected
You probably don’t need my support, yet you have it. Imho certain b&w images by legends like Farrell or Tibool are some of the most erotic pieces around. There’s even stuff by some guy called Monte (something) that I truly enjoy, although someone needs to inspire him to new erotica as he’s not producing as much today as he once did- although I am in favour of sacrificing quantity In favour Of quality- and old what’s his name is capable of quality on his day!I love a bit of Tibool! But “ probreunuco” or whatever his name is, who has digitally coloured some of them in, has not improved them at all.
Tibool was quite capable of producing works in colour if he wanted to (indeed, he did, under another name), but for these works he chose monochrome for artistic reasons. Instead of respecting that, some people think these pictures need “colouring in”. I would call that (at best) unnecessary, and (at worst) a perversion and betrayal of the artist’s creative vision.
Finally (and with apologies for the rant!) as an artist who works in black-and-white, at least in my non-vanilla work, I both dispute and resent the unspoken assumption that colour is necessarily “better” than black-and-white, or that black-and-white artworks are somehow “incomplete”, or that artists who work in black-and-white are hapless idiots just waiting for some brave colourist to rescue them from their monochrome predicament. All of these assumptions are wrong, and display a depressing level of visual and cultural illiteracy.
There was a guy on tumblr who used to colour in my works, never asked permission, just did it, and posted the results. If Tibool were still alive (which I happen to know he isn’t), he might feel the same way as I did. Anyway, done ranting, and thanks for posting, Gerembeau! Apart from the digital colouring, they’re great photomontages.

Surely that torturer should be wearing thick leather gloves while handling those red-hot pincers.. we wouldn’t want anyone to get hurt, now, would we?
Let me know if you ever recall who that is…
wonderful works！ Is there anymore of
That's enough - we don't allow complete series by Quoom (of for that matter by other artists who have their own sites) to be uploaded here, just a sample is okay.
