wow, this is fantastic
i love the tittering tower, what a brilliant idea
i love the whole idea of people deliberately getting themselves tickled, and that it is al part of a wonderful festivity where everyone is enjoying the tickling... enjoying being tickled, doing the tickling, watching the tickling - that look of excited, nervous anticipation on the lady in the tall green and yellow hat just getting into one of the chairs is delightful
and i love the fact that there are random acts of tickling going on - the girl dressed as a bunch of blueberries getting her sides tickled by the fellow with the big blue head... love that panel
thank you for an excellent, lovely comic
Thanks so much, Detritus, for your lavish positive assessment! I'm most touched! It means a great deal to me that you liked the comic's elements of mutually beneficial tickling; while non-con is way too titillating a dynamic ever to abandon, I've tried my best to build toward sessions which all parties can enter into voluntarily and enjoy with shared enthusiasm. I'd far rather picture our beloved fetish as a joyous duet rather than cruel coercion or victimization; it's certainly the way I hope (and believe) most Community members appreciate it, as a plus/plus win in which each participant is gifted with a measure of empowerment.
The two specifics you site were images I thought quite important and I'm delighted they rated special mention! With the earlier street scene (the one featuring the balloon-laden blueberry suit), I'd hoped to establish Bliss Harbor's randy, free-spirit atmosphere, as well as to show off its anything-goes fashion sense. That the tickling occurs as casual background flavor is no accident… the comic is often so bald on fetish scenes, I find it necessary to shoe-horn such material into the margins! The other scene you mention, the one in the Tittering Tower, is a favorite of mine and I'm so pleased it made an impression! I was eager to clarify the means by which volunteers assume their positions (to show the aperture open to receive willing ankles) and it seemed a prudent idea to couple this with some display of the giddy anticipation you mention. It may seem silly to council economy in a mass of pages like this, but I'd always prefer that establishing scenes cover more than one base.
More later, as soon as I can manage! Such enthusiastic encouragement makes me want to return right back to work! My humble thanks for your generosity!
I love this chapter -- what a wonderful, magical look and atmosphere you've created! Even tickling aside, this is a genuine pleasure to look at and to read.
That's very kind of you! Thanks so much, Munchausen! I was certainly after some bright magic… the tone of this comic is generally so dire and horror-oriented, I was eager for a contrasting atmosphere of lightness and frivolity. Thank you for letting me know my efforts have found a measure of success! It's most gratifying to hear that the non-fetish portions of the comic work well for you! I've always thought of this project as being an adventure story (rather than a fetish story) into which tickling is added for distinctive accent rather than to try to shoehorn it into every scene, regardless of fit. As a result, fetish incident can come infrequently and run rather briefly; but I think it supplies more vivid punch if it seems organic, assuming its place with every other component one might expect from a well-rounded existence.
Thank you for your gracious praise about the visuals! Giving elements of the scene a soft glow effect presented new challenges that took a bit of fiddling with and redoing to get right. Your compliments lets me know it was well worth the effort!
