Anono1323 - 5 years ago

Hey wgere did most of your art go? You drawing again?

MrNobody - 5 years ago

Got a link?

RoTheHuman - 5 years ago

Wow, it's been a while since we've seen you. do you have more art on your patreon yet?

MrNobody - 5 years ago

Rod is back, you can return to pestering him. :P

thisgirlroolzz - 8 years ago

Where did you go Rod, I hope you are ok!

RandomSpectator - 9 years ago

Where is the next part?!?!

thisgirlroolzz - 10 years ago

Ohh! You meany! I was really enjoying the story and poof, to be continued, LOL

NewYorkRod - 12 years ago

Slow and steady. LOL

grill93 - 12 years ago

Great job on those highlights!

NewYorkRod - 12 years ago

I have her spine in my hip pocket. Haven't you ever seen contortionist? Actually, that pose is not that weird. I had a girlfriend who would do that just to torment me. She was so limber she could drop into that pose easily. Is Rue the star who was good with the bow and arrow? I loved the movie but thought it a shame that they put twelve-year-olds in with the older contestants. I don't think very many lasted past the cornucopia, which, by the way, was the stupidest construction I have ever seen in a movie.

Bright - 12 years ago

This looks interesting.

Umbrage00 - 12 years ago

Beautiful !

Dr_Gog - 12 years ago

Epic! Glad to see you back! The hungry games begin!

nephilim - 12 years ago

The second one on the left - Y U HAVE NO SPINE?

As for the rest - I can't wait to see your take on Rue ~

NewYorkRod - 12 years ago

It was pink and shiny.

grill93 - 12 years ago

Again I'm amazed by the form of the torso and the way you draw her face. Great!

Doctor_Dweeb - 12 years ago

Nice. Wonder how she got into this situation? Oh well, lucky for us she has.

Dr_Gog - 12 years ago

her expression is price less! Once again you are a master of your craft! Happy halloween!

Bright - 12 years ago

That flesh tube looks cold.

Doctor_Dweeb - 12 years ago

Man I'm looking forward to seeing the finished version!

nephilim - 12 years ago

Oh that is so so so hot. Thank you so much ~ (In NYRod's defense, my spine -can- do that. We flexible chicks are blessed). That is delicious.

NewYorkRod - 12 years ago

Thank you. The idea of the prey being that vulnerable and not knowing what is coming enhances the power of the drawing, I think.

NewYorkRod - 12 years ago

I often use Heather Carolin as a model. Her spine is really flexible.

StalkOBroccoli - 12 years ago

I like the atmosphere this creates. Its pretty fluid.

Bright - 12 years ago

I think the setting looks good, and the idea is pretty neat as well.

Her spine looks off.

NewYorkRod - 12 years ago

Thank you. It's the closest I can come to giving you an orgasm LOL

nephilim - 12 years ago

You did me proud ~ This was beautiful.

NewYorkRod - 12 years ago

I'm a real fan of that period, with a touch of the sixties and seventies thrown in. I had a chance to meet and work with H.R, Giger through his manager for a while. I helped him out with their lawsuit against the studios over the Alien creature rights.

TastyToni - 12 years ago

Your style reminds me of one of the old 2000ad comic book artists. I'd have to did out Alan Moore's Future shocks or some old Judge Dredd graphic novels to say which one. I find this moreso in some pictures than others. In this pic I especially find it so...

NewYorkRod - 12 years ago

There is something very vulnerable about a woman who has just had several orgasms. She can't resist anymore. :D

damselnlace - 12 years ago

Once the creature is done with her she will be begging to be eaten.

NewYorkRod - 12 years ago

This one thought a massage might be in order. It's the coward's foreplay. LOL

NewYorkRod - 12 years ago

It's amazing that in real life, the snake crushes the prey so it dies before it eats so the prey can't endanger the snake while it swallows. It almost always swallows head first to keep the limbs from getting in the way. In vore, we prefer the prey alive and struggling and often having orgasms during the process. and they go down feet first so we can enjoy it more and they raise their arms as their shoulder go in. Num num.

damselnlace - 12 years ago

Eat her up.

NewYorkRod - 12 years ago

I'm doing a series of photos of hands for references. I have problems with some views because the palm obstructs the view of the fingers. But I'm going to ask a girl to pose her hands for me and do about two rolls of shots. That's the rest of her in the snake. I drew her first. My women are long and lean, not like the shorter and chubbier girls I see a lot of. I'll try doing a monsters that is more transparent. The cutaway view seem to be best when the girl is all the way in. But a gelatinous transparent creature should be fun. I'll do the girl first, scan it and color it, and then do the creature around her. Thanks for the idea.

cjjj - 12 years ago

I like this one although the hands seem a bit odd, also is that another person in the snake a bit further along?. I don't want to push you seen as though you have only just started with the actual swallowing vore but have you ever attempted cutout/xray view showing what's going on inside the snake/worm while the girls are been swalloed? if not id love to see your try on it.

NewYorkRod - 12 years ago

Gee! Everything grows so big here!

NewYorkRod - 12 years ago

Thank you. I'm going to get back to my vore now. He he he.

Bright - 12 years ago

This one I think is pretty useful.

NewYorkRod - 12 years ago

You always bring a smile to my face.

nephilim - 12 years ago

Oh o-o how cool

Bright - 12 years ago

Hmm, interesting.

NewYorkRod - 12 years ago

Your right. But my comment about "in the computer" related to making a color using a computer paint program. When painting, using black is a no-no, since it robs the main color of its life. In a paint program, the color we see is what we work with, not the way light works or how the computer screen's pixels are colored, so the color wheel still rules since that's what we are seeing and how the color algorithms are calculated. The secret to the way light makes colors is that the color we see is the one NOT absorbed by the surface of the object that light hits. Until light hits it, what color is it? And how does the light know which colors need to be reflected? This is a great question, since until the light hits an object, there's no way for the object to know what color it is, nor is there any way for the object's surface to know. Fascinating. Oh well.
My head hurts now, LOL.

empatheticapathy - 12 years ago

Actually, there is one exception to the primary/secondary colors thing: In additive color (ie: mixing different colored light), green is considered a primary while yellow is a secondary color, made by combining red and green.
But of course, far more art is made with paint/ink/etc than with light, so this is just footnote.
That said, additive color IS relevant in relation to things like television screens and computer monitors, as these things create color by emitting light (so the screen you're looking at right now makes yellow by combining red and green pixels).

NewYorkRod - 12 years ago

In the computer, anything works. But try setting the complimentary on that black layer and see what you get.

Bright - 12 years ago

As of late, I do not shade through using differing colors, but instead I have a layer above the color layer where I use black. Then I change the layer opacity to get shade.

JackJackal - 12 years ago

Lovely! ^-^ Though we all want more vore! =P

Saiai - 12 years ago

Being that I have not been employed for my art (I have a grandfather who is a retired art professor) I cannot personally imagine the myriad of cool jobs that one with enough artistic talent could get into, but the first thing that comes to mind for me is Frank Frazetta and Boris Vallejo, being I'm a fantasy art nut. But that's interesting to hear, it must have been a hell of a fun job.

NewYorkRod - 12 years ago

Thank you for the kind words. I was a Creative Director at one of the latgest agencies in NYC for 20 years. I also exhibited in several one-man shows in the SoHo galleries. I would do book covers but they don't really pay that well. But thanks for thinking that much of my work.
NewYorkRod

Saiai - 12 years ago

Holy CRAP, dude, with this kind of grasp of traditional media, you could, you know, work for WOTC or a publishing company for novel covers and such. Or an advertising group or something...

NewYorkRod - 12 years ago

Thank you. I just needed to post something while I'm doing new work.

CGR-7 - 12 years ago

Hum... still life. Not bad. =)

NewYorkRod - 12 years ago

Thank you. I loved doing that one.

CGR-7 - 12 years ago

*Gasps* A 1940 Ford DeLuxe convertible. =D
Wow - this is just a spectacular job, NYR. I just love those whitewall tires. =)

NewYorkRod - 12 years ago

I did one for you but the kid is 18. 7 is just too young for me, but I made him a bit chubby. Maybe that will help. Tell me what you think.

voremonster21 - 12 years ago

say about like 7

NewYorkRod - 12 years ago

I'll give it a shot. how old is the kid?

voremonster21 - 12 years ago

i dont have any yet because i just became a new member but can you draw a kid going into a lions butt please

NewYorkRod - 12 years ago

Thank you Voremaster. I'll check out your work.

NewYorkRod - 12 years ago

This shows how light can be synthesized by its relation to dark areas. Any light area, surrounded by slowly darkening areas give the impression of BEING the light source. It's called luminosity. I'll do an example in the drawing tips.

Bright - 12 years ago

Could you perhaps elaborate on your description a bit?

NewYorkRod - 12 years ago

Thank you. I enjoyed this one particularly

NewYorkRod - 12 years ago

Thank you so much. Isn't it amazing that art has this kind of effect on us both?

nephilim - 12 years ago

OH whoa. That's AWESOME

Bright - 12 years ago

That is looking very good.

NewYorkRod - 12 years ago

Thank you...(blushing)

NewYorkRod - 12 years ago

I'm doing these step by step. you can see that you can stop at any point. I'm going to try and take it all the way.

Bright - 12 years ago

I like the color choices of this picture. The flat colors reminds me of some old fairy-tale book.

nephilim - 12 years ago

Ha, the plights of the visual artist xD Artists have trouble with ears apparently, and us writers have trouble with commas.

Bright - 12 years ago

HUm, this could be useful.

StalkOBroccoli - 12 years ago

thanks!

Bright - 12 years ago

Hum, this looks helpful.

Bright - 12 years ago

Ah yes, that makes sense.

I know who Nitro_Titan is. He makes nice art.

NewYorkRod - 12 years ago

Well by that reckoning, you would add in the width of the shoulders, so the arms would be shorter than the legs. The legs are half the height, the center point being the crotch. Let me find something for you and post it. Thanks for the feedback. It really helps me know what needs to be in my drawing tips. (Be sure to look at other artist's work too. Try checking out Nitro_Titan. His work is good and cartoony as well. Great color and shine too.

Bright - 12 years ago

WEll, normally I think that legs are half your height.

And when you stretch your arms out, the length from fingertip to fingertip should equal your height.

NewYorkRod - 12 years ago

There's nothing wrong with that. The legs are a little longer, but for the purposes of vore, the comparison is valid. The standard figure is 7 heads high and the heroic figure is 8 heads high. I like the legs longer. But that's a matter of preference. I'm glad thishelps.

Bright - 12 years ago

I think arms are as long as the legs.

Bright - 12 years ago

Considering that I wear glasses, this should come natural to me.

NewYorkRod - 12 years ago

The way to remember is eyeglasses. The connection is at the hinge where the brow is and that runs back horizontal to the top connection of the ear. The lobe lines up with the lower connection of the nose. The nose measurement done from the tip, not the connection i, is about thirds of the lower half of the face. These are not absolute but certainly sufficient for drawing. If you do a portrait of someone, the measurements guide you and prevent gross error. The secret to great drawings of people is proportions.

Bright - 12 years ago

Huh, I thought the ear was higher up.

Bright - 12 years ago

WEll, personally I like to try new things and always improve.

Sure, send me a link.

NewYorkRod - 12 years ago

Good and thank you. You were one of those artist who I meant not to change your style. I might send you another artist's work who has a pretty good handle on anatomy and volume but works in your style. I could do it PM. Is that ok?

Bright - 12 years ago

Quite useful I`d say.

Bright - 12 years ago

Hm, quite interesting to see it drawn like this.

Bright - 12 years ago

Ah yes, reminds me of one of the earliest tips I found.

The human body is made out of simple shapes.

luvboobies - 12 years ago

Your welcome

NewYorkRod - 12 years ago

In that case I'll do more. Thank you.

luvboobies - 12 years ago

What can I say I'm speechless

NewYorkRod - 12 years ago

I'm working on another. I think you'll like it even better.

cjjj - 12 years ago

Thanks for doing my request it looks amazing!
