Bimbo Medication - October 2020 Patron Request
🕑 Added 2020-10-30 19:00:04 +0000 UTCA bimbofication that focuses on the horror of slowly losing your mind and body.
Last chance to fill out my patron survey! It shouldn't take more than five minutes and will help me get a better idea of your preferences. One participant will win a free 3-part inked sequence! I'll be drawing and contacting the winner in early November.
I feel like this sequence should maybe come with a warning? Being deprived of critical medication is something I wouldn't wish on anyone and I hope it doesn't seem like I'm taking it lightly.
As some of you predicted, this was a toughie. "Horrifying bimbofication" won the vote, but what does that mean?
One option was to ape the horror movie aesthetic: dark shadows and close-ups to evoke a scary look, if not necessarily a scary feeling. I also considered body horror: lumpy, sweaty growths and not recognizing yourself in the mirror. You might call it the plastic surgery hater's version of bimbofication. However, that isn't really my perspective nor am I the best artist for visceral metamorphoses.
I have a real hard time hurting my characters. My TF victims tend to end up horny and happy or, at the very least, oblivious. Even when they don't, I don't revel in their misfortune.
If you think about it, all non-consensual transformations are terrifying, but the source of horror is also their appeal. Loss of control is part of the fantasy. The concept itself is fairly fantastical (real bimbofication is a ton of work!) and we move even further from reality with magical potions, reality-altering devices or, my favorite staple, vague unmentioned causes.
All this to say that, in order to invoke horror this Halloween, I turned to realism. This could have been much darker but I try to err on the side of hot and fun. Hope I've struck the right balance for you.
Happy Halloween, thanks for reading, and thanks for your support!

On a more administrative note, I'm going to stop doing five full updates on months with five Fridays. I've used it as a promotion in the past ("more art for your buck!") but it's a lot of extra pressure and work with barely enough time. I'll still post something, it just won't be a full piece. Thank you for understanding.

Thanks!! ♥

True! Or the short comic with the mosquito swarm in the hospital and the WHO pun. Though both of those are more lighthearted.
Sortimid
Thank you! ♥

That's a fair read, my intention was to present it as ironic punishment for her actions and disgust at sex work, and I had the witch there to show that sex work isn't so bad and they're lovely people on the whole, but I could always improve. Either way glad you read it!
Sortimid
Lucky you!

Going fully mindless Bimbo in a strange far away city, presumably separated from any usual support that might step in and stop the slip into depravity... this is both horrifying and absurdly sexy... well done!
Brandon Booth
Almost kind of works as a squeal to the comic you did a while back about a bimbo plague infecting a hotel.

I haven't read a Limerick story in a while. I've been playing catch-up on stories/comics to read.
Marquis Green
This was a nice twist! I had never seen the whole Bimbo suppressing medication concept before today so this was a delightful treat!
Sortimid
Yay!
Smokey
Whoops. Meant to say I’m always a sucker for horror tinged transformations!
Smokey
Love this! I

Limerick's latest story actually features a bimbofication suppressing drug. I only realized after I had sketched this out, but that's probably where I got the idea. His approach is more fun and lighthearted, though. https://mcstories.com/Bimbex/index.html

And simply *drenched* in nut, apparently. :D

I find the concept of medication that represses a bimbofication the most thought provoking. It does seem kind of obvious, but it's not something you see done that often - usually it's the other way around. Much like real-world chronic diseases that have people medicated indefinitely to suppress ailments. Relating to the horror theme, this sequence equates bimbofication to lycanthopy and other forms of body horror.

Was too lazy to draw the ponytail so let's say it's behind her armpit

Ha, I hadn't realized my opinion would take a load off your shoulders. But I'm glad it did. What's going on with her hair in the last panel by the way?
Sortimid
I've actually read Bimbo Hex! It's very well written, loved the protagonist's compulsions but I'm personally not crazy about bimbofication/sex work-as-punishment.
Janus Rain
*gently slides Bimbo Hex across the table to you* it's a bimbofication novel I wrote that's along these lines, and if you like the happy version, I have Bimbo Clicker also! Both quality work if I do say so myself!
Sortimid
Yay! That's great to hear!
Janus Rain
I think you nailed it! It's kinda framed like addiction, but in a hot way. Very The Fly but sexy, the slow loss of humanity with the deep need for it sprinkled in. Pseudo horror bimbofication is a favorite of mine and I love this!
Sortimid
Glad you enjoyed!
Sortimid
Thank you!
Sortimid
I'm so relieved! Thanks for sharing!

Damn. I depend on some medication myself, and this is, uh... This is pretty spicy. You nailed that anxious fear, and eroticized it effectively.

I think the gradual changes works with this sort of situation - as the medicine leaves her system, the changes become more pronounced. Well done.

wow ;)
Jav
This is awesome. I would love another, longer one :D
