I really did seem to have a thing for kings and tickling back in the day, didn’t I? In this illustration from 2007, a handsome king takes a special interest in the hunky muscular men in his dungeon, especially if they’re ticklish. Although this particular strapping prisoner appears to be enjoying his exquisite torment. Looking back, I think this piece holds up as one of the sexiest bodies and pairs of feet I’ve ever drawn. Enjoy “The Blacksmith and the King”.
