The Beef Underneath

Danny Fenton may have his secrets, but there's a new one he wishes he could show off a little more.

I had the idea for an image with a massively lopsided build like this, and it was relatively straightforward to make. It honestly sort of harkens back to the kinds of things I used to do more of in my earlier work, a simpler concept that didn't need or have a lot of ancillary exposition to get bogged down under, which can make it more frustrating to draw.

In the past, I've usually tried to post something once or twice a month most months, and so the inadvertent hiatus I've been on the past nine months has been a little unusual, as much as it was also quite unintentional. It's mainly been a product of being busier these days combined with how challenging my own personal relationship with NSFW has become. It's not something I try to bring up too often, but it's tough interacting with most of the online muscle kink when you basically have to create and justify your own perspective all the time when every avenue of influence pushes in a different direction. Along with plenty of other things in my life, that relationship broke down for a while recently. I have made a few things in recent months in addition to this that will be posted eventually, and I've even started writing a few stories again (which is something I haven't done for even longer than this unintended hiatus, despite that being my beginnings with publicly-posted NSFW), so there definitely will still be more to come from me. I think that'll remain true almost out of some kind of Pyrrhic, sunk-cost fallacy at this point, as I've kind of oddly staked my claim to being the straight male muscle artist to a degree. There is still a part of me that believes I will someday find the affirmation in this space that has eluded me for over a decade now, even though there's also a realist in me that has felt like giving up on that.

It's been a number of years since I've drawn Timmy Turner; not since my more creatively experimental days have I beefed up the pink-hatted godkid. But he's always lurked in the back of my mind, as much as I focus my attention on Butch Hartman's other big main character. There's never a bad time to switch things up a little...

I was trying to have Timmy tease a little by lifting up his tank top, but ultimately it ended up such that there's not really a lot showing.

Phantom Pump Powers

It's convenient when you can alter your form to really let those extra ghost fights and workouts show the way you think they should.

Danny has some ability to manipulate his body in ghost form, and I've always thought about whether it would be possible for him to give himself a beefier shape with it. (I'm ignoring whether the scene from "Splitting Images" counts for that here.) 

As much as I don't really draw it, I'm also pretty fond of more lopsided growth scenes like this (though I still had to make the slimmer form appropriately beefy, which limited how dramatic the effect could be). Both sizes came out pretty hunky, and I've included them as alts, almost like a pre- and post-transformation image.

It's been a little longer than usual since I've posted; while I've definitely wanted to do some new art and stories, life changes, and not having as much free time anymore due to those changes, have cut down on how much I can draw as of late. Some of those things are finally settling down, thankfully, though I'm still battling with finicky inspiration and my own struggles regarding my place in the muscle art scene as a straight guy with different motivations than most. Rest assured there's plenty more studly Danny, and maybe some other dudes too, on the way in future.

Studly Selfie

Another day, another after-school workout for Danny... though he's always in the mood for a little something extra afterward.

Just wanted to draw a very casual Danny pic for this one; there's not really a whole lot of backstory or anything to it. Just the sort of basic locker room beefcake variety of Danny I've seemingly been making a lot of when I've drawn him recently.

Also, happy 20th Dannyversary! Wanted to do something a little bigger and more directly related for the occasion, but I just didn't have the time. I hope just showing up is still worth it.

Spencer's Tripod

Spencer has some great equipment. And not just when he's filming.

Did I draw Beverly Beverly Heights' budding filmmaker buff for the first time in five years for the sole purpose of making an innuendo gag about things with three legs? Absolutely.

Fit to Bursting

Needing release in more ways than one, Danny unlocks a new level of power he didn't know he had...

Technically, I guess this counts as a transformation sequence, as much as it isn't a proper one like I used to do. I wanted to draw Danny absolutely massive, and the other half of it sort of fell into place after. You might even notice that Danny's not the only one who transforms...

The Stud You Crave

Want some? Come over and have a taste. You know his massive muscles, beefy pecs, and rippling abs -- not to mention that thick, meaty cock -- are irresistible, and so does he.

I'm generally repulsed by real images, so it was unusual I was inspired by a porn cosplayer showing off his (admittedly sizable) length in a Danny Phantom costume. (Maybe the neck-down shot did it?) Anyway, I tried to harness that posing and energy into an attempt to draw the hottest, sexiest, most attractive Danny I've made to this point, complete with yet another foray into shading.
