10-year commemorative art trades

C.A.B A self-confessed long-time lurker, C.A.B started posting pics in 2010, with several different series made. Amongst his well known series include The Irrepressible Mr. Fetish, and Legal Aged Mutant Ninja Tickling Hentai Furry Manga Tentacle Chipmunks in Socks, which are both featured here. C.A.B's work combines heavy BDSM, full-on nudity, and incredibly hilarious humour in his cartoony offerings.
	The HEROIC Mr. Fetish?! I really love the Mr. Fetish series. He's a short, unremarkable-looking, monochrome British man who nonchalantly indulges in his BDSM interests, either at home or in public. He happens to be quite hench as well. Surely someone like him couldn't take on villains Dr. Darang and Scarlett Terra and win. Well, he does, 'cos he's Mr. Fetish. After thrashing Darang, he tortures Scarlett by electrocuting her nipples, caning her soles and following that with some cruel feathering. Ana-Lea and Robi are so grateful he rescued them, though the Chimp is understandibly shocked by what he sees!
	Those furry little bastards catch a break If you've been following the misadventures of Binky, Chubby and Stinky (aka the Chipmunks in Socks), you'll know that not only are their exploits hysterically funny, but also, they keep running into misfortune in their quest to tickle hot female feet. Thankfully, they finally get their chance when they tickle the feet of Ana-Lea, Selis and Robi: Their appearances based on photos of their real-life counterparts. This pic made my face hurt from grinning so much. Not only do the girls look like they're "realistically" tickled, but the Chipmunks' dialogue lampshading their past exploits made me laugh!

English Damsel [link] Someone who I came across and acquainted with fairly recently is Penelope, also known as English Damsel. Pretty much what it says on the tin, English lass Penelope renders and roleplays herself and other females in Second Life, often in bondage, perilous and torturous situations, as well as rendered fetish outfits: Like your classic damsels in distress. She also has a healthy amout of tickle renders too.
	Boys and their toys After acquainting and agreeing with the trade, I decided on what kind of theme I would go with. Going with a sort of machine of different tools to tickle her feet with, I also went with her strapped in a straitjacket to keep with the bondage theme in her pics. First time I've drawn one, and it probably shows, as they're bloody hard and very detailed to draw. The scenario here is that Penelope here is kidnapped by Dr. Darang and tickled, and the Chimp comes to rescue her, only for him to get addicted to playing with the machine that tickles her feet. What a silly boy that Chimp is.
	Chimp vs. Cat(suit) = Winner iz Chimp After doing my part of the trade, we discussed what would be rendered. Penelope would be dressed in a black leather catsuit and wearing no shoes (a look I'm very fond of). The lead-up scenario would have her spying on me, and I catch her in the act, capture her, and strap her down to a conveniently-placed reclining chair. I then take a trusty feather to her bare feet to punish her while monologuing about what just happened. I tell you what, Penelope made me into a handsome-looking devil if I may say so! Thanks for that! Oh, the speech and laughter added by me for my personal taste.

Khali/PsylisiaDragoon [link] A long-time member of the community who I first got to know when she first e-mailed me her artwork in the first year since my debut, Khali is one of the most revered artists around today. Her art is mainly focused on female feet, with many of her characters rooted in fantasy, warrior and other influences. Khali also has an amazingly encyclopedic knowledge of barefoot video game girls like you wouldn't believe!
	A definite no-fly zone Khali's most popular original character (apart from hers, of course) is Kelyn Nightshade. A perennial favourite with many artists, this monochromatic elven minx has had many fan arts dedicated to her by some of the community's best-known artists. However, because of my flaky idiocy, I never got round to drawing her myself. Been missing out though, as she was real fun to draw with her great details and overall look, from her wings down to her toes. Here, Kelyn is struggling to get herself free (and trying not to laugh) after being caught flying into a forest full of living, tentacled plantlife.
	Stretching for the opportunity If you know anything about Khali's art, it's that she has a knack for drawing dynamic poses, which I attempted in my Kelyn pic above. Using Poser to give her drawings a "skeleton" to work with, she can proportion everything accurately with realistic, feasible poses. So, I suggested she should draw relative newcomer Kitty Marie (formerly The Mystery Female) tickled, who is a traceuse and yoga practitioner. The perfect type for Khali to draw. As Kitty Marie takes her shoes off and limbers up, Khali herself nips in, ties her wrists, and locks her legs in place for a good foot tickle. Nice!

FeatherHead/DaTicklaMasta [link] FeatherHead (or DaTicklaMasta in DeviantArt) is a Brazilian artist with a familiar-looking yet idiosyncratic anime style who has been improving these past couple of years making art. He mostly draws well-known animated, comic and video game characters, as well as his mix of anthro-furry and human original characters, all in pencil sketch or coloured in. He even constructs flipbook-esque GIF animations.
	Bonding and bondage For my part of this trade, I chose his human OC Yashika Imura. Known to her mates as Jessica, she's a Japanese student and is quite an achiever in sports, but is a bit of a book-dumb dimwit. Maybe that's how she ended up strapped to a bedpan with no shoes on. Tickling Jessica's feet is my classic character KJ, the affable buxom cockney singer, who the Chimp invited for his little 10 year hootenanny and present Jessica's feet as a gift, letting her be the tickler for once. Ah, ain't that Chimp a nice fellow? Having an old friend over with a Japanese girl for some bonding over bondage!
	On the case of Kaysie For his part of this trade, I suggested that classic character Kaysie be tickled. What he went with on this is a hostage interrogation on Kaysie by two of his femme fatale anthro-girls: Horse-faced Miss Walden and soon-to-be-introduced bear girl Eva Wyatt. Trying to find out the whereabouts of a rare diamond they were looking for called The Heart Of Angola (from his comics), Walden and Wyatt tie Kaysie to a chair and tickle torture her armpits and feet to find out if she knows anything. Kinda reminds you of what Mafia don Louis Fatone does to the Chimp's girls on a regular basis, doesn't it?

Kenzoe64 [link] A fellow English artist, Kenzoe64 has been around for few years already and fairly recently seen his artwork. He's known for his foot tickling pictures of animated, comic and video game characters, as well as his collaborations with another Brit artist katadude (formerly DazandAnime). His artist avatar wears a brown bag over his noggin. Huh. Artists covering their faces. Don't see me doing that... ahem.
	Exploiting the 6th formers Anyone who followed my art closely may remember a series I was going to do called "Exploits of the 6th Form", which featured classic characters Star and Lia, as well as old band members Mitzy and Alex. However, only a couple of pics came about for it. But with this series, they are returning for this one-off. Here, the 4 girls in question are bound in different of ways and tickled in different places with mechanical hands. Kenzoe tries to work the controls, but can't get the hands to tickle all their feet. All the while, he lampshades the Chimp's mask-wearing. Pot kettle black, eh?
	Same girl, different place And now here's Kenzoe turn for his trade. I suggested he should have Monkey Muso Madness stalwart pouter Lauren foot tickled in the stocks. Most likely referring back to the Lauren pic I did for Monkey Muso Madness series 1, Lauren and the Chimp are wearing the exact clothes from there, though instead of tickling her armpits for being an unreliable flake, I'm tickling her feet for the celebrations' sake. Heh, a rhyme. Kenzoe said he was having a bit of artist's block at the time and wasn't pleased with it. Personally, I thought it turned out quite lovely! Don't be hard on yourself, lad!

Cheshire Cat [link] This man needs absolutely no introduction. Cheshire Cat has been on the internet and drawing pictures for the tickling community longer than I have under different pseudonyms, and started using his legendary name in 2002, where he contributed a great piece of fanart to my old and long-defunct Yahoo! Group. An long-time brother of mine in this fraternity, Cheshire's the top cat of the tickling art community.
	The unholy doctorate alliance It's no secret that I love Mab Malvanado: Cheshire Cat's sultry OC catgirl. Contrasting personality quirks, smoulderingly sexy and unbearably ticklish feet. What's not to love? So when it came to this trade, she was instantly a part of it. Also in by default was Dr. Wolfgang Darang and now-newly womanized Dr. Zelda Insaniac, who team up to kidnap Mab and classic character Bey for some serious tickle torture. While Insaniac goes for the common yet brutal tools to torture Bey, Darang simply plays on Mab's cynophobia. An alliance everyone should fear. Which does bring us to the next piece...
	Tales of the Bizarre 2 A long time ago, ol' Cheesy did a piece to commemorate my old Yahoo! Group's 2 year anniversary, with an incredibly funny and creative pic styled like a comic front cover. This is the sequel, and by God it's even better! The evil doctors Darang and Insaniac are here again, and they've just added Robi to their captive collection, with a worried Katsuima (Kahoshiden's OC) and a defiant Cali. All three represent the old triad of ours some years ago. Meanwhile, the Chimp and the Cat are looking ready to strike down with great vengeance. This tribute piece is so unbelievably made of win, it hurts.

Pirata3 [link] A Mexican artist who's been around on DeviantArt for a couple of years, Pirata3 was always a talented artist to begin with, but has been improving leaps and bounds since then. He usually draws pencil sketches, but does occasionally colour in his work very nicely. The best word to describe Pirata's art would be "pretty". Pretty girls, pretty faces, pretty feet. Definitely one of the top new artists around today.
	The hand(s) of God on her sole(s) Pirata was one of the first artists I approached to do this 10 year trade. We agreed that I would draw his Argentinian OC Sabrina getting tickled. Given how Sabrina is such a cute, pretty girl, I wanted to give her such a reaction to having her feet tickled in stocks. Here, she's squirming and swaying while cursing me off in Spanish, while I monologue in an Apocalypse Now non-sequitur. This picture actually went through a couple of corrections before its release. Namely, making Sabrina's skin a little paler and correcting grammatical errors in Sabrina's Spanish. I'm cack at languages.
	Nice to taste you For his side, Pirata drew feisty and dominant OC Estefania tickling the always barefoot Ana-Lea in the stocks. The first pencil draft had Ana-Lea in her old look. Then I asked if he could incorporate her current short-haired, tube-top look. Unlike most of his work, this one was to be coloured as well, and while it was delayed due to his schoolwork priorities, it was worth the wait. The end result is incredibly sexy! Estefi's really getting stuck in to Ana-Lea's feet by running her nails over her soles and sucking her sexy toes. It's seriously hot, and perhaps one of his finest artworks he's ever done.

Darkspeed7 [link] Another fairly new artist who joined DeviantArt a couple of years ago, Darkspeed7 (formerly known as tom-101) is a another young artist who is improving with every picture. He uses colour pencils and focuses on the goings-on of his motley crew of young and pretty American female characters. You can find many of his older stuff under his old name right here, under the Scrapbook section of his Gallery.
	The bad girls are back in town For this picture, I wanted to have two of his OCs tickled: The busty student Taylor McKay and the airheaded cutie Michelle Mayfield. These two young babes would be perfect victims for the two bad girls who were part of the "Classic 8" years ago. Enter the hot-tempered Kitty and the sneering punk Violet. Pleased to be a part of this celebration, they get stuck into these American girls' soles. Taylor is particularly suffering since she has horribly ticklish feet, hence her obsenities. This was made when Darkspeed was using his previous name, and made a minor correction before release.
	Evil hungry kitties! I suggested for this trade that Darkspeed should draw barefooter Ana-Lea tickled by my main modus operandi of tickling feet: Animals licking them. Here, Michelle and Taylor, perhaps wanting to relieve some tension after the above picture, set two cats onto the honey coated soles of Ana-Lea, who's in stocks and in tearful hysterics. While Michelle is keen to feed the cats and make Ana-Lea suffer, Taylor mentions she wouldn't wanna be in her shoes... even though Ana-Lea never wears them! There must be something about Ana-Lea's bare feet that makes every living being want to lick them...

katadude [link] Once known as DazandAnime, British artist katadude is in my opinion one of the giants of the tickling art community. Establishing a sizable fanbase for 4 years now, ol' Daz here has a very recognised art style which is noted for his drawing of huge feet that many contemporaries like myself have drawn in the past. His old art is sadly deleted, but is still producing classics under his current name.
	Double up on your pairs Initially, katadude had to decline the trade at first due to certain commitments outside art making when I asked him back in the autumn. However, things freed up by mid-December, and we thankfully agreed to do the trade. Giving him a choice of old and new characters, he chose classic characters Rosa and Bey foot tickled in the stocks, with Rosa getting her soles moistened with baby oil, and Bey having chocolate spread licked off her yummy soles by Daz himself. Bey's desperately trying to put off Daz from licking her bare feet, but to no avail. Daz finds them way too delicious to resist.
	The red and black attacks! Originally I was gonna draw his gothic white elf OC Ghost Helix tickled in my picture for him. But he'd decided to double up on Bey and Rosa, so therefore I asked him if he could draw me tickling Ghost instead. In addition, since he likes Bey so much, he can draw himself licking his favourite Mars chocolate spread (which isn't on sale, by the way) off her bare soles again. Bey's understantably nervous while Ghost is desperately holding it in. This picture is 25% the size of the original, so it'll be easier to view and load. You can find the original sized one on katadude's DeviantArt link above.

sp0rel0rd [link] A former lurker in the tickling community like C.A.B before him, newcomer sporelord made his debut in the autumn of 2010, and showed great promise in his first postings in the community with his nicely coloured artworks and unique ideas. He even got a seal of approval from C.A.B as well. Sporelord politely asked to trade with me for this 10 year commemorative series, and I happily agreed to do so.
	This is my 9 to 5 Sporelord made a suggestion that I should do a version of his "tickling dungeon", which was a trio of pictures that he first posted online. It featured boiler-suited tormentors in gas masks, and an unnamed ponytail-plaited girl who is their prisoner. My take on it is only upperbody-only picture I've up to this point, where the prisoner gets her armpits tickled on the upright plank. Another suggestion that Sporelord made is that I should be one of the workers in the dungeon, and here I am finishing my shift and taking off my mask... that's over my mask. Should be called Chimpy Two-Masks then...
	You have not suffered enough yet! Sporelord offered to do this trade, and for his half, sporelord wanted to draw my two characters Kitty Marie and Robi. Since Robi has been the longest-serving main female in the Chimp's adventures, she initiates the older, trendy newcomer Kitty Marie by tickling her feet in stocks and says she'll have to put up with this for many years to come. Thing is, Kitty Marie has some way to catch up with Robi in that aspect, since Robi herself has had some of the most unbearable tickle tortures on her feet and armpits in her tenure so far. I guess Kitty Marie will be in for a long session here...

kd8lmno [link] Another very popular British-based artist, kd8lmno has built up quite an established and very dedicated fanbase since 2005-2006. His characters are based in the fictional Pink Top City in the S.S.S storyline, with all of them having so many emotional and personal issues, they would keep Sigmund Freud busy if he were alive. His most well-known, breakout character has got to be Celeste Marcella.
	Spy vs. Spy: HOT DAMN Edition Celeste Marcella has been on my personal hitlist for a VERY long time. This spicy unique-looking Latina with Bruiser Bar hair caught my eye since her appearance in that Swimsuit Special in 2007 and only until this hootenanny did I manage to draw her. She's been billed as a spy in the recent S.S.S storyline and who better to pair her up with than my resident espionage character Madamé Elena Pedriania. While Celeste fancies herself as manipulative and cunning, she is no match for Elena's savvy and experience, and has her recently pedicured feet punished in the dungeon as a result.
	Girls on film! Girls on film! I wasn't sure if kd8lmno wanted to do a trade with me or not as he wasn't open to them at the time, but I really did want to draw Celeste as part of this hootenanny. I did e-mail him, and was good on my promise in the above picture, so it convinced him in the end. He was originally going to have Celeste and Elena Pedriania again for his half, but he settled with the Chimp tickling Celeste's feet himself, with her boobs busting out of that catsuit of hers. He went for an 80s theme with the background, channelling and referencing the Chimp's music band activity and Duran Duran. Sexy.

La Violetta [link] A long-time contributor and forum member to the TickleTheater forums, La Violetta has gone under names like Ninja Sammi and Bella Donna in the past to reflect on what kind of character she likes to be potrayed as at that point. Together with her flatmate The Inner Jamie, they are Antique Submarine, who are an artist and writing team covering different genres like sci-fi, fantasy and renaissance.
	This beat is too hot to handle While La Violetta (or Vi as many call her for short these days) is into having her feet tickled, she would much rather have the harder, more torturous stuff done to her big soles. When the idea for the trade was pitched as early as summer 2010, she suggested being in head and regular stocks, with both her feet beaten and roasted at the same time. I suggested this is something that my villains Scarlett Terra and Dr. Wolfgang Darang would do. And so, here's the end product, as well Darang berating the barefoot gypsy Vi as to why she of all people had to be eavesdropping on these two.
	A fiendish monster... and a floating blue head When it came to doing their side of their trade, Vi and Jamie would choose the beautiful Anglo-Asian Robi and their Romani character Brigita foot tickled in stocks. They themselves would be tickled by their floating blue monster head Podd, who can summon multiple floating appendeges at will (hands for example). He is being instructed by the Chimp of all people on how to effectively tickle the bare feet of any victim. Yes, the Chimp is the real monster here! If you want to read the backstory Jamie wrote for this, you can click this link which features said story and the picture/deviation itself.

Ribbotang [link] Debuting his art at the beginning of 2011 after some time lurking, Ribbotang is another British artist who has made a strong impression with his artwork, with his black-and-white line art style and drawing of feet very much resembling peperontino/kamikuzu of The Grey Collection fame, though how he draws faces and bodies in general is recognisably all his own. Definitely one to look out for.
	A right royal barrel o' Paddy's When Ribbotang was making himself known at the start of 2011, we agreed to do a trade. At the time however, I was about to start to start a new job and therefore had very little time to get things done. It wouldn't be until I lost that said job that I had the chance to finish it. Anyway, here's his OC Christie, who is a tall Irish girl with anime hair and big feet. So naturally, I'd have the Irish folk in my adventures, namely the gothic Shelee and superhero Chimp rival Goldenboy, tickle her size 11 feet while engaging in typical Oirish banter, complete with phonetic accents. Yup, they're a talkative bunch.
	All hung up against the Chimp 2 weeks after agreeing with the trade, Ribbotang completed his half. At the time, I had that job and a lot of my time was doing that and completing any outstanding pieces of work before it, so I didn't get round to finish my half until 6 months later. Apologies for that! As a way to make up for it, I coloured in his half of the trade, which features Dr. Darang's right-hand villainness Scarlett Terra in unique upside down bondage getting her big sweaty bare feet tickled by her boss's constant target, the Chimp. I gave it a cel-shaded style, simplfied compared to my more rendered style of art.

sl44n3sh [link] One of the longest-serving active members of this tickling art community, sl44n3sh is a German artist with an anime slant to his work. He has made a number of contributions to MTJ Publishing and as of late included a lot of nylon-clad feet in his artworks, which is amongst many of the fetishes he draws. His alternate DeviantArt account here covers stuff like plastercast, foot torture and pain, amongst others.
	No fair cop for the Mafia I put forward a suggestion to sl44n3sh that I wanted to draw his blonde Eurasian police officer OC Saya for this trade as well for another picture (yeah, the Second HARVEST). Agreeing he asked me to have her in nylons and a plastercast on one leg, I had her kidnapped interrogated by my villains the Solletico Mafia, who are reasoning with the German-Japanese heroine due to realising her track record and their criminal operations in Germany. They torture her exposed toes with candlewax while tickling her at the same time, threatening to dump her in the Rhine if she doesn't co-operate. She does.
	Unappreciated anticipation I remember an old fanart sl44n3sh did for me several years ago. It featured my old OC Rosa toe-tied and foot tickled, and it was really sexy. So for my suggestion to sl44n3sh was to have my two Filipino niece characters Eys and Chick featured in his half of the trade. Here, they have their feet in stocks, toes firmly tied with their stockings ripped off halfway, with both sisters struggling and worried about what's to come. Knowing sl44n3sh's subject matter, it ain't gonna feel good. Once again, this is another sexy piece by sl44n3sh, with Eys and Chick and their vunerable toes looking so cute.

fmilling [link] Also known as Bombers, fmilling is an artist who is inspired by revered artists like The Bandito and Dave "Ozzy" Alvarez. He is especially a fan of the latters' most iconic creation: Yenny. A long-time contributor to the tickling art community, his style combines both his chief inspirations and his own unique flavour, but he's most famous for his big-footed green-skinned alien babe: Podarian princess Teeva.
	Most unconvincing bureau ever Of course, when you do a trade with fmilling, you gotta draw Teeva here. While I always had the intention of having the Barefoot Feminists tickle Teeva's gargantuan feet, fmilling wanted to see her upside down, hanging from her ankles. For this, the Barefoot Feminists pose as some kind of alien research group in order to capture and interrogate their main target Teeva. Why? No reason other than tickle Teeva's famously large feet, and sure you can trust a research group that wears no shoes for their uniform. Teresa's trying to contain herself, and Francisca scolds her for her lack of subtlety.
	You must be this ticklish to ride I suggested to fmilling to draw Selis and Lauren tickled as he saw fit. While he admitted it took him a while to find a good situation, the one he came up with was a stroke (heh) of genius. The girls are at Euphoria Island: A theme park Teeva owns. Going onto a long and complex ride she personally designed, they were curious as to why their bare feet was secured in front of the car after removing their loose footwear, especially with the road of feathers ahead and close to their soles. Fear takes a back seat when they're taken for a ride to a speed of 120mph of constant tickling. Hmm, is that safe?

suikoden [link] A London-based artist who's near my neck of the woods, suikoden (named after a RPG video game) is mostly known for writing stories in the communities, but he's proven himself to be a very competent artist in his own right. He is most well-known for continuing the adventures of Samantha Storm in the Cloak and Feather series of stories from MTJ Publishing, in both visual and written forms.
	Miss Ramirez X-amines Rosa I've wanted to do a trade with suikoden for a while, and he has mentioned to me that he is a fan of old favourite Rosa. He also mentioned he had intentions to have her feature in a written story of his where she meets Miss Ramirez. He didn't get round to it, so I decided to draw it myself for this hootenanny. Lampshading the whole idea, Miss Ramirez (now with a shorter haircut) comments on how long she has waited to tickle Rosa's armpits while she's strapped to the X-frame. And yes, that little green tube top Rosa wears makes a welcome return, as does that little potty mouth of hers. Naughty girl...
	Poisonous Monkey weathers the Storm As you're probably aware, suikoden has little time to do art, but when he does produce something, it's always well worth the look. Most of those are accompanying pictures to the Cloak and Feather stories. Here, he managed to find some time in his busy schedule to finish his half of the trade with me. Here, the Chimp has Samantha Storm - the main protagonist of the Cloak and Feather stories - stripped down to her undergarments and her feet tickled in the stocks. I'm pretty sure Samantha Storm and Miss Ramirez will appear in my art again at some point soon. Yup, I've made it a plan.

Incomplete or non-trades

DaShadyAlien [link] A long-time contributor to the forums back when he was called skull108, Da Shady Alien (sometimes Alien Shade) is a Belgian artist of Flanders origin (like Scavenger and Eveline after him) who has drawn many anime and anthro characters tickled over the years. He is a firm but very fair critic of fellow artists, and his own art avatar is a red-headed, blue blob called Alien Shade, who appears often in his art.
	Taking their brains to a shady alien dimension As mentioned above, Alien Shade is essentially a blue blob with red hair (forgot to mention the glowing eyes and long, lizard-like tongue). He can also use that body to morph into any shape he wants to. That means he can turn his body into a restraining AND tickle torture device on his victims. Naturally, this would be the angle I went with, and the victims I chosen were the three Filipino nieces: Eys, Chick AND Lou. All three get their feet tickled while enraptured in his body. The very ticklish Eys gets special treatment by having her armpit licked as well. All going on in a psychedelic backdrop.
	For your consideration, dog food execs... I suggested that Mr. Alien Shade here should a favourite scenario of mine. Having a dog lick the soles of some poor beautiful girl. That girl in question here is classic character Rosa, who's feet are locked in stocks and all ten toes tied back. Knowing what she's like, she'd be cursing a blue streak during this ordeal. We agreed this should be an advert for dog food, and have a big slogan on it about how delicious it is with feet. But for some reason, ol' Shady Alien hasn't got round to finishing off the rendered colours, and hasn't completed any art for well over a year now. Come on, man!

Synful Pryde One of my oldest friends dating back since the Yahoo! Clubs/Groups era in 2001, Synful Pryde is the notoriously humble... no, downright self-critical artist who posted regularly between 2001-2004 and has made the odd appearance here and there. Initially having an anime-rooted style, Synful Pryde then switched a few years ago to a more Western cartoon style with exaggerated features using colour pencils.
	Fatone's interrogation is all in Vayne Synful Pryde's original character Alex Vayne has appeared in a few of my pictures over a number of years, and by and rights, she often gets tickled by the Chimp in Synful Pryde's fanart. As expected, her overall look has changed to go with the new style of his. For my side of the trade, I drew her in her current look, and while on a trip in Sicily, she bumps into the Solletico Mafia, who once again have their expected cargo of goods stolen and interrogate the person nearest to the scene, who was Alex. They then proceed to tickle the life out of her while in exceptionally tight bondage and stocks.
	Are you ready for your cross-examination, Rosa? I offered Synful Pryde to do a trade for this hootenanny, and he happily obliged, given how long we've been in this community. Obviously his most well-known character Alex Vayne will be in it, and because he's drawn some ace armpit tickle pictures in the past, she'll tickle Rosa while wearing that tube top of hers while tied to an X-frame. He sent me this progress sketch and I replied back saying Rosa's hair needs adjusting. However, this is all that remains of the trade, as he seems to have disappeared and has not replied back as of late 2010. I sure do hope he's OK and will return again...

FireFox Once an active member of the community, FireFox was known for his sketchwork which focused on mostly anthro characters of his creation, as well as numerous fanarts of other artists. He also called out nuisance "fans" in the community by counter-trolling them. However, he left the community out of nowhere (a second time), erasing his artwork and deactivating his DeviantArt account.

That fox should B.O.G.O.F (buy one get one free) I approached FireFox for this trade, and he wanted the two Indian girls who have appeared in my art over the years: Selis and Robi. Both are feisty, very pretty and have the best dress sense out of anyone in the Chimp's adventures over the past 10 years. Here, ol' Foxy himself indulges in the two pairs of ticklish feet while making a Indian-related "buy one get one free" pun. The trade he did for me was a pencil sketch showing me tickling the feet (or paws) of two of his anthro original characters, but I sadly forgot to save it before he deactivated and left the community... for now. Oops...

kahoshiden [link] One of my long time friends in the community, kahoshiden started out at around late 2001-early 2002. His anime-influenced work has its own spin and started out with colour pencils for his first few years before converting to CG colours. During the mid-2000's, myself, Cheshire Cat and Kahoshiden were the power trio of the tickling art community, often doing trades and gift art for each other back in the day.

Kaysie and Katsuima: Just like them old times I really wanted to do a trade with Kahoshiden for the 10 year hootenanny, but he has been stuck in the doldrums for ages and has not done any artwork in that time. In any case, I decided to do a tribute piece because of our past history as a trio with Cheshire Cat. Here, his tall catgirl OC Katsuima Terpskiday is hogtied, and is foot tickled by my first ever OC Kaysie; who debuted at the same time I started posting artwork in 2000. Thing is, Kaysie is donning her most recent look as opposed to her classic leather jacket and brunette hair, but hey this whole picture is an old school throwback.

Chaz The Weasel [link] A young artist who first entered DeviantArt as a 14 year-old under a different name, Chaz The Weasel (who debuted fetish material in 2006) is well respected for his art skills and his bevy of affable, good-hearted original characters with some deep backstory to them, like Kanasta, Liliana, Regina and his artist avatar. His style does have an anime flavour to it, but it has a very identifiable well-loved look.

The Barefoot Feminists' recruitment drive rolls in Much like kd8lmno's Celeste before her, I've always wanted to draw Kanasta because she ticks all the right boxes as to what type of woman I like. Tanned skin, dark hair, curvy, wears small tops, is constantly barefoot and is an absolute sweetheart. Here, Kanasta and her diminuitive albino mate (and in-story sister of Chaz) are captured by those nefarious Barefoot Feminists, who are recruiting to their rank via some persuasion. While they've worked over Kanasta real good, Liliana is still anticipating the worst. I think it's a guarantee that this won't be the last time Kanasta will appear in my art.

Panda Jenn [link] A long-time artist who first caught my attention back in autumn of 2003 when she sent me a fanart, Panda Jenn is a California-based artist who ran a personal comic, and over the years has switched her art to different styles to match what type of programme or media she's into, whether it's Digimon-inspired anime, TMNT and Clerks-influenced Western art, or her more common anthro artwork.

Our personal lock-in The fanart piece Jenn sent to me in 2003 had her tied to a bed with the Chimp tickling her feet, and this was during her Digimon art phase. In many ways, this picture is sort of become a full circle thing, as I haven't drawn her foot tickled before due to her preferring to have her bellybutton tickled. Anyway, the Chimp has put Jenn in a figure four leglock (probably the best wrestling hold for a foot tickle) and strokes that sensitive sole of hers while making a pun or two. Jenn told me not to post this on DeviantArt as her material is all vanilla now, so I kept it here exclusively on this page.
