The Difficult and Challenging Story Behind Shadow Hill 2 (Making it work)
Yesterday I had this interesting thought that kept coming up in my mind about Erotic Lesbian stories when I was brainstorming for Shadow Hill 2 and how I wanted the first graphic novel to play out. It was like theater, a performance you never seen coming. So I ended up having a hard time deciding what approaches I would make directly the day I get to finally work on the series. I talk about my projects all the time with people that care about them.
What happened was, I was sitting here in the dark while it was raining outside for some reason I couldn't stop peeping out the window trying to figure out ideas. That's when I sat back down, and figured there had to be something to help me get going.
After
an hour had passed I went through the internet and started gathering up
as many art images to inspire me, most of them were Victorian, Romance,
and Renaissance art period themes of a time long past. I got to
thinking about all the interesting erotic things I could do with a story
that takes place between the time periods of the late 1970s and the mid 1980s
because I wanted the time frame to began sometime during the creation of
The Orders second generation. At least for the first story since it's going to be a series of graphic novels.
The original Order was founded and
established in the 17th century (just like in Silent Hill), the culture
and the way the people live hasn't changed much since then but there are
a new set of polices and structures that can make life incredibly
difficult for any unprepared outsider. I'm talking about being punished for wearing the wrong set of attire in the wrong part of town that has a dress code policy in place. The people of Shadow Hill are very conservative in their sense of style. So provocative wear can easily get you beaten and humiliated out in public in front of a live audience!
One of the best Dark Erotic Stories told about Nuns, was written by Ricardo Barreiro and drawn by an artist named Ignacio Noé who surprisingly does art for children despite having a background in Erotic Pornographic drawings.
Anyway I wanted to do a story about a Sisterhood that divides into two factions..One is formed by Witches after a rebellion takes place within the Bloodline Order. Another story I had in mind which involves Little Ginger Riding Hood (Similar to Red Riding Hood), she lives with her cruel grandmother and her grandmothers two best friends Agnes and Ursula.
Every
story within Shadow Hill's universe is different, but I still want it
to feel like something out of Silent Hill's world by introducing
monstrous creatures, fog that surrounds certain parts of the town, odd
and interesting townsfolk you just can't really trust with unique
personalities including bringing in characters from Silent Hill's
universe. I was considering writing out a list of those chosen
characters, but I'm still not quite sure yet about that.
I think the challenge is figuring out a way to make this project work and doing a better job with it quality wise. What we do know so far is that it's going to be one of the most expensive projects because of the number of environments that need building. This isn't some average "sex" story we're expecting here.
There is a huge cost toward funding structures that truly fit a Gothic town of ultimate terror including the cost of developing the characters..resources aren't cheap to come by..Then there is that situation where I have to seek out custom developed resources...Some vendors may be feasible than others depending on who you ask. This is really important for many of my future works, presentation is a big part of what I do.
Ever since I began
working on my very own Women in prison series, people started buying the
books and it gave me all this confidence that if one series could do
well, the next one could do even better. So I spoke to my brother and I
told him "if the women in prison series is doing so well, I cannot wait
to see the audiences reaction when I complete Shadow Hill 2. It's going
to be a blast creating it due to the sheer amount of extreme ideas I
have in mind for it. As long as I don't have to deal with censorship or
a whole lot of backlash if the project end up on some none tolerant website. This can go incredibly well for those with thick skin.
Female
monstrosities with male genitalia are rather rare in the horror content
department...A sad time really. I hope to be the one to change all of
this. I don't know of any other artist that would put a whole lot of thought processing behind something of this nature. It could be that to them, it's just porn. To me it's my legacy, and to have something to be remembered by someday even if I'm not as known as I want to be right now. I have close to 10,000 supporters but I still feel like it isn't enough.
I have been known to do a lot of
projects in the past I gave up on whenever I didn't have the resources.
But now I have this newfound level of confidence in myself that when
I've seen the work of other artist, who I can go to and have commission
work done. I already have one in mind I plan to have draw up some
premier work that will get people more interested, or as they say it
"hyping it up."
People these days take a lot of things too seriously unfortunately, and find most ideas questionable that they don't really understand. But that's perfectly fine with me, because it's all just works of fiction anyway. I have always wanted a story about religious groups with dark secrets that go on behind closed doors. Stories and themes that revolve around abductions, corruption, and ruthless sexual behavior and the sort of things people are afraid to discuss.
These interesting situations can make for a rather unique
story telling experience when there is freedom to go as far as you can take the
content. This is part of the reason why we need to put an end to SJW Culture, and shitty Virtue Signaling has got to go as well. Nobody in this world benefits from being coddled and overprotected just because they don't want to be offended, NOBODY..Especially not children...And I pray kids today don't end up like the adults from my generation...GOD forbid that they don't....
At times I
felt rather wrong about the way I was going about doing some of my projects...Ever so
often I may take Satanic symbols and include them into my work just for
horror reasons, and nothing beyond that. I do believe that
some evil aspects of religion make these kind of stories more
fascinating though. Silent Hill itself fornicates with the wicked side
of religion. The Order is almost satanic like but they never claimed them to be Satanist.
Murder however is something I've always had a harder time grasping in fiction excluding the R.L Stine Teen Thrillers I read as a kid and in my early teens...For some reason the murder in those stories weren't that extreme or as graphic as Mr. Stine tried to make them out to be when he was competing up against Teen Slashers which were all the rage in the 80s and 90s.
I did have a conversation about how Shadow Hill 2 involves sex with dark forces, but I wasn't so certain I wanted those forces to be Demons although when you think hard enough about this. The monsters in Silent Hill are demons or they look like something that would appear in hell.
That is why it's not unusual to have demonic forces present when Silent Hill borrows a lot of its elements from the Christian faith and Satanism whether they admit to this or not. A very big part of me can relate to Silent Hill, the human struggle. I'm working on something that's a lot different than what the people of Silent Hill have experienced and went through.I want to explore themes in a way that no one else has ever done before, to make the most of it I did more than enough research. Shadow Hill 2 is expected to be something that anyone with an appetite for Women who live secret lives can immerse themselves into. A true Dark Erotic Lesbian experience. There have always been things about Nuns and women that identify as sisters that appeal to me, not only that the incestuous nature behind women who form forbidden bonds among one another is something that has fascinated me for quite some time.
I recall reading a story about Nuns who engage in
lesbianism acts, and all sorts of other things religious people would
consider ungodly and a sin. I can't exactly say that I blame Nuns for
this, people just can't help what they are attracted to and I think a story about a woman who struggles with these things is exciting for me to do in an Erotica sense. That's one of the things I'd like to
explore in Shadow Hill. It's kind of strange..
