SPARROW: Member's Release (Patreon)
Content
SPARROW is live.
I want you to know what you are walking into before you press play.
This is not CHASE. This is not HOT IN SO CAL. This is not even TRAIN. This is my work, trying to advance both my skills and the art as a medium. This is a big step forward in working with a medium that wants to put gym bodies and hard manhoods onto straight men. In AI there is currently no room for m/m or c*cks that aren't seeking a hole. The geniuses in the computer cities do not think we need that. But we do.
This is 400 BCE Greece, drawn as a graphite and conte study: high-contrast monochrome, chiaroscuro, museum-quality pencil work, almost no colour except the eyes. A wrapped warrior on the edge of physical failure. A young man who is no longer quite a boy. A wooden bird left on a table for the morning to find. It is somber. It is also the most quietly uplifting thing I have made, because the ending does not steal anyone. It gives something back.
This was a very expensive video to render because of the insistence on one state of c*ck, so each clip that might have taken five to eight renders took double or triple that (at least) to get it correct, even with my new style of prompting. I hope AI soon gets over that, but I doubt it will. Still, the expense shows in the beauty I am proud of.
This is not a movie you watch with one hand and a tissue; you watch with your heart and a tissue. Those seeking a hot 17 minute bash-fest should rewatch something else this week, but I would be honored for you to watch what I have created here.
There is no chase in this one. There is a decision. Watch it once without looking away. Then let me know what you think about how far we could go if people did not fear AI art.

Thank you for being on this side of the paywall. The full film is yours this morning.
I want to take the time to thank my greatest malaka, an American named Blake, for his help with writing the story and the translation of things I wanted to say. He has helped so generously with this page all year, and he deserves to be recognized although he will say it was not necessary to mention him here. He is a malaka in every sense of the word.
