Presenting: the Beautiful Beasts imprint, a series of erotic horror, science fiction and fantasy novellas by author Joachim Heijndermans. Each a self contained story of lust with monsters ranging from the fantastical, the macabre and the eldritch.
Books 1, 2 and 3 are out now!
Art Man Carot

Cover to return the rose, the first Beautiful Beasts book. Colored in monochrome purple, a large beast with a lion-like face and stag antlers embraces a partially undressed woman with long flowing hair. She clutches onto his antlers, wistfully looking at her lover, the beast.

Cover to Cove of the Fisherman's wife. Colored in monochrome blue, a Japanese woman looks upon the encroaching octopus arms. Her yukata is partially removed, as a lone tear runs down her cheek.

Cover to Beautiful Beasts 3, The Nightstalker’s Mark, by Joahim Heijndermans. Two women coated in a red colored hue hold each other in embrace, looking at one another. One a short haired blind woman with a tank top. The other is a vampiric creature who is nude, her ears pointed and the pupils in her eyes are narrow slits like those of a serpent. Her open mouth reveals a set of fangs, her intent implied to be nefarious.
The title of the book is colored with a yellow gradient, with the ‘M’ in Mark similar to a set of fangs. Small dots of Braille writing repeat the title, a reference to the one woman’s blindness.

Years ago, my wife was in a theather and the trailer for Tron Legacy was in it, and young people went "the hell is Tron?"

We were in the movies a but ago, and the trailer for this one played, and young people went "the hell is Tron?"

I imagine tron 4 will get the same reaction 20 years from now.

I haven't seen the film, but what Ive gathered is they have the Tron people enter the real world. But taking the fantastical and sending it to the real world always feel so...cheap and uninspired.

Its a very expensive Beastmaster 2...

In the novel, one of them is. She learned by a lot of trial and error.

Love the black and white one! Like the implied motion!

Thanks for the boost. I'm still recovering from a busy week and some personal stuff, but I AM making headway on some monster writing.
That said, at some point I wanna draw more. So until then, some oldies.

A bare breasted woman is bent over with a creature behind her. She says she's ready, then is startled when the creature penetrates her from behind. She then groans in delight, muttering oh fuuuuuuuhhhhccckkk

A woman is penetrated be a bizarre alien being with a mouth on one tentacle, an eye on another, speaking in client words. Her words are muffled by the slithering tentacle inside her mouth.

British guy nearly eating himself to death on cola gummies now has me with a hankering for cola gummies.
Thank God they haven't made those without gelatin yet, because I too am tempted....

No kidding...

My dutch ass nearly met its end several times thinking I could just bike anywhere as well as taking the car.

I actually managed just fine distance wise. It was car drivers who were determined to kill me...including a teacher of mine.

Not to be mean...but that looks like one of those gift games that people will be polite about recieving, then chuck into a closet to collect dust and then donate to a charity in lieu of money.
