Achilles

First Birthday!

I made this back in 2008 when my old website had been up for a year, and it's perfect for this coming week as well! I'm coming up on my 52nd update so it's been roughly a year (I missed a week here and there) that I've been back making tickle art. Also, I've got more than 100 images on my these sites because I've been uploading old work along with the new! 

This animated gif featured characters I'd already drawn tickling a poor man trapped in a birthday cake. There's the Cosquillas...

Team Footress: Enemies 2

What? TWO sheer sock pieces in one week? Well, last week I posted my first "Team Footress: Enemies" piece from 2009, so I thought I'd follow it up with the second one. The Spy was always sabotaging the devices of the Mechanic in the game, so I thought it was only fair that he got punished for it. The Spy just seemed like the type who would wear thin dress socks and the Mechanic delights in just how ticklish they make his helpless feet. Fun fact: if you put this next to last week's piece, they...

Make Soprano Sing

A buddy of mine told me his ultimate tickle fantasy was James Gandolfini. I was totally on board with that, especially after perusing his wikifeet page and being reminded of just how hot his feet were. Since his most famous character was a mafia boss, I had to do a special interrogation scene I call "Make Soprano Sing". I also had to make my sheer sock fans happy and do a second version. Of COURSE an Italian mafia guy would wear sheers. Hope you enjoy Tony's torment!

Holy Ticklish Tights, Batman!

It was pointed out to me that if you pulled off Batman and Robin's boots, their tights would probably go all the way to their feet. I did a special version of the drawing for those sheer fans out there, covering their feet with the sheer tights material. It's been added to the original post. Enjoy!

Team Footress: Enemies 1

I was playing a lot of Team Fortress 2 back in 2009. I really loved the design of the characters and thought it would be fun to do some tickle drawings with members of the opposite teams who were natural enemies tickling each other. In "Team Footress: Enemies 1", the Heavy has overpowered the Scout and is tickling his hogtied bare feet as punishment for being such an annoying, quick nuisance. I've always loved big guy vs little guy scenarios so this one was a lot of fun. Hope you enjoy it! 2022-03-15 03:01:28 +0000 UTC View Post

Dynamically Ticklish Duo

Well here it is, folks: the 50th update! Sorry for the delay, but this was a complicated one. Three likenesses, complex costumes and foreshortening. This is also a drawing I have wanted to do for a long time. This is an illustration of an actual abandoned concept from an episode of the Batman television show!

If you do a Google search for "Batman Funny Feline Felonies script" you can find the entire first draft and final pages online, but I've posted the relevant bit here. This would h...

50th Update!

Hey gang! The next update will be my 50th since restarting AchillesHeelArt! It's hard to believe I've been at this for 50 weeks already. For the 50th piece, I'm doing something special, so I'm going to need a bit of extra time for it. It should be coming late on Sunday, but could possibly be pushed to Monday depending on how long the coloring takes. Oh, and the gif is a hint. ;) Stay tuned!

The Yogi's Training

Who doesn't love magic feathers? I really love shots of guys doing yoga where their bare soles are exposed, and that was the genesis of this piece: a particularly sexy guy in a yoga pose. I always wondered how much more challenging holding a pose would be if the man was being delicately stroked by feathers. Hope you enjoy this look back at "The Yogi's Training" from 2009!

Mr Ticklish

Of all the famous cartoon ticklers out there, who deserves revenge more than Mr. Tickle himself? He tickles EVERYBODY, so I thought it was appropriate that the other Mr. Men characters finally had enough and ganged up on him for some tickle payback. I had to call this one "Mr. Ticklish". I think somebody needs a tiiiiickle...!

Confessions of a Teenage Sidekick

UPDATE INTERLUDE: I can't believe I forgot to post this on Valentine's Day! "Confessions of a Teenage Sidekick" was one of the quarterly-changing home page cover images on my old website. This was my take on two characters created by the artist "Mr Zikkon" on my site: Major Power and Private Thawtz. Zikkon made a whole tickle comic FEETuring the adventures of these two, which involved a lot of superhero tickling. Zikkon's work won't be reposted here, but is still available in the full archive...

Sheer Torture

In this throwback piece from 2009, an estranged wife hires a gang of thugs to convince her husband to sign divorce papers through a rather unorthodox method: by tickling his big, sensitive sheer socked feet until he gives in! I think this was one of my better sheer sock drawings from my old site. I know several of my sock guys have told me it's one of their faves. Enjoy "Sheer Torture"!

Box of Shame: Bert Kreischer

I'm ahead of schedule for once! I finished poor Bert Kreischer's visit to the dreaded Box of Shame a bit early. Bert makes a living making people laugh and he also delights in teasing guys with a foot fetish by wiggling his bare soles and toes in many of his on-screen interviews. We all know what happens to shameless foot teases...they get tickled! I decided to do a version where Bert's tickled to tears by a sonic toothbrush and fingers as well as one where he's mercilessly teased with feathe...

Bert Deserves It

I decided to not have a poll to decide who will be latest victim to be locked into the Box of Shame and instead I chose a guy who I've wanted to see tickled for a long time. Bert Kreischer is a notorious foot tease who shows off his big soles whenever he gets the opportunity. He's admitted to having a foot fetish himself, so he knows exactly what he's doing. And then, while looking up reference material on him, I stumbled on something he tweeted a long time ago. He's a tickler! So he definite...

Plaything of the Giants

My first macrophilia piece was so well received back in 2007 that I did a second one in 2009 that I called "Plaything of the Giants". There is something very sexy about a huge size different between tickler and victim. I also love drawing ticklers with over-the-top evil expressions on their faces. Will anyone rescue this poor, ticklish tiny man from these massive fiends?

Boba Fettish

He's alive...and in ticklish hibernation! I've had this idea on the back burner in my brain for a LONG time, and it all started with the title: "Boba Fettish". I knew I wanted Boba tickling Han, but I had to come up with the perfect scenario. Then it hit me...what if Han was encased in carbonite, but had his helpless feet sticking out? This was a tricky one to pull off, perspective-wise. Also, Boba's costume was a challenge but I wanted to get it just right since I am a life-long Star Wars fa...

This Week's Update

This week's update may be late on Sunday, folks. This one will be near and dear to my heart and it involves drawing a very complex costume. Here's a little hint. Stay tuned!

Matt & Cat

Here's an older celebrity piece from 2009 in which my pal CatInHat from MyFriendsFeet gets poor Matthew McConaughey buried on a Florida beach with his ticklish bare feet exposed. There are plenty of seagull feathers for everyone to use to take a turn punishing Matt for driving us all crazy with his barefoot beach workouts. I called this one "Matt & Cat" and hope you enjoy this look back at it!

The Sultan's Captive

Here's my overcompensation for last week's piece: "The Sultan's Captive". A poor, ticklish hunky soldier is tickled by Arabian prison guards while he awaits his audience with the Middle Eastern ruler. The tickling will continue as long as it amuses the cruel guards. I decided to make a regular version and an extra naughty version and post both. You can decide which one is your favorite. Hope you enjoy it!

Update Preview

Hey gang! The update will be coming on Saturday this week, most likely in the evening. I'm going out of my way to make this one extra hunky and sexy to compensate for last week. A ripped American solider finds himself tormented by muscular, Middle-Eastern guards in "The Sultan's Captive". Stay tuned!

Foot of the Bed

UPDATE INTERLUDE: If you listened to my recent podcast interview with Off the Cuffs (see a few posts back), you heard me talk about some of the earliest drawings I ever did, made with a ball point pen. This is one of those drawings, done at the request of a pen pal of mine who wanted to see some playful tickling between a couple. When I decided to get back into doing tickling art much later, I took those older drawings, scanned them in, cleaned them up and colored them. I titled this one "Foo...

Muscles vs Skinny

I am lover of contrasts: older tickling younger, hairy tickling smooth, etc. So I drew "Muscles vs Skinny" back in 2009, an image of two huge bodybuilders ganging up on a skinny weakling and tickling him for fun. There's something hot about the idea of bullies using tickling as a way to assert dominance, especially when they're strong enough to simply overpower them in other ways. Hope you enjoy this older piece!

Danny DeFeeto

This one will be divisive (I know at least one member is gonna HATE it). After I did the podcast with the fine folks at Off the Cuffs, I got this idea in my head and just had to draw it. At one point in the interview the subject of weird requests came up and Minimus Maximus asked me if anyone had requested a drawing of anyone unusual and not attractive like, Danny DeVito. Dick Wound took umbrage with that, since he's a big DeVito fan and there was actually more discussion about him that got e...

I Got Podcasted!

I sat down with the awesome folks at the Off the Cuffs podcast to talk about my tickle fetish art and what it’s like to run a site with tickling content! it was a lot of fun and they asked some great questions!

The Ecstasy Machine

There's nothing like a muscular man helplessly bound in some mysterious futuristic lair, being feather tickled and milked for hours and hours...This was one of my more ambitious and sexy early animated gifs, with tickling happening in 3 places on this hunk's body, plus a Venus-style milking machine extracting load after load. Hope you enjoy this look back at "The Ecstasy Machine"

Q-Forced to Laugh

So a new buddy of mine made me aware of the show "Q-Force" which I had never seen before. He has a crush on the straight character Rick Buck, who is cocky asshole who generally disparages the rest of the team. There was a scene just crying out for tickling in which Buck is trapped in a decontamination chamber for 24 hours. I took a little creative license with the scenario in a piece I had to call "Q-Force(d) to Laugh". Hope you enjoy seeing Buck get what he so richly deserves! (EDIT: Buck wa...

Saturday Update

Update will be on Saturday evening this week, folks. Real-life work intruded on my schedule over the past couple of days. My next piece is a special one for a new buddy of mine. I don't want to FORCE the issue, but I think you'll all like it. Stay tuned!�

Guest Artist: Redfort

My pal Redfort was so pleased with the drawing I did of him that he asked if I had any special tickling art request. I love the old tickling trope of a muscular, powerful man trying to hold something heavy over his head while someone teasingly tickles his armpits, trying to make him drop it. He drew me this incredible piece of a circus strongman being harassed by a gang of evil tickling clowns. I love it so much.

Redfort sells his art on shirts on both Redbubble and Teepublic! You sho...

I Can't Bear It!

I fully admit it, I'm a hopeless bear chaser. I think it's the old "opposites attract" thing. I'm 51, have about 5 chest hairs and still can't grow anything even close to resembling a beard. So of course, bear-on-bear tickle action is always fun for me to do draw. When this poor guy got into the sling at the leather club, little did he know he'd be set upon by a pack of hairy ticklers. All he can do is shout "I Can't Bear It!" Hope this piece from 2009 gives you the warm fuzzies.

The Tickle Monster

Back when I did my first goo-based tickle monster after my relaunch, someone told me they preferred the idea of a friendly, happy tickle monster over a more monstrous, sinister one. I found myself wondering what a happy tickle monster would look like. Also, visually I wondered what it would be like to have a realistic victim vs an over-the-top cartoonish tickler. This chubby, gooey fellow just wants to make people happy. He finds someone who needs a laugh, envelops their body like a firm, war...

Tomorrow's Update

Update is coming tomorrow, folks! I'm having a little bit of trouble with the coloring on this one. I need some time to work it out tomorrow morning. I can sum up the subject of this week's update in two words: TICKLE MONSTER! Stay tuned!
