hi everyone,

it looks like Christine has discovered that not only is she gonna get a good, sound spanking but also she's expected to "learn something" from having her bare bottom spanked :? . she had better think quickly :lol: . i hope you enjoy it. phil

She should at least learn that being smacked hard several times on the bare behind can be a real pain in the ass.

Another great entry in a wonderful story! Now she's going to have to face up to the thing she did wrong, and promise to be honest with him from now on? Seems fair.

Nice angle for your new panel, Phil. Here, you show us the spankee from the front, with her legs in the rear of the picture (and almost obscured by her relatively large bottom :D ) I don't believe you've ever shown us one of your drawings in this way... or maybe I'm just getting forgetful. Wouldn't be the first time. Anyway, nice pic.

I'm glad you worked out the problem with Chris' teeth. Here, they are shown as realistically as possible, as she cries openly and pleads for him to stop spanking her. The tears are a nice touch, too. Her eyes are as sad as they can get, and although she cannot possibly worry about it for now, her hair is askew and not neatly casual, as in the first picture.

If I had any problem at all with this panel, it would be that you have rotated the couple a little too far to the left (our left). As a result, we cannot easily see that his large right hand is landing on her oh so deserving fanny. We can make out only the tip of his thumb, and a tiny sliver of his right forefinger... things that a casual observer might miss. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that the position of his hand is incongruous with his position in this picture. I'm only observing that, if they were rotated a bit more to the right (our right), we could see his right hand more clearly.

But I salute you, for trying a new position. As I've already said, you might have used this angle before, but I don't remember it.

Anyway, good show.

Cheers,
Dan

Like Dan, I don't remember seeing you use this angle before, Phil, so nice going. I do like to see the spankee's facial reactions to her predicament. Obviously, her husband expects Christine to think through the reason why she's being spanked, to display appropriate contrition for her action, and to promise to do better in the future, and she'd better figure all this out quickly if she wants to sit down again! I can't wait to see how she reacts next.

hi Dan,

i couldn't say for sure if i ever had exactly this angle before or not. i do routinely show front veiws but i usually just look and see what looks good to me as far as showing her face with the curves of her bottom in the background. anyway, i'm glad you enjoyed the view :D .

i've been working on different ways of getting the open mouths to look right and i still feel a little tentative about it but i am trying to do the best i can so it's nice to know i got this one right at least :D . i'm glad you mentioned the tears. i was attempting to show that moment when she starts to break down and tears start to form. i also figured that her hair might be a little messed up what with all the struggling ;) .

i too noticed this after i rendered the pic but decided i liked the angle anyway and figured it wasn't too serious a problem. there will no doubt be plenty of hand landing pics in future pics or toons. i'm glad you mentioned this though since i had the same thoughts. it kind of makes me feel like i'm getting better at noticing such things. glad you enjoyed the pic. thanks, phil

hi web-ed,

i too like to see the facial expressions in pretty much every pic, even the ones shot from behind but in this particular case i wanted to showcase that expression. Dan may have been right about seeing more of his hand because the idea i was trying to convey was her emotions and expression as that hand landed. in any case, i'm glad you enjoyed this view :D . as far as Christine's next reaction goes, i would think it would be something on the order of panic as she tries to do the quick thinking you mentioned :lol: thanks for the comments. phil

hi everyone,

it's interesting. of all that veritable flood of emotions and sensations that was besetting Christine earlier, there seems to be only one left on her mind...........her bottom. it makes me wonder if they're gone for good or if some of them will return later. her bottom is starting to sting a lot and she'd "really" like to find the magic words to get Kevin to stop. unfortunately Kevin isn't buying it just yet. not only does he want her to learn something from this spanking but also he actually wants her to be sincere about it. i think he wants her to reach "another level" before he stops. i hope you enjoy it. phil

Her body language shows that she's really feeling the sting now (heh heh :twisted: )! Yes, I'm sure that every other thought has been driven from her mind, and if Kevin has the good sense to keep it up, she'll soon be in a much more compliant mood. What is needed here is a complete breaking down of her stubborn resistance, and fortunately Kevin recognizes that fact.

It seems to me, Phil, that what has distinguished Another Level at least up to this point from your previous work is not so much any technical drawing considerations as the emphasis on the psychological aspect of spanking from the woman's point of view - the overcoming of her resistance, as mentioned above, is now the focus of the story. I think this is breaking new ground at least for this type of graphic narrative; the only artist I can think of who has done anything like it up until now has been Dan, with works like Sam Swatt and Captain Woodshed, where the bad girl's spanking is continued until she sincerely repents of her ways. The difference between those cartoons and Another Level is that here the dominant/submissive dynamic is taking place between two lovers rather than between good guy and bad girl.

So here's hoping Christine has the good sense to submit soon and spare herself more pain than necessary, although it won't exactly break by heart if it takes a little more spanking to help her reach that point :D .

hi web-ed,

good observations and i think Kevin has known what was needed for some time but has been hesitant about getting to it. it's not an easy thing to achieve, especially the first time but once done, it will make things better for both of them.

right again and it has been my focus in doing this story right from the outset. the flood of emotions that accompanies this sort of spanking is what makes it so powerful for both spanker and spankee. Kevin must take Christine to a point where she is intensely submissive for this to have the intended effect.

i was surprised at this comment because i hadn't thought about it breaking new ground . i think i kind of like the idea though :D . i also liked your comparison between this toon and Sam Swatt and Captain Woodshed. Kevin's dominance and Christine's submission has not only emotional but also sexual components because they are married and once he guides Christine to where she needs to be their marriage should be a more loving one. that's not normally a part of the good guy/bad girl scenario although i do seem to remember one of Dan's toons where the spankee is having warm, loving feelings about her spanker after the spanking is over :lol:

This is a delightful story! It looks like Christine is learning a valuable lesson... and Kevin is a willing teacher.

hi everyone,

it looks like words and sentences are beginning to fail Christine as she struggles to tell Kevin what he wants to hear and wouldn't you know it, he still wants more :lol: . i wonder if she can convince him she's learned her lesson before her composure is completely gone. i hope you enjoy it. phil

I enjoyed the latest instalment of your story. Christine's backside is getting redder by the minute, and she's desperate to tell Kevin what he wants to hear! Until now, my favorite thing you did was Backside Story, (And I'm still hoping that sometime you'll do a sequel with Tommy and Tammy) but now, my new favorite is Another Level!

You've given Christine a very nice, round bottom that would make a tempting target for any man to want to spank... and, besides that, she's done something naughty. We only have vague hints alluding to the exact nature of her transgression... but it seems to have been something she that did behind her husband's back, after they had agreed to do something else... and now she's feeling the consequences of her deceptive behavior. :oops:

You're really good at stories that revolve around a loving couple.

hi Boom,

i'm glad you're enjoying the toon :D Christine is indeed getting pretty frantic along about now ;)

Whatever she did behind his bank must surely by now been avenged by what he is doing below her back!

Hiya Phil...

Since we are chiming in with our choices for the best Overbarrel story, I thought I would name my own favorite: The unbeatable "One Good Turn."

There is just something so McLintock-ish about that one. Two beautiful females get spanked over a man's knee, a daughter and later her mother. I don't pretend to understand the carnal instincts that respond to such a display, but they are mighty strong.

In "One Good Turn," my erotic genes shift into overdrive when the two girls -- first Jennifer, and later her mom Sara Ann -- get put over Harley's knee and they each get a solid, unflinchingly sound spanking -- IN PUBLIC! -- on their delicious rumps with their dresses pulled up! Jennifer actually receives a sound spanking on the seat of her panties before Harley decides to pull those panties down and deliver a second spanking right on her fleshy globes! Then her mom, Sara Ann, enters the scene and is similarly put over Harley's knee and receives another wicked spanking, this time with the ping-pong paddle, on her naked nates.

Normally, the over-the-knee position excites me because it suggests an illicit closeness of the two parties' genitals. That suggestion won't work here, since Harley is father to one girl and grandfather to another. But the position excites me nevertheless. Maybe there is a secret gene working in my subconscious. Anyway, I thought then -- and I still think -- that "One Good Turn" is the best full spanking story any artist has ever created.

My apologies to b00m, Dave Wolfe, endart, and even to my alter ego Dan Rivera, who has turned out a few spanking stories himself. But Phil "overbarrel's" excellent "One Good Turn" remains, in my humble opinion, the new gold standard of spanking stories.

Cheers,
Dan
