In The Ring

photos, , ,

Something very quick today as I am writing my next book. Here is an image of Kevin Von Erich spanking Sunshine from many years ago. If you ever want to watch an interesting documentary, do a search on YouTube for “The Von Erich family.”

There were six Von Erich brothers, though one of them died as a child in a freak accident. Kevin was the second born son, and then there were 4 other brothers born after that. The third born son died while on tour as a wrestler in Japan, aged 25. His three remaining brothers all took their own lives over a 6 year period.

Before I moved to America, the Von Erich wrestling promotion was one of the very first wrestling shows shown on British cable during it’s initial years. My hometown was the first place in Britain to get cable. So I was a big fan of WCCW wrestling and the Von Erich family. The promotion was also the home of Gentleman Chris Adams, who was the brother of the great British judo star, Neil Adams.

Anyway, from a human standpoint; not necessarily from a wrestling one, it is a very good story to listen to.

A 13 Year Hold

Today I clicked on the properties of this image, and it has been sat on my hard drive for 13 years already. Obviously I have no idea where I found it, but this is apparently Ricardo Montalban (from Fantasy Island) spanking some lass at a party. That is how I have the spanking pic labelled anyway. It might not be him, but that is what it said whenever I found it, and Google Gemini confirmed it without any prompting.

What In The World

Part of the fun of working with AI is the ability to find your own personal favorites, and then give them a makeover. My re-worked image today is one such item.

Before we get to that, my DEVIANTART GENERATION TODAY is an old OTK favorite from this website, and it is an image that I personally own having paid $20 for it. The cartooned version of Al Siegel spanking Connie Russell.

To start with, today’s effort was the first piece of mainstream spanking art that I have been trying to create that was rejected. It wasn’t rejected for the spanking, it was rejected because the actor in the image, Bill Owen, is a household name. If you are from America, or do not know so otherwise, Owen played a TV character for years where virtually everyone in the UK knew who he was.

The funny part, though, after the AI chat had explained the whys and wherefores, it followed up by telling me what I should have done to avoid the censor, lol. So I took its advice, and I applied their suggestion on a different account, and this time it worked.

It gave me great pleasure to give a makeover to the lobby card spanking featured in “The Girl Who Couldn’t Quite.” The results of this effort can be seen below, and I think that a stellar job was done.

Hang on, though, this is AI, surely it isn’t prone to mistakes, is it? While I thought that the creation looked wonderful, there is one glaring error in this color rendition of that old lobby card. Can you see what that error is? I bet you a dime to a dollar that you will spot it quickly. Like always, click on the image itself for the full-sized version.

Did you spot it? Did you notice that old Bill seems to be missing something? The AI asked me if I wanted to work to fix it, but I decided no, I’m not going to fix it. In fact, the color really enhances it, eh? I’m pretty sure that you have noticed what’s missing already.

Now then, now that you can see that old Bill is missing something, let me share the original image once more that I have shared on here before. Before I do so, though, let me ask you a question. In the black and white version of this lobby card, did you ever notice before that the item we are missing above, was never there to begin with. Be honest, have you spotted the error previously?

Once I completed the task, and I said to the AI that I had never noticed it before, the AI then shared some of the old movie tricks and tips. It surmised that it was probably a problem area, and the editor said “just get rid of it, nobody is going to notice anyway.”

The color really highlighted what is obvious, once you realize that something is missing. So what do you think guys, do you like today’s effort?

Pics Are Improving

photos, , , , , ,

Today I was looking for an image to post and I dove into my newspaper clippings folder. The original of this image, which is at the very bottom of this post, was decent, but it was kind of small. So, you know me, I ran it through an AI image enhancer to see if it could improve the pic any.

I think it did a pretty good job, and it also made the picture much larger. Click on the image itself for the full-sized version.

And for transparency, here is the original for you to compare.

Are AI Enhanced Images Any Good?

photos, , , , , , , , , , ,

As you would have noticed on this blog, I will occasionally dabble with AI enhanced pics. A lot of what I find and discover on the Internet is in dreadfully poor shape, but I tend to save even the worst pictures. My premise always being the following. The pictures may look like shit, but someone, somewhere, might well find some historical appreciation of the images.

So let me share with you what I have learned so far. If you have a stunningly good vintage spanking pic, then you might well be able to produce a very good AI enhanced copy of it. Take for example one of the best spanking finds I have made, and brought to the community.

This is the spanking scene in the stage play, “Roger the Sixth.” It was assumed to be a lost pic until I paid a mint to join a British newspaper site where I found the image. As you can see below, for a vintage pic it is pretty much A+ in terms of quality.

  

What if I ran this clear image through an AI enhancement generator, though? Naturally a vintage image this clear works wonders in an AI machine. As you can see, it refines the old pic and makes it as clear as day.

Now, some of you may well prefer the original copy. All I am doing is showing you the possibilities. Here is the updated version after AI cleaned it up.

You have to look closely at the first example because the only real changes are the clarity within the image itself. But let’s scale it down a little bit.

For our next example, let’s take a mid-range spanking pic of dubious quality. Good enough that you can see the action, but the picture is in poor condition overall.

Is this perhaps the best use of an AI enhancement? Having run it through the generator the image quality is vastly improved. Most notably, the ‘plastic’ feel in the enhanced pic isn’t very big. It is hedging towards some 2D frames, but overall it retains its original form with a much clearer version.

Perhaps the above example is the limit as to what an AI enhancement generator can actually do right now. That doesn’t mean that it won’t get better, and truthfully speaking, it probably will get better within the next couple of years.

This example process wouldn’t be complete, though, if I didn’t also share a spanking image that is complete wank in quality.

Let’s see what an AI generated enhancer can do with this beauty.

As the old saying goes, you can’t make a silk purse out of a sow’s ear!!

Are there improvements? I would say that there are some. The writing is clearer, and it has enhanced about 50% of the exterior, but did it do a good job overall? I would have to say no. If you have a thing for one-eyed women then perhaps you might enjoy it more, but as it stands an AI enhancement generator can’t do much for those really poor pics.

It will improve, that I’m in no doubt, but it isn’t quite there yet.

Leave a comment if you so wish… Who am I kidding, lol.

Odds And Sods

photos, , , , , , ,

No real theme today, I’m just unloading a handful of pics that would never see the day otherwise. I have bucket loads of poorly produced spanking images, weird angles, old drawings etc. but I will never get around to posting them all.

It is always my opinion, though, that someone, somewhere, will enjoy one of these images, even if they are nothing more than throw away pics for me. Hopefully you will get something from them.

The first one is not new, but I really like the colors in this John Wayne spanking pic.

Here are two super old drawings. The first one was found on an old tapestry, and the second one is also as old as mud, seemingly in an inn of some kind.

An advertisement for the 1937 film, La Fessee.

A 1926 magazine/book cover. Note the cigarette and alcohol on the floor.

And to round out this pile of shite, an old birching image.

The Devil By The Tail

photos, ,

Yesterday I was perusing old movie magazines, and I stumbled across this image in a French mag. At first I wasn’t even sure whether it was a swat, or if it was just a camera angle.

So off searching I went. On YouTube there are a few trailer-style videos, and the entire film can be seen on Russian sites. Now, probably like yourself, I wouldn’t touch a Russian site with a ten-foot pole, so I was left with the short videos.

True enough, this image represents a swat given in the film. Now I don’t know if it is a single swat or not. The swat seems to be taken from a scene, but I didn’t see the entire scene. Perhaps it is longer than one swat.

Anyway, I’m always happy to add something new to the community. The movie name is the title of this post and it was made in 1969.

Windsor Sunday Candid’s – 185

photos, , ,

Considering all of the wonderful spanking images I have found over the years, it is strange that a simple picture like the one below has a good effect on me.

Before I share that image, be sure to visit my picture blog where I have posted a video for today’s entry. The video is from the old 1933 movie, MAN OF THE FOREST.

Why do I like the image below, though?

For some reason the hairbrush in this image stands out for me. I’m not sure of the year, but judging by the spankee’s knickerbockers, it has to be from the very early 1900s, if not the 1890s.

Hairbrushes… good for spankings for well over a hundred years.

The Human Tornado

photos, , ,

Yesterday I had a butcher’s (look) on eBay, and I found a 1976 Lobby Card for the movie “The Human Tornado.” Follow the highlighted link above to view the eBay auction.

As you can see from the linked photo, the angle is awful. With that in mind, I decided to see if I could find the film itself. Fortunately I found it on Youtube and I clipped the spanking scene from the film.

It is only 4 swats that are delivered, but they are pretty meaty smacks. The guy doing the spanking is Ernie Hudson.

On Monday, I have the spanking video scheduled over on my DAILY SPANKING PICS blog. Be sure to visit that picture blog as there is a new pic every day. Some of the pics date back many years that I have never posted before.
