Is Evil Afoot at Evil Angel?

Last week we brought you news of Evil Angel’s latest endeavor, a clothing line designed by an erotic artist named Ricky Carrefero. But it turns out Ricky Carrefero may have been bombarded with allegations of evil once before. Welcome, dear reader, to the contentious world of erotic illustration.

Back in the early 2000s, a Los Angeles artist named Armando Huerta claimed that another man in his same line of work was passing Huerta’s work off as his own. The alleged plagiarist had been painting over portions of Huerta’s images and signing his own name, effectively changing nothing but the source (so, everything). The alleged plagiarist even managed to have a book containing a many such pieces published by SQP Art Books. The name of the alleged plagiarist? Ricky Carralero. Hmmm – that sounds familiar…

Now, there’s every chance that two men with almost identical names were working the same brush ‘n’ ink beat at the same time, but fuck… Was the artist behind Evil Angel’s new apparel endeavor also a thief, a phony, a plagiarist? Lingering doubts about the spelling of Carrefero and Carralero (and whatever other variations might exist) kept me searching. The only notable results appearing via Google for a “Ricky Carrefero” related to the announcement of Evil Angel’s clothing line about which I previously blogged, leaving me to wonder whether if “Ricky Carrefero” isn’t just a (barely) new name adopted by the same guy who allegedly ripped off Huerta. (And, by “allegedly” I mean “according to everyone posting at this blog“.) Or perhaps, as this post on the news page of Wicked Kulture, the website Carralero’s runs for his so-named erotic apparel company (natch!) refers to the man who’ll be applying color to cotton for EA by the same spelling that appears in Wicked Kulture’s byline and the front cover of the SQP Publication mentioned earlier, Art Premiere #1, Ricky Carralero is the only person Ricky Carralero can rely on to spell Ricky Carralero correctly.

Three Years of Cumming Loudly

One of those porn networks easily passed over in favor of the Brazzers and Bang Bros of the industry, Cum Louder recently celebrated its third birthday with a very special scene that, as this shot from its early moments clearly shows, couldn’t be anything but incredible.

From left to right, that’s Portugal’s NoeMilk, France’s Anissa Kate, Romanian Jasmine Black, and from Bulgaria, Claudia Shotz. And yes, they all appear in the scene, taking on three very lucky gentlemen in an orgy scene that trumps the four-minute clip compilation ‘Best of 2012’ that celebrated Cum Louder’s second year. NoeMilk and Anissa Kate, both powerful and compelling performers in individual scenes, seem especially thrilled to be given the chance to get properly acquainted, grabbing each other by the shoulders and making out passionately while Jasmine and Claudia seem entranced by the poundings they’re receiving.

Cum Louder might not have the 1080i HD videos (720p) and thousands of scenes it promises to prospective members, but for all its faults, any network that can gather talent like this to celebrate its third year of pornographic accomplishment achieved by following is well worth paying attention to.

Wear Evil on Your Sleeve

If you really love a particular band, you can advertise that fact with a t-shirt. If you really love Nike’s shoes, you can brand yourself with a chest-mounted tick motif and show the world how you don’t think and instead “Just Do It”. Hell, if you’re immensely proud of the fact that you partake in the United States democratic process, you can even promote the act of voting with an “I Voted” sticker on election day. But what do you do if you want to tell the world how much you enjoy the work of a particular pornography studio? If studio in question is Evil Angel, well, now there’s a solution.

Preparing to officially launch in the near future, Evil Angel’s latest endeavor, a clothing line sporting artwork designed by a longtime fan, may not yet be ready for public purchases but after giving fans and industry bodies a sneak peek at the recent International Lingerie Show, which took place at the Rio Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas on April 8-10. The artist, Ricky Carralero, came to Evil Angel by submitting original artworks for publication in EA head honcho John Stagliano’s Buttman Magazine. That artwork later ended up on some t-shirts and impressed Stagliano enough to warrant launching a new venture for his massively successful Evil Angel brand. The clothing line, which includes t-shirts for men and women, and tank tops, leggings, and camel-toe panties for women, each item boasting Carralero’s tattoo-style paintings, will be officially unleashed on consumers in a few months time, once Stagliano and crew “see what works and what doesn’t”.

Welcome to the DollHouse

DollHouse Films Danger Core is a network largely devoted to pornstars – Lisa Ann, Ava Addams, Faye Reagan, Stormy Daniels, Kayden Kross, and Jayden Jaymes make their online homes here – but there’s one man making waves with aggressive stylistic experimentation that separates his unique brand of porn from everything else this network (or any other) produces. That man’s name is (strangely enough) Se7en and the site where you can see his kinky softcore stylings is DollHouse Films.

Following on from our recent review of DollHouse Films, I thought I’d take a moment to elaborate on the unique style found here. Se7en has clearly instructed his makeup artists to go for a pseudo-gothic look and the models’ eyes are almost uniformly surrounded by thick dark powder. The black makeup often extends to their lips, Skin Diamond looking especially volatile as she poses before a US flag. This black makeup is all part of the dirty, even filthy aesthetic in place at DollHouse, an aesthetic that also sees Lily Carter, Gracie Glam, Idelsy Love, Heather Vahn and others don leather and latex outfits skimpier than most. You’ll even see Dani Daniels and Nina James take steaming hot showers, lathering their curvaceous bodies with nature’s most essential lubricant, water. Yes, in the hands of DollHouse’s crews and cast members, even water is an erotic artifact with a thrilling purpose!

Se7en’s camera moves in very close to grab powerful images and lusty views of his models as they cavort in the nude and in the aforementioned fetish wear for your entertainment. And, although small in it’s content offerings, DollHouse is nothing if not entertaining as it bridges fetish and kink porn with softcore glamour in one man’s indomitable, spirited style, proving that even without explicit sexual activity, you can still be hardcore.
