WIP Train #27 - Cerene's cuffs (Patreon)
Content
By now you're all aware that Lanessa replaces Cerene's elaborate cock armor with a set of modest, silver cuffs in Bloodlust: Lanessa - Blood Crown.
Cerene's outfit in Blood Crown didn't look like this from the start though, and that's what I'll talk about today. Initially we thought of keeping elements of Cerene's armor and coupling them with the restraints that Lanessa puts on her. We experimented with a few different looks before we decided that the silver cuffs looked best while also serving the purpose of the story.
Below you can see some WIP images of experimental outfits that we tried out.
Originally we wanted to apply a glowing effect to the cuffs to convey that Cerene is under the influence of Lanessa's magic while she's restrained. Another reason why we tried adding a glow to the restraints was to make sure that it's easy to tell them apart from Cerene's personal accessories. Sadly the material of the cuffs and the light effect didn't work well together and we weren't able to achieve the look we were after. The results ended up looking either too much like plastic or too bold.
We didn't want to make Cerene look like she's wearing some toys or like she's attending a rave party. (Not during Blood Crown at least, she can do whatever she wants in her spare time. Bondage rave party anyone?)
At a certain point we also entertained the idea of giving Cerene a collar with nipple chains, but that was going a little overboard for us. If you've ever daydreamed of seeing Cerene with nipple piercings, here's proof we considered it though. :P
After giving it some thought we decided that allowing Cerene to wear her regal attire or to cover up at all wouldn't necessarily serve Lanesa's agenda, so we kept Cerene nude save for the bindings.
We're secretly still hoping to get the magic effect in there, but for now we're working on an alternative solution. Cerene's cuffs may still be tweaked a bit.
