2015 Squick or Squee Week I: A Gift to Septimo

Introduction

We have two kinds of art — all of it specially commissioned for Erotic Mad Science — running as part of our annual pre-Halloween tradition of Squick or Squee week. The first two will be two new illustrations by DMFO, both pulp art recreations. This one is “A Gift to Septimo.”

Bespoke Art Volume 3 Now in the Archive

I am pleased to announce that Volume 3 of the Erotic Mad Science Bespoke Art is now preserved in the Internet Archive. You can flip through and see what’s there through the Archive’s cunning embedded flip page. Try it and see!

You can access the archive page here, where you can get all 24 images in various archive formats, including a .ZIP and a .CBZ file. All of these are images published before at Erotic Mad Science, mostly as part of our first series of pulp art reconstructions, but many of them are being published for the first time at their full size and resolution, in some times many times that which appeared on this site. Feel free to download and, thanks to the Creative Commons license under which I’ve published them, share all you like.
