3D Boyfriends

3D art is a tricky medium, especially in the world of gay erotica. There are some artists who do it well, Ulf comes to mind with his overly-muscled, thickly endowed specimens of manhood. And he can get away with the creepy, soulless stare that the men in gay 3D art always seem to peer out at us with. After all, who's honestly looking at the eyes when there’s a three foot piece of man-meat being thrust into a (ahem) tight virgin bubble butt? However, when there’s nothing as astonishing as impossible proportions and improbable actions to keep the viewer’s attention from the “hotties of the corn” blank stares, there’s just something unnerving about this particular style of art.

3D Boyfriends is a site that primarily focuses on the art of…well…3D boys. The problem of the eyes, the disconnect between viewer and subject, is all too apparent here. The works are set up in galleries, each named for a different “model” like Anton, Sled, and Fargo. The artist seems to want to create more realistic men than those muscle behemoths of Ulf or the like. These are regular boyfriends; regular, creepy, soulless boyfriends. While the intention might be commendable, it doesn’t work so well. The problem is, the models are doing very little but lounging about on the grass or displayed in sexy poses or (strangely enough) doing kung fu in the buff. There’s no attempt to combine a couple of models even for a little cyber nookie. If computers had their own porn and were unaware of what humans looked like, this might be their soft-core version. You can almost hear an electronic groan in the background. These galleries only go to show what a long way gay 3D erotica has to go.

Though the 3D images do make up a good portion of the site, there are five other master galleries to choose from: Gay Illustrated, Hunky Hentai, Male Works, Gay Cartoon, and a free offer of bonus sites if you stay a member. Of these galleries the talent ranges from what can be seen any day on the year, galleries. Works by Etienne, The Hun, and others that can be seen for free on a hundred other sites on the net are also featured.

On the plus side, the site is exceptionally easy to navigate. The choices are right there upon entering so there’s no real deciphering to be done.

3D Boyfriends might be a good intro site to the art of 3D erotica, or even the works of other artistic erotica luminaries like Julius and Tom of Finland, but for those of us who are already familiar with the more progressive and exciting works of Ulf and have seen the previously mentioned traditional artists on numerous other websites, this is nothing but a bland repeat.
