Maybe if you were born in a barn or raised in the wilderness by wolves with no Internet connection, you may not have seen the artwork of The Pit. As one of the most pirated and copied artists online, maybe you’ve seen his work but may not know him by name. He just started his own Patreon but most people know him as a major contributor on JohnPersons.com. I’ve always adored his art but I never really looked at his work closely until I too started contributing to Persons’ site. Here’s a list of the top seven things I learned from The Pit’s art.

1. Abs and Bubble Butt.

I generally draw my women pretty curvey and when my characters have big butts (think Kelsi Monroe) I rarely ever give a defined midsection. NOT The Pit! He taught me a girl looks damn fantastic rocking washboard abs AND a bubble butt.

2. Make it Shiny.

In my porn comics there’s always some kind of oil, saliva, or body fluid going on so I’m not shy with glossy skin surfaces but The Pit takes it to a new level. It’s not about just making something “shiny”, it’s about contrast. And in art, contrast is good.

3. Tongue Tied

I used think of the tongue as a static part of the mouth that just kinda sits there if it’s not being directly used. Kinda like if you’re jerking off with your right hand, your left hand may not be doing much. The Pit uses the tongue as a flexible organic element that does just as much as any other area of the mouth. Especially if she’s giving great head.

4. Butt Shadows

How do you “sell” a big ass in a picture? Great shadows. Without strong shadows the booty will come across less spherical. If it’s drawn well you can pull it off but shadows help seal the deal.

5. Big Tits, Small Waist.

This seems obvious. I draw big tits with small waists all the time, right? If you look at most of The Pit’s big tit girls, he draws them with a natural weight (the art term, not their body weight) that makes their jugs look believable and natural.

6. Cock Rhythm

When doing panels or storyboarding, there are a lot of ways to establish rhythm. Rhythm is meant to direct the eye of the reader, establish a flow, and make your panels interesting. The Pit sometimes uses cocks to do this. Often I would focus on one dick and foreshorten or down right omit the other schlongs in the panel. When I saw The Pit use this, it blew my mind. It’s Genius.

7. Copious Spit

Even though I love sloppy, nasty, drooly, blowjobs, I used to rarely draw them. The Pit is not shy to dehydrate a bitch to illustrate the best blow jobs in the world. Therefore, don’t be afraid to make it wet, and nasty.
