Adventures in DIY silicone sex toys

…on the Borg Queen xenomorph hiphugger parasite cosplay costume for my wife.

She made a life-sized dressmaker’s cast of herself. This still startles me every time I wake up in the middle of the night to pee.

It skitters.

It scurries.

It searches, searches for a host, a host to clamp on to, a host whose mind it can control, a host to send into a frenzy of need, ravishing any who come near, spreading the parasite’s seed.

When I was a kid, like 11 or 12 or so, my parents, God bless them, took me to see the movie Alien.

Needless to say, it left a mark on me. For the next thirty years, my nightmares were about the H. R. Giger-designed creature from that movie. So when my wife suggested that I design a sex toy inspired by the facehugger from Alien, of course I said yes. What better than a sex toy in the (literal) shape of my fears?

The idea was a facehugger that would wrap around the wearer’s hips, with a dildo for a tail.

I set to work designing the Xenomorph Hiphugger Strapon in a 3D rendering program, and printed several mockups on a 3D printer to check size and general design.

With the design made, I designed and 3D printed silicone molds, and did some test pours.

The mold is huge!

Based on this, I made adjustments to the mold. On the advice of my wife and my co-author, I modified the tail to include a cum tube, because the only thing more horrifying than being ravished by a xenomorph hiphugger parasite is being ravished by a xenomorph hiphugger parasite that’s dripping slime.

Once the adjustments were done, I printed new molds, and I’ve just made the first casting of the finished design.

The straps mount to a ring that’s set in the underside, and go between the legs to hold the hiphugger firmly to the wearer’s hips.

This is the most challenging design I’ve done so far, but I like how it’s coming along!

…a vaguely Lovecraftian gag designed to look like tentacles sprouting from the wearer’s mouth.

This was a fun project. It’s actually more a bite block than a gag (though I may make a version that’s more of a traditional gag, with a strap to hold it in, I wanted to make a version without a strap that looked better). It’s poured in Shore 20 silicone from a six-part 3D-printed mold that took quite a bit of work to design.

The final version includes a tube into the wearer’s mouth. The first version lacked the tube, but Certain People in my social circle who shall remain nameless to protect the guilty observed that it makes no sense to be parasitized by tentacles if the tentacles can’t pump fluids into the host, so here we are.

Currently working on a commission that isn’t a tentacle or an alien ovipositor; it’s a request for a silicone reproduction of a 1950s Oberto mouth guard used during electroshock therapy.

Apparently the originals, if you can find them, are highly coveted by people in the electrosex kink scene, so on the rare occasions they pop up for sale, they’re crazy expensive.

A client wanted me to create silicone reproductions. I found the old patent drawings on Google, and I’ve been working to model the device in 3D, so I can 3D print a mold for casting it in silicone.

The street truly does find its own uses for things. I had no idea this kink existed, yet here we are.

Some short while ago, as I pondered designing tentacle toys with multiple different grades of silicone to create a more authentic hentai tentacle-ravishment feel, a dear friend and altogether lovely woman pointed out that a truly authentic hentai experience inevitably includes tentacle slime. It’s not genuine tentacle ravishment without slime.

So of course I immediately set to work experimenting with various edible lubes, food coloring, and glow-in-the-dark pigments looking for the perfect tentacle slime to accompany the tentacles.

Early experiments were modestly successful. I started out with a base of nuru massage lube, a pinch of powdered food coloring, and a bit of non-toxic glow-in-the-dark pigment:

This wasn’t quite the color I wanted, but it did have something like the correct consistency, certainly, for an authentic tentacle-ravishment experience:

Further experiments got closer to the mark, with a better color and excellent glow:

Sadly, nuru massage lube goes bad very quickly after it’s prepared; you can’t really keep it. So I tried again with a non-toxic lube with a more stable base:

Not too bad, all things considered. Non-toxic, body-safe, and suitably slimy for that true-to-life tentacle experience.

Alas, it’s also incredibly fussy to make. I’d considered making a powder that people can mix at home when they want their tentacles with tentacle slime, but the lube itself interferes with the food coloring powder; you can’t mix them together or the coloring just clumps up. So it needs to be mixed in two steps, with two different sets of powder (the coloring and glow in the dark part, then the powdered lube), and it’s more faffing than I think most people will want to put up with.

So as much as I like this idea, this is one of those experiments going into the “not really workable” bin.

Two-person, double-sided tentacle gag, for those occasions when you want to lock two people together in muffled hentai bliss.

Because tentacles are like the Spanish Inquisition…nobody ecer expects them! (Though I’ll warrant if you’re reading this, you’ll probably find tentacles more welcome than the Inquisition.)

I don’t know yet what you’ll find here. I plan to update this blog occasionally with new prototypes and ideas I’m noodling on. It will be an adventure!
