There are some who say the internet was invented for one reason and one reason only: to propagate pornography. We’re not sure if that’s really why it exists, but it’s certainly our favorite thing about it.

At 26 years old, Canadian model Ariel Rebel has already built an online empire, running not only her own web sites—her paid site, her free blog, and a web comic—but a network of sites starring other models, as well as her own affiliate program. That might sound like a lot, but to a technophile like Ariel, it’s barely enough to keep her from getting bored. “Some people would call me a workaholic,” she says, “but I don’t think of it as work. I’ve always been very creative, and I’m super active online, so it never seems like a chore to work on my sites.”

Ariel started her own website in 2005, but it wasn’t until 2008 that she took the reins. Wanting to better reflect her personality, she started
shooting more and more of her own content and adding features—including a collection of her favorite recipes—that she felt her fans would enjoy. She wanted there to be something for everyone.

“What I’m doing online,” she tells us, “no one else is doing right now. I like glamour and beauty, so even if I’m fucking myself with a dildo, it’s going to be very cinematic.”

The unique aesthetic of Ariel’s sites—which combines ideas from classic glamour shoots, Japanese anime, and rock ’n’ roll—has lured in women and couples, in addition to the scores of men who follow her online exploits. “There are fans who really interact with me online, and those people are awesome,” she says. “But some just want to get in, jerk off, and get out, and that’s okay, too.”

Pleasing horny men and running a porn empire wasn’t always the plan. Her first love, Ariel admits, is the theater. When she realized acting wasn’t going to be the most profitable career, she headed to college, majoring in fashion design. When she needed cash, she started working in a local sex shop, and one thing led to another. “An amateur photographer approached me at work one day and asked if I’d do a shoot with him,” she tells us. “After that I did some webcamming, but that didn’t last long. It did, however, allow me to meet a ton of girls and photographers, and I started modeling a lot more. I realized I liked doing it. It’s fun to see my inner femme fatale come out during a shoot, and I like showing off for the camera. Most of all, I love seeing the results, especially when I get to see my photos online or in magazines. It’s a rush.”

Ariel often finds herself doing quick 30-minute shoots of an idea that’s popped into her head. She admits that the photos that appear here came about in much the same way. “A fan had sent me these adorable panties from Penthouse, and I decided I needed to shoot in
them,” she explains. “I had so much fun shooting that set. Afterward, I decided to send the photos to Penthouse. It’s always been a dream of mine to shoot for the magazine, and I figured, What the hell? Then I got the call that my photos were going to run. I couldn’t believe it.”

When Ariel isn’t starring in her fans’ fantasies, she’s working with other gorgeous girls. “Honestly, one of the best parts of my job is looking at all the hot naked girls,” she says. “It’s definitely a pleasure.”

She’s not kidding, folks. Ariel doesn’t simply like looking at girls for work; she’s attracted to them in her everyday life as well. “Sometimes I like butchy girls, sometimes more girlie girls,” she says. “I like a girl with a nice butt. That’s definitely a turn-on. Too hairy a pussy is a breaking point, though.” Even her favorite fantasy involves other women: having a ladies-only orgy. “I’ve never done it, but I want to,” she admits. “It’s on my list.”

Also on Ariel’s list is internet domination. In addition to updating her comic with new stories and redesigning her website, Ariel wants to start a video series where she teaches men how to woo women, with life tips and cooking lessons. “I want to show men how to be sexy,” she tells us. “And men who can cook—that’s sexy.”

Casual Killer

Casual KillerDoes a Valentine’s Day date signal the death of a casual relationship? Our twenty-first-century rogue tells you how to keep it from getting serious.

I’ve been seeing this girl for a year now. We went on our first date last Valentine’s Day, after I answered her personals ad saying she was looking for company that night. Needless to say, I got laid. At that time, she played it off like she wasn’t into Valentine’s or relationships or any of that, but now she’s dropping hints and it’s becoming increasingly obvious that she wants me to do something special for Valentine’s, even though we still haven’t even had a conversation about being exclusive. I have the terrible feeling she’s using our “anniversary” as a way to see where I stand. How do I show her a decent time without sending her the wrong message and getting trapped in a full-blown relationship?

Forget cupid’s arrow, my friend. This girl is about to nail you to the butcher’s block. Have you thought about getting out of town? Can your mom be convinced to die that weekend? Short of that, you want to treat her nice without getting too romantic. In fact, drop the “ro” altogether and make your night just plain man-tic. Keep things safely in the proverbial testosterone zone by, say, treating her to box seats at a hockey game (assuming she digs hockey enough that you avoid the old “we only do things you like” complaint) Even if she ends up bitching that you’re at a fluorescent-lit gladiator pit while all her friends are at fancy restaurants, there isn’t a recrimination in the world that can’t be squelched with, “Do you realize how much I spent on these tickets?” That said, when some schmuck proposes to his girlfriend on the Jumbotron, ridicule him mercilessly in order to make it clear that you’re not about to ever go there, and then, before she can say “boo” (or, more worrisome, call you her “boo”), be so gallant as to ask her if she wants more nachos.

I’m sure you get the idea: Lay her down in a bed of roses, but make sure said roses have thorns. You don’t want her getting too comfortable. And if the night does end in “I never want to see you again” dramatics, don’t worry. Everyone breaks up on V-day. February 15 is prime time for cruising the net for randy rebounders.

Girls’ Night In

Girls Night In girls night Most Naked Lady Parties are just about clothes. But some women like to break out the booze and sex toys and go a little wild.

Maybe you’ve heard your wife, girlfriend, or female friends talk about attending a Naked Lady Party. Essentially, it’s a clothing swap where women bring their unwanted outfits to the host’s home and spend the evening swilling cocktails and modeling one another’s clothes. Everyone walks away with a few items and a good time is had by all. And although women are undressing in front of each other, there’s nothing necessarily sexual about the event. That is, unless you attend one hosted by my friend Cameron.

A sexy, beer-swilling, blonde workaholic, Cam is known for instigating debauchery at her occasional parties—and the last one was no exception. (more…)

Body of Work

Body of WorkThere’s a school of artists that thinks that naked women like those we admire in these pages every month can be improved upon with a layer of paint.
By Jennifer Peters

When we here at Penthouse think of gorgeous nude women being used for artistic purposes, we think of the photographic wonders we share with our readers in every issue: beautiful women doing their thing in their birthday suits, or near enough. Body painting combines the inherent eroticism of seeing a naked woman with artistic elements typically saved for the canvas, creating beautiful and bewildering works of flesh and fantasy.

One of the best body painters on the scene is Patrick Leis, an illustrator and writer from Copenhagen who found his way into the world of body painting by accident. “I was at a carnival with friends and did some face-painting for them,” he tells us. “Some event planner came by and saw my work and wanted to know if I also did body paint, so I said sure. I’d never tried it before, but next thing I know I’m on a stage painting a model, and a magazine is taking pictures. I started to get calls for professional body-paint work after that.”

While Leis paints a lot of T-shirts, lingerie, and other clothing on models at the behest of his clients, he insists the possibilities are endless; he’s best known for his sci-fi-themed creations. “My favorite style is to blend the erotic—which draws the eye—with the scary stuff, which makes you want to look away.”

That combination of aesthetics helped Leis win the European and World Bodypaint Championships, as well as both body paint challenges in the 2010 World Art Connect competition, where he was up against 14 of the best artists in his field, all of whom had won other championship titles. That respect among his peers and those wins make it easy to find models—“Some times I come across a woman I simply must work with, but most models call me. Usually they find me online”—even though the job of modeling is no easy task. One of his pieces can take anywhere from three to eight hours to complete, during which the model has to be naked and fairly still—and then she needs to be photographed. But when Leis finds a model, he makes sure to keep her happy. “It’s all about chemistry,” he explains. “If you can make them laugh, that helps. I take my work seriously, but not myself, and that helps them relax.

“I want the models to trust me,” Leis continues, “and I always ask if they want to bring someone along when we work. Anything that will make them more comfortable. The models I work with tend to be real professionals, and I make sure they know what they’re getting themselves into and what they can expect from me. You have to make the models happy to get the best work out of them. One bad review can ruin you in this industry.”

Despite those hours Leis spends with his attractive naked canvases, he says that that’s all they are. “When looking at the pictures after a project is complete and the brushes have been washed, of course I can appreciate the greatlooking girls,” he assures us. “But I don’t think I’d be able to do body paint if I couldn’t separate my profession from my personal life.”

That doesn’t mean you can’t get up close and personal with a model of your own. While Leis works primarily with an airbrush to paint his living masterpieces, he suggests the at-home painter start out with edible chocolate body paint and try some abstract art. “A simple T-shirt or swimsuit is easy, and seeing the finished work can be quite satisfying,” he says. “I use all kinds of tools, props, and techniques. Anything I can think of. I’ll use an old grill plate as a stencil, make patterns with latex or tape—pretty much anything you can imagine can be used.”

You heard the man: It’s time to give free rein to your imagination. Of course, Halloween provides the perfect opportunity. Just tell your girl you’ve discovered the perfect way to create a homemade costume that you can both enjoy.

Sweet Treats

Halloween TreatsHalloween gives repressed girls the perfect excuse to dress like sluts, but our twenty-first-century rogue tells you how to pick up a woman who isn’t just playing a part.

Q:
Dear Scoundrel,
My buddy has a huge Halloween party every year, and there are usually decent opportunities for hookups. Are there any guidelines about what a sexy costume says about the chick wearing it? Is Catwoman likely to get animalistic? Is a girl in slutty Leatherface gear the type to get down and dirty? Are the odds of getting to Wonderland better with a cute Alice or a barely dressed one? I could give you 100 more examples, but I’m sure you get the idea.

A:
First off, don’t waste your time dogging sexy kittens (or sexy nurses, sexy librarians, or any of the rest of it). Every dick in a box will be springing for them. (more…)
