We have such sights to show you...

Pinhead, from Hellraiser - a small tribute to an everlasting Icon of the Horror Genre.

The Demons that come and reward with pain your solving of the Lament Configuration seem to be a warning to stave the natural Human quality of curiosity. Will we ever delve to far in our quest for knowledge?

The One that cannot be named.


The One That Cannot be named in the shape of one of his avatars - The King in Yellow.

Small "Cthulhian" Quiz: Who is "The One That cannot be named"?

Beware that if you name him, he might come :D

I´m quite satisfied with the overall dark, decadent look with which this one came out. Looks to me just what he is - a maddened king slumping in his throne. He could well be dead for all we can see - or is he just waiting?

The symbol floating above the figure is the Yellow Sign
I have put my sanity at risk by drawing the Yellow Sign - all my future actions are now controled by the King in Yellow ;)

Roll your Cthulhu RPG Sanity Checks! :D

The Black Goat in The Woods with a Thousand Young

On a roll to depict the Cthulhu Mythos entities, I give you Shub-Niggurath. Although described as a "miasmic mass of tentacles" and a "cloudy mass", the epithet of "Black Goat" always burned a definite image in my mind, image which served as basis for the above drawing.

Apparently, according to the entry in Wikipedia, one Rodolfo Ferraresi wrote an essay ("The Question of Shub-Niggurath") in which he defends that Shub-Niggurath and the Black Goat are in fact two separate entities.

Now that I´m on a roll, Ill try and go through the majority of the Cthulhu Mythos. I do take requests :D

Crawling Chaos


Prompted by Julião I took up is suggestion of tackling my depiction of Nyarlathotep.

Talk about leaving it open to imagination! - Nyarlathotep is supposed to have 1000 shapes!

I read wikipedia´s entry on this Outer God and instead of following by letter some of the aspects of Nyarlathotep in the list I read it diagonally and till I had the gist of it.

This Dark, tentacled, multi-mouthed female was the end result, with which I was quite happy. I quite like the effect of the swirling Chaos in the backdrop - kind of looks like the veiny, translucid, inside of some organ.

Still, all done with GIMP, a mouse, and a hand I had to shake once in a while to avoid cramps :P

It´s been a bit slow...

Cheers,

A surge of work combined with vacations as led me to be astray from the drawing board for quite some time now...

However, you can expect new work to be put up during the next days :)

Current project (by request): Nyarlathotep :)
