Wooden Cthulhu Idol

I love the stylized lines of this carved wooden Cthulhu idol from artist Andrew Tucker Stray.

 

Cthulhu Fhtagn! Wojcik Edition.

This betentacled Cthulhu idol comes to us from Polish artist Kajetan Wojcik.

 

 

The All Father

Morok Art Studio brings us this nicely done figure of the Norse god Odin in a gilt stone finish.  It comes complete with the All Father's posse, the wolves Geri and Freki, and the twin ravens Huginn and Muninn.

 

Skull of the Third Eye

 Karen Main is no stranger to these pages.  Here latest project is a skull with a third eye, based on on original painting by Gabriel Londis.

 

Elder Thing Star Stone

"Have found peculiar soapstone fragment about six inches across and an inch and a half thick, wholly unlike any visible local formation. Greenish, but no evidences to place its period. Has curious smoothness and regularity. Shaped like five-pointed star with tips broken off, and signs of other cleavage at inward angles and in centre of surface. Small, smooth depression in centre of unbroken surface. Arouses much curiosity as to source and weathering. Probably some freak of water action. Carroll, with magnifier, thinks he can make out additional markings of geologic significance. Groups of tiny dots in regular patterns. Dogs growing uneasy as we work, and seem to hate this soapstone."

 - H. P. Lovecraft, "At the Mountains of Madness"

 The talented Joe Broers returns to our pages with this excellent take on an Elder Thing star stone.

 

Cthulhu Fhtagn! Tsougkouzidis Edition.

Another amazing piece from George Tsougkouzidis.  This Cthulhu idol was hand sculpted in clay and then cast in resin, with multiple paint jobs available.

 

 

Larval

Ahu Cokol returns to our pages with this larval creature specimen.   I'd love to see the final casting painted up.

 

Living Reliquary

I'm not sure if this is really cool, or incredibly creepy.  Ugo Serrano returns to our pages with this custom made reliquary.  What makes it unusual is that the bone fragment was surgically removed from someone that's still alive.  

 

Icon of Cthulhu

Artist Aleks Nocny brings us this Giger-esque Cthulhu icon.  Open up the picture in a new tab to take a look at the incredible texturing.

 

A Trio of Demons

Tom Kuebler is one of the premiere creature artists in the country.  This trio of mummified demons demonstrates why.

 

Great Cthulhu

This WIP Cthulhu idol in clay comes to us from Artist Marta L. Macia. 

 

The Crow

The talented Francesco Sanseverino brings us this impressive crow mask and costume, inspired by the Bloodborne video game.

 

Mummified Fairy

I really like the sculpting on this mummified fairy specimen from Crawly Curios.  A lot of these are just dollar store skeletons with a skin coat of paper mache or latex.  There's nothing wrong with that, but actually taking the time to model anatomical details like ears, eyelids, and lips is so much more convincing.

 

Icon of Cthulhu

 Some very nice texture work in this Cthulhu icon from artist Ahu Cokol.

 

The Great Old One

This Cthulhu bust from Grant Cross is a good demonstration of translating a digital sculpt into a high quality 3D print.  There's a huge price differential between resin and filament printers, but the results speak for themselves.  

 

The Great Grimoire

Stick N Rope returns to our pages with another wonderfully weathered grimoire.  The pictures really don't convey just how big this book is- a sprawling 16.5 by 18 inches.  

 

Not of this Earth

"Specimen is a humanoid sapient organism of extraterrestrial origin measuring 15cm in length. Alien body remains possesses a reptilian resembling head with a pair of black beady eyes and bodily human like features."

This nicely done alien specimen, complete with containment tube, comes to us from MonsterLabs Studios.

 

LARP Samurai Armor

The level of craftsmanship in this set of LARP samurai armor from Arte sul Cuoio just boggles the mind.  Click through to see their full gallery.

 

Coin of the Realm

How immersive is the massive Bicolline LARP in Canada?  They mint their own coins.  This collection of solars from the lands of Acquesse is brought to us by Mordom LARP Costume.  

 

What Are You Looking At, Smoothskin?

RadRoachGear returns to our pages with this Fallout ghoul LARP costume.

 

Cthulhu Fhtagn! Marquez Edition.

Over the least few years Alberto Camargo Marquez has been creating some really interesting variations on the traditional Cthulhu idol.  His latest effort continues that trend with a multi-limbed Cthulhu on a pillar-style base.
