Metabolic Engine 01

This piece serves as a demonstration that something can be incredibly disturbing without a hint of gore.  In fact, I think Metabolic Engine 01 from sculptor Giusy Amoroso is incredibly beautiful.  It's also absolutely horrific.  

 

 

 

Back to 1969

Over on Reddit, 27-Staples has released their handouts for the classic"Tatters of the King" Call of Cthulhu scenario, but a version time-shifted to 1969.  Given what transpires with the King in Yellow, the year of Woodstock, Chappaquiddick, the moon landing, and the Manson murders is an inspired choice.  Can you dig the Yellow Sign?

 

  

Great Cthulhu

Masked Mummy

This wonderful piece comes to us from the appropriately named Relics of the Blind Dead.  It's a mummified head featuring a partial life mask.  An absolutely brilliant idea, with perfect execution.

Millecuirs returns to our pages with another fantastic example of tomecraft.  This time it's the Grimoire of the Eye, featuring a hand-tooled leather cover, custom eye embossment, and some excellent weathering.

 

 

"Murder of Crows" Props

This collection of props for the "Murder of Crows" scenario for Call of Cthulhu comes to us from Pomchop.  Believe it or not, the Abenaki spirit stone was created using salt dough, the same simple material beloved by teachers and generations of kids.
