Longtime friend of the site Tim Lonegan dropped me a note yesterday about this incredible piece. He commissioned a truly unique Cthulhu statue from artist Gage Prentiss, himself no stranger to these pages. I strongly recommend clicking through on the link to check out the full gallery of photographs and the detailed backstory behind the statue.
You'll have a chance to view the piece in person at the NecronomiCON Providence art show in August.
This hefty beast comes to us from Danish artist Anders Lerche. It's an unusual piece in that the casting is a latex skin filled with urethane foam. I believe that would make it not only a nifty Mythos prop, but a LARP-safe weapon as well. Heh.
Over on Reddit, the intriguingly named Mothmansight has posted a collection of handouts for Operation Fulminate: Sentinels of Twilight, the introductory scenario in the Delta Green Handler's Guide. They help round out an investigation that already includes an impressive number of printed props.
Good morning, friends. Seth Skorkowsky returns to our pages with a review of "Cthulhu by Gaslight", Chaosium's official campaign transplanting "Call of Cthulhu" into the Victorian era. He offers details on the differences from a 1920s campaign, both in terms of rules and historical background, with great advice on some of the unique quirks of the specialized gaslight skills.
If you aren't following him already you should add him to your viewing list. He's consistently one of the best sources of "Call of Cthulhu" information on YouTube.
Jason McKittrick dives deep into the Special Collections at Miskatonic University to bring us this intriguing "Innsmouth Relic".
"Recovered from beneath the Gilman House, where crude tunnels wound through the foundations of Innsmouth and descended toward the sea. This framed artifact features a weathered marine cult relief, marked with strange glyphs, blue green patina, and barnacle growth from its long exposure to the depths below."
It's available for purchase starting at 6 PM Eastern tonight. Just click through to get all the details on Instagram.
I'm back! Everything went smoothly with my double bypass. I'm well on the way to full recovery, but it's going to be a while before my totally metal chest scar is completely healed.
Thank you all for the well wishes on my previous post. They were just what I needed.
Much to my surprise, I'm taking a temporary hiatus from Propnomicon. On Saturday I woke up, grabbed a shower, sat down for a delicious cup of fresh-brewed coffee, and suddenly experienced a feeling of intense pressure in my chest.
To make a long story short, I'm having bypass surgery tomorrow. Recuperation is going to take some time, and I won't have access to my computer for at least a week. Things should be back to normal after that.
One bit of good news- the long delayed Miskatonic Antarctic expedition package will finally happen. I've actually had all the items for years now, but kept putting it off. It seemed like I never had the time to handle taking orders, packaging everything, and taking care of shipping. Turns out, if you procrastinate too long you might get a reminder that the clock is still ticking.
Thank you all for your patronage and friendship. We'll talk soon.
