Cthulhu Fhtagn! Mellies Edition

The very talented Florian Mellies created both the Cthulhu idol and arcane tablet pictured below. When I first saw it I thought the idol was a small model photoshopped into the picture. Nope, it's full-sized. Which I think makes it the second largest Cthulhu idol ever created, behind the 7' concrete lawn sculpture that I occasionally find pictures of on the net.* The Mellies Cthulhu would get bumped down to the third spot if one counts the giant inflatable Cthulhu created by the Rev. Marx as an "idol".



* And which I can't seem to find a picture of right now.

  1. Are you counting the five-feet-high Cthulhu wall sculpture by Keith Burruss, which you featured here back on March 27, 2010?

  2. @ Raven

    That would indeed take the number two spot.

    Sweet Jebus, I *write* all these entries and even I don't remember them as well as you do. Heh.

  3. Well, yes, that would be *why* I remember half-year-old entries better than you -- you're too busy writing *new* entries, and finding or creating new props to write new entries *about*.

  4. The 7.5-foot Cthulhu lawn sculpture is shown here, by the way, apparently a reprint from SciFiWIRE.
