Cthulhu Fhtagn! Byakkofield Edition.
Byakkofield brings us this hand-carved soapstone Cthulhu idol. I almost ignored it because I thought it was a chibi figure, but I realized the proportions were a result of the original stone block.
That is a good piece of work; I am greatly reminded of early Alaskan Native American soapstone figures as well as Paleolithic anthropomorphic figurines such as this these http://www.daysknob.com/JvE.htm by this figurine. I’m always happy to see props made in materials that are difficult to user or hard to obtain as it shows a high level dedication to the process.
Hi, I'm the one who carved this and thank you for featuring it on your website!
