Undead Plague Vial

Burned Raven Tales returns to our pages with this undead plague vial.  The rusted iron finish is absolutely perfect.

 

Dagon Cultist Altar

The talented George Tsougkouzidis returns to our pages with this Dagon cultist altar.  Just layer upon layer of squicky textures.  I can only imagine what a nightmare casting this is going to be.

 

Making Eyes

Allen Hopps of Stiltbeast Studios brings us this timely tutorial on making prop eyes using glass cabochons. The results are quite impressive. 

 

Hail to the King

Tvaristika brings us this awesome King in Yellow idol.  I love how it incorporates all the little details from the original book cover illustration by Robert W. Chambers.

 

Cthulhu Fhtagn! Marquez Edition.

This nicely done Cthulhu idol comes to us from Spanish artist Alberto Camargo Marquez.

 

Dragon Warrior

This fantastic dragon warrior LARP costume features armor by Arthammer LARP Workshop, and mask, gauntlets, and tail by La Lune Cramoisie.

 

Cthulhu Ring

 Armada Art and Jewels brings us the wax master for their custom Cthulhu ring.

 

Dwarven Helms

These gorgeous dwarven helmets come to us from Gold Mountain's Dwarves, a European LARP group that specializes in roleplaying Tolkien-inspired dwarves.

 

Italian artist Stefano Trevisan brings us this nicely done Cthulhu idol.  What makes it unusual is that this is a *bad* print.  The last picture below shows a relatively minor flaw in the deck of the pedestal.  It gives me faith that some artists still take craftsmanship seriously and won't accept sub-standard 3D work.

I'm looking at you, peddlers of crappy, striation covered prints.

 

Demonic

Madness FX brings us this creepy ensemble, featuring their demonic "Deceiver" mask and costuming by Chris Austin.

 

Fungal

This is horrific.  And by "horrific", I mean "awesome".  Alexie Andreev returns to our pages with this fungally infected corpse.   

Lich-Priest of Vecna

 This incredible Lich-Priest of Vecna costume comes to us from Mark Meer.  

 

The Old Gods

The talented George Tsougkouzidis returns to our pages with his latest piece, a plaque dedicated to the Old Gods.  As usual with his sculpts, the texture work is incredible.

 

Draco Inviolatus Fossil

This nifty little dragon fossil turned up in a twitter post while I was Googling for a halloween prop.  Unfortunately, the post didn't include any information on who actually created it. Following up on the information in the specimen tag lead me to The Sorcerer's Library site.  They helpfully identified James Brierly as the original sculptor.  It was just one of an entire series of collectibles, but it appears the line died out just after the turn of the century.  

 

Leather Tome

Alex Libris returns to our pages with another beautiful bit of tomecraft.  Featuring a hand-tooled leather cover with custom brass hardware and embossment.

 

Idol of the Great Old One

Concept Designer Michael Pedro created this faux-wooden "Great Old One" idol for the Lovecraftian short film "Breaking Lights".  Click through to check out some high resolution pictures of the piece.

 

 

Wee Old One

I'm always humbled to see what a genuinely skilled sculptor is capable of.  This work-in-progress Cthulhu idol from artist Alberto Camargo Márquez is about three inches high.  Click through and check out his gallery for a short video of him sculpting the piece.

 

The Pumpkin King

It's the most wonderful time of the year.  Dustin Drerup of Beastcraft Props celebrates the season with this gigantic pumpkin creature.

 

Mysterious Egg

 Dungeons and Curmudgeons has hatched a cunning plan:

#Egg for dinner? Nope. It’s going to be a little mystery the players find while searching the #dungeon. At some point they will hear sloppy eating noises emanating from a small room off a corridor they’re in.

When they look inside, they’ll find a couple of #goblins tucking into some weird looking eggs, eating them raw, yolks running down their greedy faces and smashed shells on the ground. The goblins (taken by surprise) will immediately drop the remains of their gooey snacks and grab for their weapons to attack the party.

After disposing of the goblins the party will see that the #eggs were taken from a small (now ruined) nest in one alcove of the dungeon wall and that one of the eggs remains intact! But nobody knows who or what kind of creature laid it. At this point I’ll hand one of the players the prop egg. Maybe they’ll keep it, maybe they’ll put it back. But what’s inside?

The finished prop egg is pretty cool.  Hopefully we'll get an update on how his players handle it.

 

Hail Slaanesh!

The Arthammer LARP Workshop brings us this ridiculously photogenic player wearing their Slaanesh armor set. 

 

Triple Play

 McCormick Wands returns to our pages with this beautiful trio of hand-carved wands.
