Wilbur Whately

 

It was partly human, beyond a doubt, with very man-like hands and head, and the goatish, chinless face had the stamp of the Whateleys upon it. But the torso and lower parts of the body were teratologically fabulous, so that only generous clothing could ever have enabled it to walk on earth unchallenged or uneradicated.

- H.P. Lovecraft, The Dunwich Horror 

This incredible sculpt of Wilbur Whately from Lovecraft's "The Dunwich Horror" comes to us from professional motion picture makeup artist and designer Joel Harlow.  I'd love to see this maquette translated into a CGI creature.
