The talented Yeray Llinares returns to our pages with this excellent Cthulhu idol.
Update: An anonymous commenter has accused Mr. Llinares of plagiarizing the work of fellow Mythos artist Yoneyama Keisuke. As evidence, they provided a link to his Cthulhu sculpt posted on Instagram back in 2018. I've posted the best side-by-side comparison I can manage below. Just click through on the link to see the comparison in higher resolution. I've made Mr. Llinares aware of the accusation on his own Instagram post.
Update II: Mr. Llinares contacted me directly and explained he created the sculpt years ago using a reference photo from Pinterest. He's pulled the original post and followed up with an acknowledgement he was inspired by Mr. Keisuke's work.

That's not his original design - he plagiarized it from Yoneyama Keisuke, who first posted his in 2018: https://www.instagram.com/p/Bel1NFOnAOd/?img_index=1
@Anonymous Thank you for bringing this to my attention.
