The Eye of Magnus

This is cool.  The rather directly named 3D Cosplay Decor has a prop version of the Eye of Magnus from Skyrim that features internal illumination.

 

Baby Hellboy Skull

Spooky Jack returns with his latest osteoprop, this nifty baby Hellboy skull. On sale just in time for the holidays.

 

Vintage Mailing Tubes

Michael Stueber was kind enough to send over this video from historical re-enactor supplier VICO Expeditions, which specializes in reproducing vintage camping and expedition gear.  Their latest offering just happens to be of interest to classic-era Mythos prop makers- period accurate mailing tubes.  They were used from the early 20th century to the 1950s to post all sorts of small items that didn't warrant a full-sized box.

The tubes were relatively air and water tight, with a fastening mechanism that uses a thread to rip a glued paper ribbon that seals the tube during transit.  Mr. Stueber correctly surmised that it's exactly the kind of fascinating period details I love.  You can find a previous discussion of period packing materials over here.

 

Hail to the King

There's so much to like about this amazing King In Yellow costume from Valerie Plouffe at Feral Workshop.  It features completely custom embroidery and a hand-applied ochre edge tinting that really brings out the details.  

 

Sun Cross Amulet

Tyler McCormick of Wyrdcor returns to our pages with this Sun Cross amulet.  Hand-forged, and inset with a polished red garnet.

 

 

Dwemer Skeevaton

The Dwemer are famed for their automatons, metallic creations that continue to function long after their creators left the world.  Artist Andrei Pek brings us this recreation of the Clockwork Skeevaton from The Elder Scrolls Online.  

 

Classic Era Camping

James Bender of Waypoint Survival returns with another delve into historical fieldcraft.  This time he takes a look at a camp setup from the 1930s, the classic era of the Mythos.  I love seeing his collection of vintage equipment, including the surprisingly sophisticated "umbrella" tent.
