In His House at R'lyeh Dead Cthulhu Waits Dreaming

It's turning into quite the week for unusual Cthulhu idols, and that's saying something.  This piece comes to us from filmmaker and graphic designer Rémy Gente.  The recreation of sunken R'lyeh is a really nice touch.  

 

Grimt Mask

This amazing Grimt Mask comes to us from sculptor Tomas Barcelo.  He's really captured the feel of something ancient and powerful.

 

 

Great Cthulhu

This intriguing Cthulhu idol cum incense burner comes to us from artist James Groman.  I expect reactions to the piece are going to be very polarized.  The sculpt is a bit too much of a caricature for my taste, a problem exacerbated by the garish paint job.  Subtle, it ain't.  That said, I imagine it would look quite nice with a patinated bronze or gunmetal finish.

 Hat tip to Gristle van Gorn for bringing it to my attention.

 

 

From the Alchemist's Repository

Props and Beyond returns to our pages with this Mirroring Dagger from their Alchemist's Repository prop set.

 

Scroll Case

El Marques LARP shop returns to our pages with this beautiful leather scroll case.  Featuring hand tooled leather and brass hardware.

 

 

The Key

This Zelda-inspired keystone prop comes to us from Norfair86.  Players in their tabletop game had to solve a series of puzzles to get each piece, and then assemble them to create a key into a hidden temple. 

Note:  For some unknown reason I'm having issues posting on Blogger.  Hopefully it will be resolved in the near future.

 

Lord of Demons

The talented Maarten Verhoeven returns to our pages with this digital Pazuzu idol.  It blew my mind, and made the movie even creepier, when I first found out the demon from "The Exorcist" wasn't made up out of whole cloth.  That's something you can discover with a simple Google search today, but back in the 70s it was an obscure factoid.
