Description
A little bit of Lovecraftian goodness to kick off the Halloween Season! Although this version is very true to Lovecraft's original description, I've also done several takes that depart radically from it. More on this later . . . .Related content

Awesome interpretation, i love how organic it looks, most other interpretations go for a boxy, synthetic look instead

Thank you very much for the kind word! I've never been a fan of those interpretations either, so, I tried to find a better design solution. Take care.

This is the MOST #$%&ING AWESOME version of this being I've yet seen! It blows even Wayne Douglas Barlowe's version out of the water. Truly inspired! Love to see this in color!

I wish you would do it. I'm just a joe schome, they probably wouldn't listen to me. :/ The pics so reminds me of Barlowe's Guide To Extraterrestrials.

Once again, many thanks. I don't know how Wayne Douglas Barlowe would feel about that, but I do know I feel very complimented!

Indeed i have!
Phineas Smedley's Master-PieceThe following is a harrowing tale, and despite its incredible nature, I swear to any reading that it is entirely factual. My time is limited, so I shall be necessarily brief and trim this account of any extraneous detail, which is much against my authorial nature. Such is my haste during this remarkable episode.
I came to this state following the events of the autumn of 1916, while reclining at ease in the parlor of a certain prosperous Inn and brew-house in the charming suburb of Parnum, an area I frequent although I own no property there. A boy entered and handed me a paper, which upon reading I learnt was a communication from Phineas Smedley, a friend of my father's with whom I was lightly acquainted. My family and his had not called upon one another in many years, after the death of his sainted mother, the incarceration of his distraught father, and the gradual lessening of his fame as a painter. In truth, he had become rather unpopular and even
It's just a short thing, one of several scattered mentions of the mysterious Smedley.
I also knocked this one out last week -- another one of our bizarro political works that, generally, only my best friend and i find funny.
The Volcanoes of North Georgia"You been in the Shed, boy? You been in there?"
"No, paw!" the little boy squealed, "I ain't been in there ever, since you said."
The father scowled as he towered over his shrinking son. Playing cards and puzzle pieces crunched under his heavy boots. "You sure, Addy? You damn sure?"
"Damn sure, paw! I ain't been!" Addy wailed.
The father started at the parroted curse word and thought he was being mocked. His rage rose, subsided, and then rose again as he stared at the quivering child. But the boy was fortunate; the sound of his mother's car came from the driveway, she was back from the Piggly-Wiggly with his cousins. They would have some treats for him, and he'd escaped a brutal lick from his father. His father had few rules, and the only one he enforced with absolute authority was -- no one enters the Shed, except him and those who had permission -- which meant Addy's cousin Coddy, Uncle Amus, and pretty much n
