I think this is the most accurate drawing of an elder thing that i have ever seen.

Most of your work requires gallons of brain bleach to handle.

I know that's the intent. I was being slightly sarcastic. Most of your work is based off of h.p. lovecraft and his work. Lovecraft's work requires an ocean of brain bleach but there's a monster probably in the bleach-ocean that eats children or something.

Eh Lovecraft, Doom 3, Warhammer, Silent Hill, and a few other things I can't think of at the moment

Probably one of the most dynamic drawings of an Elder Thing I've seen recently.

In At the Mountains of Madness, the Elder Things were presented as a metaphor for the direction humanity was headed, and were spoken of as "mere scientists, much like we were" who awoke from their ancient slumber and escaped to their pre-determined rendezvous site, only to find "terror and madness" at the hands of the shoggoths, who'd long ago destroyed the last of the survivors.

Oh I understood the metaphor, and weren't there some surviving Elder Things the scientists who unintentionaly revived them?

Yeah, they revived, dissected the scientists out of curiosity, then attempted to open the gateway to the inner Earth, where their kind had fled long ago, only to find that the shoggoths had broken into it ages ago and had eaten all the other survivors; the narrator, of course, relates this, putting himself in their shoes, imagining what he might have thought after awakening to mysterious creatures prodding at his body, then fighting them off, escaping to what he imagined to be a safe place, only to find nothing but terror and madness waiting for him.

I can see that, it also mentions that one of the main scientists saw something that wasn't a Shoggoth or an Elder Thing but something far worse

Stinks that it was never explained what the guy saw that drove him mad
