Haven't been drawing much in the last few months but have managed to finish these cards that I'd pencilled a while ago.  

A couple of machine angels















Another Dex-Starr and a Mythos beastie

Lovecraft

It was HP Lovecrafts birthday this weekend so here is a Lovecraft trading card (didn't get time to colour it but I probably will eventually)

Gug - colour

Colour version of the Gug I did a while back - I wasn't very happy with the colours so put it aside for a while.

Nyarlathotep - colour

Colour version of the Nyarlathotep sketch I did some weeks ago

The Lurking Fear

A Lovecraft/comic film noir pastiche - the animation is a bit crude (but seeing it's one guy doing it, understandable) but the backgrounds are fantastic

The Lurking Fear Part Two

via Ectoplasmosis

The Statement of Randolph Carter

Adaptation of a Lovecraft short story - although the animation isn't particularly polished it works rather well.

Shuddering Sunday - Chthonian

Chthonian - the earthquake worms have always been one of my favourites.
.
"Flowing tentacles and pulpy gray-black, elongated sack of a body...no distinguishing features at all other than the reaching, groping tentacles. Or was there—yes—a lump in the upper body of the thing...a container of sorts for the brain, basal ganglia, or whichever diseased organ governed this horror's loathsome life!"
—Brian Lumley, The Burrowers Beneath

Migo, the Fungi from Yuggoth complete with Brain Cases - this sketch needs fixing as the hind ermm... legs of the Migo should be larger and stronger and the brain cylinders are incorrect too. Should have read the description in "The Whisperer in Darkness" before I drew this.

Chaotic Cthursday - Shub-Niggurath

Shub Niggurath for Louise

I usually do a bit of web search before I draw things just to clarify what they are supposed to look like and sometimes you end up finding gems
Propnomicon is a site dedicate to making Cthulian props (for Live action roleplay I assume) - like the HPL Historical Society some of the props are amazing detailed. It inspired me to give an old book page a go for this illo.
I was too lazy to "age" the paper myself so used a couple of the paper textures available on the net. I was a bit headachy due to moving furniture around most of the day, so the insane scribblings weren't too hard to do.

Writhing Wednesday - The Great Race of Yith

The Great Race of Yith for JB
"The members of the race took over the bodies of a dormant cone shaped beings. These beings were immense rugose cones ten feet high, and with head and other organs attached to foot-thick distensible limbs spreading from the apexes. They spoke by clicking or scraping huge paws or claws attached to the end of two of their four limbs, and walked by the expansion and contraction of a viscous layer attached to their vast, ten-foot base".

Ooooh - creepy puppet Yithian

Tenticular Tuesday - Cthulhu

From the depths of his bath in great R'lyeh
Dread Cthulhu arises.....

A Cthulhu for Nik (drawn yesterday and coloured today).



Cyaegha - Great Old One

Mythos Monday - Gug

"It was a paw, fully two feet and a half across, and equipped with formidable talons. After it came another paw, and after that a great black-furred arm to which both of the paws were attached by short forearms. Then two pink eyes shone, and the head of the awakened gug sentry, large as a barrel, wabbled into view. The eyes jutted two inches from each side, shaded by bony protuberances overgrown with coarse hairs. But the head was chiefly terrible because of the mouth. That mouth had great yellow fangs and ran from the top to the bottom of the head, opening vertically instead of horizontally."
—H. P. Lovecraft, The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath

Drew this Sunday night but was too lazy to go scan it in.

Drawing Day 2010

Here's a quick sketch of Mouse, who realised I was looking at her sleep and came and started rubbing against my drawing folder - very helpful.


Gave myself until the end of the "War of the Worlds - The Coming of the Martians" CD to draw something resembling a Martian war machine.I seem to be drawing off the ends of the paper at the moment so had to knit two pages together to make it fit.


An Elder Thing for John - damn I went off the ends of the paper again! This took one and a half Rammstein albums.
Also here is a fantastic depiction of an Elder Thing and an Elder Thing Papercraft I found when I was checking out what they were supposed to look like.
