"A mountain walked or stumbled."
Few realise how massive Cthulhu was intended to be. This is well on the way to that scale, but the original ought to be a good ten or fifteen times larger.

This is a great interpretation of one of the fishiest monsters ever. Nice work

Thank you Mel, In all of the Lovecraft works that describe the Sleeping Cthulhu, none ever use the words 'Chubby' , 'Fat', 'Balloon' like, He is the sleeping dead God of a lost city...This captures Lovecraft so well.

One description does however mention the word "flabby", but that's in description of his claws.

Not bad I like the scale of him and how you make it look like he is part of the tortured mountain landscape. I just completed a Cthulhu drawing myself if you want a gander.

I see you place three future corpses or insane asylum inmates in the pic

Squidward: . . . lest ye incur . . . THE WRATH OF SQUIDWARD!
Patrick: I think they have a cream for that.
XD
Seriously, that is an awesome pic. One of the best I've seen, and I generally dislike Lovecraft-related stuff.

It's a perfect pic! Thanks so much!
As for the context of the pic, I like to think that it's right before the little people summon Hotei to fight Cthulhu with his ROCK!!!
...damn, that woulda been a cool pic too

As a long-time fan of both your work and of most things Lovecraft, this picture makes me feel all warm and fuzzy.
Seriously, as an HPL fan, I have to say thank you for not making it look like a boring old flabby dude with wings and an octopus head. I've seen far too many Cthulhus (Cthulhi? Cthulhoi? Cthulhae?) that looked like uninspired photoshops.
Did I mention I absolutely love the hunched pose and the glower in its eye?

I seriously dislike the 'fat and sassy' Cthulhu arts I see all the time. He's supposed to be a DEAD god, isn't he? Hence the sorta skeletal look and peeling skin and semi-coral looking bits on him. Also, extra eyes ftw.

I'm so glad you feel that way. 
Also, you can never have too many eyes on extradimensional horrors.
Your words, they are music to my ears. Like a distant piping...
OHNOEZ

Great stuff! I like the effect on the extra eyes and how small the humans are. Mmmh humans. Yum-yum!
