This is one of the most original Cthulhu designs I've ever seen, very impressive in its alien-ness. The entire drawing is very atmospheric, with the miasma clouding the cyclopean buildings ... Lovecraft would approve, I think ...Β

I always have wondered how a person would depict the "unfathomable cyclopean architecture".
Are you familiar with "At the Mountains of Madness"?

Oh,"At the Mountains of Madness" is one of my favorite H.P.Lovecraft's novel. But it is so hard to paint Lovecraft's architecture. This is my result.

I'd say the composition on this one is better, Cthulhu seems more distant (and creepy) and the one random taller building in the other kind of breaks up the nice horizon line.

I think this oneΒ΄s better, because the lighting in the other one was a bit distracting.

Holy crap this is amazing O_o I love how sinister it looks, as well as how the buildings don't look like normal buildings... almost looks like an alien planet.

If my town was attacked by a rampaging monster I would want it to be that one.

This one is better. There's more of a scale/size thing going on. I dig it!

Brilliant painting and BEST incarnation of Cthulhu I have ever seen! (he looks positively alien AND has a form that is convincingly massive in itself!)

Thank you for your compliment

Believe me it was brilliant (taking the basics of Cthulhu's written appearance, and making it into something very new yet very highly appropriate and sinister. Not an easy thing to pull off)!

Regretably, I cannot say I've had the pleasure of reading the books you've mentioned. But I can still appreciate a brilliant picture when I see one! Outstanding job on this!

I enjoy horror stories so I'll be sure to look for it next time I stop by Barns and Nobel.

Oh, underworld that it. Great art and very darkness.

I like both of these. This one has more darkness in it, while the other has a little more realism, as far as lights & darks go.
