one of the most interesting renderings of this all-too-exploited subject matter.

Thank you.

I like how you've incorporated once again the correlating animal's anatomy into C'thulu's design. I like the extension of the fingers and the contour of the thigh and calf, as well as the reflection and contrast of the eye. Although unbalanced, there is an interesting use of negative space to depict more of a void or emptiness, but the sensation of not being too far away.
Will you being doing anymore illustrations of C'thulu?

~Dragon-Bat Mar 28, 2011 General Artist

Thanks again!, and yes actually, I plan on eventually doing many more pieces based on the Lovecraft Mythos.
