    This :shock: MASSIVE :shock: (just about 12" tall and heavy) resin casting of John "skullbeast" Cherevka's sculpt of the Great Old One just landed on my doorstep with a thud... I'm in Cthulhu rapture right now....

    He needs some prep work, including seam scraping and a soapy scrubbing to remove the mold release residue, and then he'll be ready for paint. Here are some painted pictures of the beast from John's deviant art page (http://skullbeast.deviantart.com/gallery/, where you can also have a look at his other Lovecraftian works):

    He also threw in a freebie- one of these black resin Cthulhu fishes he makes!

    Amazing detail on this! Great pickup.

    So I assume that last one will go on your car?

    Well, not on our current car, which is on the way out; maybe on the next rig's bumper, though.... until then, it will go up somewhere in our kitchen. :D

    Wow, that Cthulhu fish is nicely done, too!
    Great shape.

    I don't know- I think it looks great that way... but I'm thinking it might also look incredible with a detailed/realistic paint up. However, I've got so many projects going that painting this guy will have to wait. For now, I'm just gonna clean/prep him, give him a coat of primer (flat black or grey), and put him on the shelf. I have plenty of time to think about how I'll approach his paint-up; I'll definitely post pics here when he's done!

    So I wrote Le Merde to ask if he would mind if I posted a photo with his WTWTA drawing that I made into a poster, he wrote me back and we had a nice little chat... In the end he asked for my address and told me he was going to send me something in the mail...
    Today I went out to get the mail and to my delight BOOOMMM!!!
    Those stamps are DOPE!
    [​IMG]
    He sent a WTWTA Booklet filled with all the artists that did the art for the vise magazine booklet, all of the postcards he put together for his shows...
    a super7 catalog...
    and best of all a MATTER CRUNCHER button!!!!
    Actually the best of all part was everything that came in the package... I can't pick just one thing.
    [​IMG]
    The fact that our generations, picasso's are taking the time to write us, and send us care packages is amazing...

    Cheers Mr. Kelly you sir are a gentleman among men

    Oh man, that Cthulhu is so amazing!!! I have been looking for a sweet statue for some time, so jealous. I think I actually prefer the unpainted version, as it shows the great sculpt detail.
