Tag As FavoriteComment		This is the middle illustration in my tryptich of work based on H.P. Lovecraft's short stories. This is Nyarlathotep, who generally appears in the fiction as a featureless black man who absorbs all light. This is one of my most computer-worked pieces to date. I began with a painting in acrylic, and heavily modified the work in Phot

Nice! Kinda remins me of the covers of the Sandman comic, though, but maybe it's just the colouring and texture.

Hmm, I never imagined Nyarlathotep in horizontal position before 10 .... Lovecraft chills, I tells ya. Amazing work, it seems so familiar, i cant seem to put my finger on it. The background and the atmosphere are wonderful, you really do capture the eerie feel of a Lovecraft tale. Kudos! I'd love to see more (as would everyone else).

Regards,
Scorpius Raven Drakes.
