Cthulhu
This is a 4cm x 4cm ink drawing of Cthulhu, a Great Old One, from the tales of H.P. Lovecraft, a prominent American horror writer of the 1930s.
I used a 2B pencil to draw the outline and I used Artline and Faber-Castell pigment ink pens after.
Cthulhu is not technically a monster. It is an old alien God which is beyond the comprehension of humans. Yet, insane cultists worship it.

cool & scary illo...interesting story...it looks like he has a bit of elephant heritage monster or not.
this is a great drawing Chaung! HP Lovecraft. Didn't he write Necronomicon? I remember having that book and ended up giving it to someone who was just begining his devil worship hobbies. :)
Wicked Chuang. Man you should have posted this at Illo Friday. There's still time.
That's a very coool monster!! Love the skin texture!
He looks like a mutated elephant gargoyle! What a ceature! Your treatment of his skin makes him look very ancient indeed.
Nice! Looks just like I would imagine. Great illo.

I know a good dermatologist Chthulu could visit.
Thanks Carla. I think there are people who draw a very menacing Cthulhu.
Thank you Unknown. I try.
