There's a need to get on with more Newhaven stuff, especially the major monsters. On that basis, had a go at painting up Cthulu and Tsuthoggua. My problem with these is that I'm never sure how to do - colour schemes I've tried in the past just never looked right.
This time, though, I'm actually happy with the results!

In the photos, Cthulu looks better than Tsuthoggua. |
|
Tsuthoggua looks better in 'life' - perhaps I should have turned the model to one side slightly? The figure is by RAFM. |
|
Virtually all a matter of layer upon layer drybrushed. Tsuthoggua is a difficult subject because of the fact that descriptions vary. A 'lazy' god, this one will probably not do much in the way of direct evil, but lots in the way of directed evil.

Not sure who made this figure - I thought it was RAFM but not in the RAFM catalogue. Doesn't seem to be Mirliton either. |
|
Probably (certainly?) the best known of Lovecraft's creatures, this one should definitely cause mayhem in it's own right - but this could mean the end of the world?

At the end of the day, the question is always going to be: 'Do you read Sutter Cane?'
Nice work... the Cthulhu is by Grenadier, now manufactured by Mirliton.
ReplyDeleteThanks - couldn't find it on the Mirliton website, found it now - listed as a 'Hell Beast'.
ReplyDeleteAh, very nasty....in a good way? LOL
ReplyDeleteIn a good evil way.
