a Fist Full of Tentacles!
Hey Kids!
I keep forgetting to mention that I have been commissioned to design a Lovecraft themed tattoo, and by one of our regular blog participants (Hello, Matt!). Though this is actually not the first time my art has been translated to this medium, it's the first time I have been there from the design phase and considered the end product while designing it.
For those not familiar, this is the Yellow Sign, associated with none other than Hastur the Unspeakable. Say that three times quickly, I dare you.
As soon as I get a photo of the finished product, I'll be sure to share it. It's a very flattering commission to be asked to do!
On to Cthulhu....
I contemplated James' comment about the size of the claws for a while and came to the decision to web the fingers as well as slightly beef up the fingers and enlarge the claws themselves. I think it satisfies both ideas (keeping interesting lines as well as looking more powerful), I hope you agree!
I have also added detail to numerous tentacles. Have a look:
That's it for for now, I look forward to reading what people think.

That's gonna be a cool tat. It kind of reminds me of the Sarlaac and the pit of Carkoon.
While I didn't have any strong opinions on the hands previous, I do think the lastest set look good. They have the look of some power to them and the webbing helps remind one of an aquatic critter.
