He’s done at long last!  The Dreaded Cthulhu!!!

Actually he didn’t take that long to make, I had just spread it out over time.  The idea came from Martin, my bro-in-law (who just so happens to create wicked comics called Foreign Matter) when we had done a Skype call and I showed him something I had just finished felting.  I think he suggested Cthulhu as a joke, but once I looked up the pictures it was a challenge I couldn’t pass up!

For those of you that don’t know anything about Cthulhu, here’s a bit of info for you: Cthulhu is a fictional cosmic entity created by H.P. Lovecraft, and he’s apparently the source of constant anxiety for mankind at a subconscious level; He’s part Octopus, Dragon, and Human and to even look upon his form may cost you your sanity!  Cthulhu had once ruled the Earth, and apparently will do so again.  Ooooooo, scary!

Anyways, like I said it’s been a while since I started my creation so I think Martin’s forgotten all about it, so I’m going to surprise him with the finished product when he comes to visit this month.  Surprise!  An evil Cthulhu just for you Marty!

I so love felting, I can make pretty much anything!
