"In an instant every moving entity was electrified; and forming at once into a ceremonial procession, the nightmare horde slithered away in quest of the sound—goat, satyr, and aegipan, incubus, succuba, and lemur, twisted toad and shapeless elemental, dog-faced howler and silent strutter in darkness—all led by the abominable naked phosphorescent thing that had squatted on the carved golden throne, and that now strode insolently bearing in its arms the glassy-eyed corpse of the corpulent old man."
H.P. Lovecraft, The Horror At Red HookThis passage from The Horror At Red Hook is one of my favorites in all of HPL's oeuvre. It's just a bonkers cavalcade of monsters.
Again, I kept my original design, more or less intact but I fixed some of the anatomy and simplified the lifework. I also really tightened up the color/rendering.
