Weeble Wednesday: Nyarlathotep, the Crawling Chaos
Wednesday, September 15th, 2010
Nyarlathotep Weeble by Amy Crook
Adding another weeble to my depictions of the mythos of HP Lovecraft, I give you Nyarlathotep. He appears at least twice as a handsome, charismatic Pharaoh gathering armies for the Great Old Ones. He’s also known as the Crawling Chaos, and he shows up in a few other, less palatable forms, in other stories. I had fun drawing his creepy-crawly shadow, not to mention the sneaky monsterified details on his otherwise traditional costume.
Nyarlathotep, the Crawling Chaos, 5″x7″ pen, ink and Copic marker on paper.

Catty

Catty by Amy Crook
This piece was once described as looking like she was wearing a black rubber catsuit, though as the bronze has aged the patina’s gotten some flecks of blue-green verdigris on it that adds an unusual texture. She’s another of my little bronze people series, so the figure is about the size of a child’s doll. I always liked the way the lines of her body combined the lush, heart-shaped derriere with long, slender limbs and a smooth, featureless face to be both sensual and faintly creepy.
The person who bought it was kind enough to send me a better photo than the ones I had, since I wanted to post the whole series and not just the ones I had left.
Catty, approx. 12″ long cast bronze, sold.

Weeble Wednesday: Me!
Wednesday, August 25th, 2010
Amy Crook cartoon by Amy Crook
Last but not least of the six cartoons I did of a group of my friends, I bring you — me! I personally rather like being a weeble, it gives me lots of freedom to do things like make my hair even longer, and wear t-shirts I don’t actually own. I do, however, own the pyjama pants, and they are just as awesome as you think they are.
And no, I still won’t explain the bunny ears.

Weeble Wednesday: Delta

Weeble Delta by Amy Crook
Yet another of my friends who I weeble-ified, Delta’s got a weakness for blank books like many of us but she actually fills hers with regular journaling. She loves snakes as well, hence the t-shirt (she’s not-so-secretly a Slytherin at heart).
If you’re enjoying these weebles, remember that you, too, can be a cartoon for just $79.

Spelunking

Spelunking, joined view, by Amy Crook
Continuing the series of little bronze people, these two are taking a fairly standard position but using an alternate entry point. If I recall correctly, this is the figure that had a problem with the orifice in question closing up during casting. The shop tech was highly amused to watch me clamp her in a vice and drill her open with the big metal drill press. As a result the fit between them isn’t quite as close as some of the others, but it still works for them.

Spelunking, separated view, by Amy Crook
I’ve often considered continuing the series exploring other sexual paradigms, but the foundry I was using at the time has since closed. Perhaps one of these days my muse will demand I find a new way to create them. For now, there’s still one more couple and at least one more single figure to be posted before the series is done, and possibly more of the singles if I can dig up some good photos of the ones that were sold.

Weeble Wednesday: Isidore
Wednesday, August 4th, 2010
Weeble Isidore by Amy Crook
Yet another of my buddies, Isidore is wearing her Hufflepuff colors in her weeble. I went for an argyle sweater and saddle shoes to spiff up her simple jeans, and of course had to add in a book on one of her favorite subjects, the British royal family.
