Weeble Wednesday: Hound of Tindalos

Weeble Hound of Tindalos by Amy Crook
I’ve colored my second-to-last monster from the Cthulhu Coloring Book (though there’s also one bonus zombie left)! This is the Hound of Tindalos, a Lovecraft creation who is said to stalk time travelers like a hound once it gets their scent. He can appear anywhere there is an angle of less than 120 degrees, and here he’s slipping out of a corner to play fetch with you! Clearly you would never do something so naughty as to time travel, so you have nothing to fear from this gruesomely cute beast.
If you play Arkham Horror, you already know about this guy — he’s always one of the monsters that gets an unhappy groan when he appears out of the monster cup in our group.

Another busy weekend — I did a ton of art yesterday, actually, but none of it was really art post material yet. Oops? Anyway, here’s yet more doodles done for kind purchases of the Cthulhu Coloring Book.

For most of the buyers of my Cthulhu Coloring Book, I’ve had time to put a little 5-minute sketch in the inside front covers. I remembered to scan most of the doodles before mailing them, so here they are for your to enjoy!

Zombie: Wait Up!

Zombie: Wait Up! by Amy Crook
This cheerful guy is one of the bonus zombies in my Cthulhu Coloring Book — I think he’s a little stuck and wants his zombie pals to wait up while he finishes struggling his way up out of the grave in search for delicious, tasty brains.
I’ve colored him here with a ghoulish green, though I think he’d do just fine in deathly grey or a rotting pink, as well. One nice thing about this one was that the style was so loose and scribbly, it was easy to color without worrying too much about staying inside the lines.

Weeble Wednesday: Cthulhu has a Coloring Book!
Wednesday, October 27th, 2010
Cthulhu Coloring Book by Amy Crook
Encouraged by the success of my Lovecraft-themed greeting cards on Etsy, I decided to up the ante this season and make a whole coloring book! There’s a few weebles you’ve already seen, and a bunch you haven’t — I even did a whole new Cthulhu for the cover (plus he’s on page 1 for your coloring pleasure).
There’s a whole bunch of adorably creepy creatures from the stories of HP Lovecraft and the other authors who’ve played in his Mythos over the years, plus a small mob of bonus Zombies.
You can get the Cthulhu Coloring Book on Etsy, either as a pdf or a printed book.

Weeble Wednesday: Dagon
Wednesday, October 6th, 2010
Weeble Dagon by Amy Crook
Today I’ve got another of HP Lovecraft’s creations, made into a creepy-adorable weeble. Dagon has his very own eponymous short story, but he also is alluded to in “Shadows Over Innsmouth,” the short story from which I illustrated a fishy Deep One earlier in the year.
Lovecraft had a real horror of all things fishy and oceanic, and it shows in the tentacled, scaley (and often quite overblown) descriptions he gave in his stories. I’ve tried to mix the macabre with the cute in my depictions, and I’ve had a lot of fun choosing which creature to cartoon next.
I’ll be adding him to my series of Lovecraftian Greeting Cards on Etsy as well, which are perfect for this spooky season.
