Loving the quality of all the entries. Sadly I won't be able to enter this time because of time constraints.

LPC 15:GUG Sentry

It was a paw, fully two feet and a half across, and equipped with formidable talons. After it came another paw, and after that a great black-furred arm to which both of the paws were attached by short forearms. Then two pink eyes shone, and the head of the awakened gug sentry, large as a barrel, wabbled into view. The eyes jutted two inches from each side, shaded by bony protuberances overgrown with coarse hairs. But the head was chiefly terrible because of the mouth. That mouth had great yellow fangs and ran from the top to the bottom of the head, opening vertically instead of horizontally.

LPC 16: Scrawny One / Hooded One. Blind Beggar Miniatures

The first word that came to him was scrawny. Which is a peculiar word to apply to something not of our flesh, nor shaped in any way conceivable to us; but there was something in what passed for its eyes that told of endless deprivation, insufficiency, hunger.

The Scrawny One by Anthony Boucher, Weird Tales, May 1949

LPC 17: Here's my attempt a conglomerate, a la Herbert West;
 "Still more shocking were the products of some of the experiments - grisly masses of flesh that had been dead, but that West had waked into a blind, brainless, nauseous animation."

LPC 18: Ghoul. My modest contribution, clearly I need bigger monsters.  Some straight up Uncle Mike's from my mostly unpainted SA collection.

I think even if it is the same, variety and styles are always a plus to see!
