The idol with the baleful gaze
« on: January 15, 2007, 07:18:45 PM »


Who made this strange idol? What is its purpose? It fills all who see it with fear and loathing...

30mm tall, sculpted from Crayola "wet set" clay, painted with acrylic craft paint. The base coat is purple!

I hold the idol responsible for the cold and cough that plague our house. The idol demands offerings of beer and pretzels!

well don't bother waving it at me. I'm a man-sized lump of runny snot barely contained in a skin suit at the moment.  :(

2 hours, 15 minutes total, exactly the length of my daughter's afternoon nap.

If Rich asks, I was working on Under the Black Flag the whole time.

Treasure these idol moments.

;)

Nicely done, if... disturbing. But then again, I´m of the investigator ilk who burn ancient tomes of evil power instead of reading them, then burning the ashes once again, then sealing them in concrete and dumping them in the Marianas Trench. So pass me that jackhammer.

:lol:

I see someone has had a character survive a few games of Call of Cthulhu!

Well, it helps to burn the books. BURN THE BOOKS! Saves you the bullets needed to battle those SA goons in 1923´s Munich abattoirs. Yes, we had some damn disturbed Cthulhu games going back in the 90s, sir.

... his eye is kind of hypnotic...
"I'd like to send this letter to the Prussian consulate in Siam by aeromail. Am I too late for the 4:30 autogyro?"
"Uh, I better look in the manual... This book must be out of date. I don't see "Prussia", "Siam" or "autogyro"...
