I saw him in person at the Calgary expo. Very cool looking piece.

The Big C looks great, and I'm sure that $200.00 is a fair price considering your high manufacturing costs. 

However, I think he NEEDS a figure for size comparison in the photograph.  If I had not already known how big the piece is, I'd think he was only a few inches tall.

Great work, uncle Mike. 
In making your childhood fantasy come true, you are an inspiration to us all.

Good point Chick, we will try and get a size comparison shot up in the next few days...gearing up for another Con this weekend so, could be a few days before that photo is ready.

Until then...look at the base! Each skull is from a 25mil man!!! And he is still hungry!!!

I realized that as I was posting it last night.  Alas, I didn't think to take a size comparison shot, so this was the best I had to work with at the time.  At worst, I'll shoot a new one myself next week to replace this.

In addition to the skulls, consider that the base is about the size of a CD.

Really love him, but the costs are out of my league. But without a doubt the best one you've done and absolutely the best Cthulhu available. I'll sacrifice an extra goat this evening just for him.

I've held portions of the WIP for this beast when Uncle Mike came to Vancouver in March... This thing is really meaty.
Still it's not so big that you could never put it on the table and play with it.

Oh sure, and I just damn well spent almost that much yesterday for other projects. Though technically, I suppose 3 in the morning is actually today. :-X

Such rotten luck I have. :)

Have to say that is just amazing and the paint job is very nice as well.  Though for some odd reason i just imagined him a mix of reds and purples.

I was thinking blue and purpled flesh, myself.

My wife caught me looking at it the other day her first words were no.  I didn't need to say anymore than that  :'(
