The Fenris Cthulhu is my favourite of the ones produced so far.

First of the minis from the boxed set, the cultist. Every faction (there are four in the game, one for each of the Great Old Ones Cthulhu, Nyarlathotep, Hastur and Shub Niggurath) gets a handful of these as well as their own unique mythos monsters...

Really loved the Cthulhu sculpt but I didn't liked the Nyarlathotep legs/tentacles. I hope it´s not the final version.It looks like some rumba dancer...

First test cast of Cthulhu himself, centrepiece mini for the boardgame, over 200mm tall...

Not the worst Cthulhu I've seen lately 8)

All the same, the wings are oversized for being "rudimentary" and I don't get why He has membranes between the toes either. Won't talk size since it must be radically downplayed in any but the very smallest scales anyhow.

Have no particular problem with Nyarlathotep's "rumba dancer" tentacles however.

Fantastic Cthulhu. I really like the wings...the sculpt really needs it. With smaller wings the sculpt itself would lack balance. So great job. Can't wait to back this one on Kickstarter 8)

Like it a lot and the fact the wings are bigger adds a lot to the look for me.

The Cthulhu's size can be a bit problematic, but with 20 cm, that is huge and I'd believe this picture doesn't show its size too well. What I am missing is a fat belly, but well, it shows how we all expect different things. The pose is amazing...is that a wave splash on the rocks?

I also kinda like the black goat, very unique concept. How large will that one be?

Yup. Size was an issue we dealt with as best we could while still having a model that would fit into a box and be produceable at a reasonable cost alongside 60+ other miniatures...

She's about 120mm to the top of the tallest tentacle. Have got pics....can't share them yet  ;D
