Now that's a tough one!

Lovely figures beautifully painted

Like the weapon swap on the big guy Thant

And Dolmot we need a mini company role call (esp for the guy in suit, though I'm guessing conversion and the one with walking sticks is that dar mariner?)

... the choice of color of the ... cthullhu...ian squig-head is brilliant! However, the beige-violett scaler did it for me!

Very nice collections from both of you.  I have a soft spot for reptilians and all things fishmen.

Both seriously nice entries!

Who makes the various Cthulhian beasties? I don't actually recognize any of them!

I'm especially taken with the black-robed mass of tentacles on crutches and the dapper cthulhoid chap sporting tentacles and a vest.

Cheers all!

Nice work Dolmot - I'm in serious danger of being lured into the creepy world of Cthulhu with all these fishy going's on!

That was a Frothers Sculpting Competition figure from a couple of year ago.

Phew, that was tricky to compile on a tablet. I'm in a distant lands, known by the locals as "Canada" (eh).

And I see the legend of cold-blooded killers lives on. See related topics.  ;)

I really like both these entries.

Shallow Ones is very clever, neat details, beautiful painting. I have almost the entire RAFM Cthulhu range and am being tempted into further ranges now...
a mixture of quick parts, sarcastic humour, reserve, and caprice.

...who had a tentacle so squamous he could...

Forget it. There is absolutely nothing good coming out of even attempting to complete that.
