And here's the Cthulhu figure for Wizkids' new game, HorrorClix. The wings make him nearly as tall as The Spectre, and he's hefty, but mostly he's just creepy.

Great grey owl with his catch - a vole.
I watched and followed this big guy for over an hour as he moved from tree clump to tree clump hunting and I was lucky enough to get to witness him successfully catch and devour this vole. So thrilling!
Saw an image similar to this a while back - cant remember where - but eitherway it inspired me to take this. +7 "rejects" in the comments.
This guy was in the middle of a moment, he stood very still for quite some time, he wasn't on the phone, didn't seem to waiting for anyone or anything. It reminded of why I had to stop wearing suits.
Bank restriction note
Mock banknote by George Cruikshank (1792-1878), UK, 1819
In 1818 while walking down Ludgate Hill in London, George Cruikshank saw two women hanging from the gallows for forging banknotes. Cruikshank's response was a gruesome parody of a banknote showing Britannia devouring infants and the pound symbol as the hangman's noose, while the cashier's signature is replaced by 'J[ack] Ketch', a notoriously incompetent executioner of the 17th century. Cruikshank and his publisher earned about £700, a fortune at the time, from this venture.

Part of I object: Ian Hislop's search for dissent
(September 2018 – January 2019)
A wide variety of objects are on display in the exhibition – from graffiti on a Babylonian brick to a banknote with hidden rude words, from satirical Turkish shadow puppets to a recently acquired ‘pussy’ hat worn on a women’s march. See what tales these objects tell – sometimes deadly serious, often humorous, always with conviction. Unlock the messages and symbols these people used, and get closer to understanding them...
This history in 100(ish) objects shows that people have always challenged and undermined orthodox views in order to enable change. They even did so despite the establishment usually taking a pretty dim view – for most of history you could expect a gruesome punishment, up to and including death, for this kind of subversive behaviour. This suggests that maybe we are programmed to dissent – it’s just part of who we are. Ultimately, the exhibition will show that questioning authority, registering protest and generally objecting are an integral part of what makes us human.

Freckled Eel eating the shell and all of a Horn-eyed Ghost Crab. The Eel was hunting in a tidal pool and ambushed this Crab from behind.

Imagine that the blue ball in the Earth and imagine that Roxy is some giant space creature that goes from solar system to solar system devouring planets.
That's what Roxy's imagining. Honest, I can see it in her eyes.
Finished this a while ago but never had the chance to post it. The poem is 'A Memory Of the Players In a Mirror at Midnight' by James Joyce.
They mouth love's language. Gnash
The thirteen teeth
Your lean jaws grin with. Lash
Your itch and quailing, nude greed of the flesh.
Love’s breath in you is stale, worded or sung,
As sour as cat's breath,
Harsh of tongue.
This grey that stares
Lies not, stark skin and bone.
Leave greasy lips their kissing. None
Will choose her what you see to mouth upon.
Dire hunger holds his hour.
Pluck forth your heart, saltblood, a fruit of tears:
Pluck and devour!
The artist William Webster Hawkins made this sketch of himself in a room at Abbott's accommodation house, Featherston (in the Wairarapa) around 1867. He notes that he would have been ‘devoured alive’ had he not been quick in dressing, and vows ‘not to stay there the night again if I can help it’.

I've had some luck with the Kestrels lately. The position/light isn't as good as my last experience. The sign was blocking the sun, but it's incredible to watch these raptors devour a vole.
Although they are much smaller than their larger cousins, these Devourers drink the fluids from their victims.

The wolf Skoll will finally devour the sun, and his brother Hati will eat the moon, plunging the earth [into] darkness. The stars will vanish from the sky. The cock Fjalar will crow to the giants and the golden cock Gullinkambi will crow to the gods. A third cock will raise the dead.
The earth will shudder with earthquakes, and every bond and fetter will burst, freeing the terrible wolf Fenrir. The sea will rear up because Jormungand, the Midgard Serpent, is twisting and writhing in fury as he makes his way toward the land. With every breath, Jormungand will stain the soil and the sky with his poison. The waves caused by the serpent's emerging will set free the ship Naglfar, and with the giant Hymir as their commander, the giants will sail towards the battlefield. From the realm of the dead a second ship will set sail, and this ship carries the inhabitants of hell, with Loki as their helmsman. The fire giants, led by the giant Surt, will leave Muspell in the south to join against the gods. Surt, carrying a sword that blazes like the sun itself, will scorch the earth.
Meanwhile, Heimdall will sound his horn, calling the sons of Odin and the heroes to the battlefield. From all the corners of the world, gods, giants, dwarves, demons and elves will ride towards the huge plain of Vigrid ("battle shaker") where the last battle will be fought. Odin will engage Fenrir in battle, and Thor will attack Jormungand. Thor will victorious, but the serpent's poison will gradually kill the god of thunder. Surt will seek out the swordless Freyr, who will quickly succumb to the giant. The one-handed Tyr will fight the monstrous hound Garm and they will kill each other. Loki and Heimdall, age-old enemies, will meet for a final time, and neither will survive their encounter. The fight between Odin and Fenrir will rage for a long time, but finally Fenrir will seize Odin and swallow him. Odin's son Vidar will at once leap towards the wolf and kill him with his bare hands, ripping the wolf's jaws apart.
Then Surt will fling fire in every direction. The nine worlds will burn, and friends and foes alike will perish. The earth will sink into the sea.
After the destruction, a new and idyllic world will arise from the sea and will be filled with abundant supplies. Some of the gods will survive, others will be reborn. Wickedness and misery will no longer exist and gods and men will live happily together. The descendants of Lif and Lifthrasir will inhabit this earth.
Abbie had been a hero to me; I had devoured his autobiography, Soon To be A Major Motion Picture and was inspired by Revolution for the Hell of It.
But I was by no means a radical, let alone a filmmaker.
With youthful zeal, I simply decided that Abbie should be in a film about his re-entry and his fiftieth birthday. And that I should make it.
Nancy Cohen’s film, My Dinner With Abbie Hoffman, was well received.
Most young filmmakers have chutzpah. The lucky ones also have inherited wealth. Filming isn’t cheap, even filming with video. Unlike Jack Kerouac’s On the Road, you can’t make a movie on toilet paper.
But alas I had no trust fund and no track record. What I did have, though, was a darling boyfriend whose parents were convinced that our joint venture would help their son make his mark in the media and they had only to lay out the seed money.
It was very little to them, but meant everything to us. It paid for the filming and then for a few years, we both worked at various jobs, until we could afford a proper edit.
The film was picked up instantly at the New York IFP Festival and suddenly we had another expense. We had to blow up the film from video to 16 mm and make prints as was required by the Berlin Film Festival. A small price to pay for the honor.
