Description

Remake of one of my old works. I was happy with the head quite a bit... but not with the rest. Therefore a remake had to be done and I am much  happier now with it's fluent, spiraling body.

The small, strange pipes playing monster is it's semi human servitor.


"It was white and pulpy, and drew its quaking bulk along the ground, worm- fashion. But it had wide flat tentacles, and fleshly feelers, and other adjuncts the use of which I am unable to explain. And it had a long proboscis which it curled and uncurled like an elephant's trunk. Its forty eyes, set in a horrific circle, were composed of thousands of facets of as many scintillant colors which changed and altered in never-ending transmutation. But through all interplay of hue and glint, they retained their evil intelligence – intelligence there was behind those flickering facets, not human nor yet bestial, but a nightborn demoniac intelligence such as men in dreams vaguely sense throbbing titanically in the black gulfs outside our material universe. In size the monster was mountainous; its bulk would have dwarfed a mastodon."
