For those who like beastiaries here are a few links. There are other art books around, and some of these are desined as RPG supplements. Also one is in Italian but the pictures are way cool.
Thanks for the links… I used to have S. Peterson’s Field Guide! Love the art! I used to have a pull out from an RPG which was silhouette’s of different Mytho’s and their relative size to humans, I think the Gnole(?) made up the border of this two page pull out because it is like a worm (reminds me of Star Wars IV) and is, uh, ENORMOUS!
also thanks to others for posting the links and references to other bestiaries. I am always fascinated by attempts to render in full-on sustained visuals that which is only glimpsed in a non-Euclidean incursion and by those who have gone mad.
Hey guys! I’m Mike Bukowski and while I LOVE this poster and do indeed have a Lovecraft bestiary blog (www.yog-blogsoth.blogspot.com) I did not make this poster.

Michael Bukowski is a fine artist and has created many wonderful images of Lovecraftian beasties, that you can see on his website:

Matt, thank you. I always want to give credit, but this was sent to me by someone else and I didn’t know the artist.

That’s great, save ink is pricey, and that’s a LOT of black. And I’d like something bigger than 8.5×11. /sigh

I’d happily pay $20 for a 2’x3′ poster of this!

A great piece. Does anyone know if there is a source for the symbols for the various beasts or they were created by the artist.
