Leviathan Monster

I was doing a search for Lovecraft in Ebay this morning and found this weird little statue someone in the UK is selling.  It actually comes pretty close to my own vision of the creature in the upstairs room of the old antique shop.  Anyone else see what I mean?

That's about the cutest Cthulhu I've seen since the plushy version.

I've always envisioned Jeb's "other side" as being more or less the same as Wilbur Whately's "brother" in HPL's "The Dunwich Horror." Not unlike this:

I think those little boys were a lot scarier.

Oooo, wicked little tumor-esque rendition Mark - works for me!

Agree with you about those weird little boys too Raineypark. Hee hee.

  I always imagined the Leviathan to have serpent-like characteristics due to the omnipresent Naga symbol the Leviathans revere.  The symbol is constantly referred to during the Leviathan sequence.  The Leviathan must also have appendages like feet and possibly hands because it leaves footprints and can open doors.  Additionally, the Leviathan monster is so visually horrifying that anyone who sees it will potentially go mad.  Therefore, I imagine the Leviathan monster as a disturbingly hideous Lovecraftian being with snake-like characteristics (for example a bunch of snake-heads writhing in its mouth?) who has a somewhat humanoid form.

  At some point, I'm hoping to get an artist friend of mine to draw an interpretation of the Leviathan.  I'll post it when/if he ever draws the true fetid form of that "insufferable pig" Jebez Hawkes!
