Be honest is this embarrassing of me

[jevdev-art]

I know I'm a little bit late but welcome to my entry of this year's inktober!

It's the first time when I'm trying to hop on that tend so I'M KINDA HOPING I WILL NOT LOSE INTEREST TOO SOON, BUT OH WELL, WE'LL SEE HOW IT'LL END UP!

First phrase is crystal and that automatically made me think about Cthulhu's mate - Idh-yaa. Even though on lovecraft wiki there isn't that much info about her I headcon her as a girlboss (just like Shub-Niggurath) and a woman that Cthulhu would simp really hard for (haha, cuz you know, CTHULHU MALE WIFE AM I RIGHT???). Me and @notshounenprot have actually pretty hot human design for her as well, but as I wanted to do in this inktober eldritch forms of gods only, you have to wait some time before you'll see that one. I hope when I'll release it y'all like her!

Hastur: I mean, they were historically common until recently.

Shub-Niggurath: Historically recently?

Yog-Sothoth: Are we still talking about anvils?

Hastur: Yes, where did all the anvils go? They were featured prominently in every movie Western, so where did they all go?

Nug: Is there some secret anvil storage facility the government is keeping from us?

Tsathoggua: Or they fell into disuse with the advent of other technologies and so they melted them down and they're gone.

Yeb: But they're not supposed to melt! They're made to withstand the red-hot hammer of the town blacksmith.

Idh-yaa: This is easily the most pointless conversation we've ever had.

INKTOBER2017 #10 - Idh-Yaa, the Mighty Mother

Idh-Yaa is a powerful and androgynous cosmic entity, which resides on an unnamed planed in the twin-star system of Xoth. It’s form is never described, not even if the darkest and most forgotten of apocrypha, and yet we can find some of its form in the progeny brought to existence from Idh-Yaa mating with the mighty Cthulhu. Their children vary to great degree, each pretty repugnant to behold to a various degree, but you can see most of his mother in the dreaded Ghatanothoa. Idh-Yaa is a mystery to most, unknown and lost in the annals of history as it seems that she never left the system of Xoth, remaining there to this day…

I am not too happy with how she turned out. The sketch was fine for me, but then she turned out a pretty cartoonish, jovial and well overdone in some silly details. I will surely try again to make her even more sinuous and slithery, but also give her a proper sense of gigantic scale in another drawing. Still, finished is better than perfect ;)

Hey my lovely followers - which Lovecraftian beast, god or being should I try next?
