Here's another cover from the "Fall of Cthulhu" series from Boom! Studios. I did this about a year and a half ago I think. I was very happy with this one - it seemed to come about in a very effortless way. I did the sketch for approval in pen with no pencils, then I just drew the main ballerina character and painted over her for this final. The whole process was less than 8 hours. A good day's work. :)

Fall of Cthulhu issue 9 cover by ~PatrickMcEvoy An equally disturbing and sad illustration, strong emotions successfully conveyed to the viewer. ( Suggested by `suzaku009 and Featured by ^Thiefoworld )

Awesome. Alot of people don't do Lovecraft right. This is an exception. Never heard of the comic series ntil now, but it sparked my interest!

Thanks very much! Be sure to let me know what you think if you end up reading the series. I think the writer did a great job of bringing the Lovecraft horror into the present day.

Thanks! The series is a modern continuation of the Lovecraft mythos, and VERY creepy, too. Nyarlathotep is arraying terrifying forces for a war of the Gods, and as always the Gods and Old Ones use human proxies in horrible and unspeakable ways to further their agendas.

I really love this series! It tells a complete story over several volumes that you can get from Boom! studios. I did 7 covers for it - issues 6 - 10, 12 & 13. This issue 9 cover is also the cover for the Vol. 2 collection "The Gathering". But be sure to start with volume 1!
