This one's from 2005, and Fantasy Flight Game's Call of Cthulhu CCG. It's an aspect of Nyarathotep in one of his more inhuman and unknowable guises... perhaps even his natural state?

This was a last-minute addition to the set, so they called me in to do it fast, and it ended up being used for box art and also on the CoC web site as the top banner for a couple of years.

I've gotten a lot of these quick turnaround jobs over the years! ;)

Nyathathotep has a thousand masks. Who knows which is his natural state, or if all of them are.

Hi and thanks! This was done mostly in Photoshop starting with a pencil sketch.

Hi,

Yes it's the regular Adobe Photoshop! It's all a matter of how you use it - there are a lot of Photoshop painting tutorials online, just takes a bit of practice.. (Well, a year or two, but it's no more difficult than any other skill.). Anyone can do it eventually!
