From "Fungi from Yuggoth" and "The Dream Quest of Unknown Kadath":

"Out of what crypt they crawl, I cannot tell,
But every night I see the rubbery things,
Black, horned, and slender, with membraneous wings,
And tails that bear the bifid barb of hell.
They come in legions on the north wind’s swell,
With obscene clutch that titillates and stings,
Snatching me off on monstrous voyagings
To grey worlds hidden deep in nightmare’s well.

Over the jagged peaks of Thok they sweep,
Heedless of all the cries I try to make,
And down the nether pits to that foul lake
Where the puffed shoggoths splash in doubtful sleep.
But oh! If only they would make some sound,
Or wear a face where faces should be found!"

These monsters were taken by Lovecraft directly from his childhood nightmares.

I tried a new way of shading- using two light sorces at extreme angles. This way the creature would appear black but have a well defined shape. Please leave feedback, I'd love to hear it.
