Cthulhu Cthursday: Another Day Down The Mines
Posted by Qais Fulton
Beady eyed tentacular demi-gods lying in wait to dole out sanity-rending punishment? Sacrificial rite requests in triplicate signed in blood? The horrified expressions of coworkers as the last of their will to live leaves them? It’s all just another day in the office.

God speed my friend, with any luck you’ll be eaten first.

I just shot the guy an email asking if he’d release this piece in desktop size. I’d love to run it both at home and at work.
My Portal wallpapers, while awesome, are starting to get long in the tooth.

Fantastic! Calls to mind my recent reading of Resume with Monsters.

Thanks for featuring my art! I always thought it would be an appropriate choce for Cthulhu Cthursday! Folks might appreciate seeing a detail of the phone list that’s on the wall behind his elbow. Enjoy:

Oh, and at Oni’s request, I will try to get a desktop-sized version up on my site this weekend.
And yes, ‘Resume with Monsters’ was an influence (although unfortunately, my job at the time was a bigger one!)

The phone list was epic!

Thanks, Oni. As I promised, I’ve updated my web site with desktop images of ‘Wage Slave.’ You can find them at http://www.michaeldashow.com/downloads.html
Enjoy, all!
