Cthulhu Specimen Redux

A classic from the days of ToM (R.I.P.), the Cthulhu Specimen Case from deviantARTIST alexcf is really quite an impressive piece. Indeed, so impressive that his revisit of it was recently sold on ebay for close to a thousand dollars. The description reads, in part: “June, 1893. a gnarled ancient city built upon a small land mass is discovered many miles off the coast of South America, risen from its darkened tomb on the arc of a tectonic shift. The striations of charred stone lift spiderlike from the ocean, as if gasping for breath, and the crew of the Nostromo stand silent upon the deck, speechless, in awe of this marvel of insanity, the cyclopean monstrosity, built millions of years ago - R’lyeh, tomb fortress of the old god; Cthulhu. the crew leave, beg the scientists to follow, but to no avail. the scientists ask for lifeboats to be left for them. The Nostromo sets sail, sullen faces watch as those left behind descend into the depths of R’lyeh, never to be seen again. A life boat is found many months later, tar sealed creates containing heavily documented samples, this sample box being one of these.”

Dermotographia

Ariana Page Russel suffers from a condition called dermotographia, which causes her body to exhibit extreme hypersensitivity via an immune response. Any time Ariana’s skin is lightly scratched or irritated hives and welts spring up in the irritated area, usually lasting around a half hour. Where some might find this an annoyance to be dealt with or ignored, Ariana utilizes her condition as an artistic medium, scratching patterns and writing into her skin, then photographing the often beautiful result. Ariana Page Russel, by dint of her innovative creativity.
