Last week I had the pleasure of playing the Call of Cthulhu Roleplaying Game with some friends. Although I love Lovecraft and enjoy roleplaying, I’d never had a chance to play this before. I had a lot of fun. My character was Professor Artemus Dandridge, professor of Esoteric Studies at Miskatonic University. Apart from being quite intelligent he was a complete CHUD! In the “appearance” ranking of the game an average physical appearance is a 10… the good professor was a 5. I did a quick sketch on my character sheet to illustrate his features to my fellow players, but this week I did a proper illustration. The stars above him are the Pleiades, which factored heavily in the one-shot game we were playing.
Additionally, I saw on Twitter yesterday that it was “International Draw a T-Rex Day.” I have no idea if such a day actually exists in any capacity, but that was enough excuse for me. I did this quick 15 minute sketch. The perspective on the head is a bit off, but it came out much better than I’d expected, so I’m happy.
