Unnamable

Ok, the Unnamable by H.P Lovecraft.

Some of the first descriptions of the unnamable came across as a mix of goat/faun, and gorilla, so I ran with that:


Then I went with a bit more of a deformed look - melted skin and horns and stuff. Not so fictitious. There were heaps of references to a "blemish", so I really tried to make it as visual as I could - half his face melted off? Sounds like a blemish to me.




Werewolves were pretty popular back then, so I tried that out too:

I went for a big scar on this one (again, referencing the blemish). Also tried to make the face beast-like, as people refered to it as more beast than human.


Bats, along with werewolves, also got a bit of hype back in the day, so I figured I'd give that a shot too. All going for the beastlike shape.

And, finally, just for giggles:
