As a long-time Lovecraft fan I am keen to embark on some 10 mm skirmishy games involving Cthulhu. I 've seen the threads relating to this notion but have little idea of what figures might be useful. For example, would the tentacled behemoth in the Fantasy range pass for the Dread Eminence from the 'Necronomicon'? And what other figures would be suitable? I was intending to use 'Strange Aeons' as a rule set.
Many thanks in anticipation.

I'm not that familiar with the Lovecraft stuff, but if you can post some pics of the kind of thing you're looking for, we can see what would be suitable.

Ask Nik, he's done some of that already.
Well, there are fishmen types and cultists in cowled habits and 1920s/1930s civilians and the man himself is illustrated in the attached mugshot.
I've seen Nik's posts on related threads but he does not give details of what figures he uses. Do you suggest a PM to him?
Thanks for your interest in this!
