More Lovecraftian Dioramas

A few years ago, I did a post on Donal Buckley's excellent Lovecraftian dioramas. Since then, Mr. Buckley has been hard at work on more sinister transitions of Lovecraftian ideas into three dimensional miniatures. Images in his latest gallery depict models based on several Lovecraft stories as well as Ramsey Campbell's Mythos tale, "The Tower of Yuggoth."


With real skill, Buckley gives reality to mysterious churches, lichen overgrown relics, and cults meddling with the borders between realities. His model imagining a summoning ceremony for Yog-Sothoth (above) is particularly impressive. Buckley's little towns and derelicts may even let the imagination run wild when one thinks of what goes on when the lights are out and nobody's around. I'm reminded of the miniature town from Tim Burton's Beetlejuice.
