Need a typewriter to go with your animated Lovecraft character? Here’s a nice 3D model of an antique typewriter in the standard 3D format of OBJ. Very similar to Lovecraft’s own, just swop out the Imperial logo for that of a 1906 Remington. Only $7, royalty-free, and it comes with a nice selection of hi-res textures including an “aged” look…

This is my upscaling to print-res of a Creative Commons Attribution ShareAlike picture from Rouge Spark and Frozen Moon. I hope it’ll be useful to someone. Could make a nice retro postcard, to act as a flyer for a film show or similar.

Astounding Cthulhu Competition

Enter the Call of Cthulhu Competition, and win a copy of Astounding Stories from March 1936 featuring H.P. Lovecraft (contains part 2 of At the Mountains of Madness).

To enter, “rewrite the text of an existing review of [the game] Call of Cthulhu: The Wasted Land in the style of H.P. Lovecraft”.

Interesting to see quite how small Astounding was. I had gained the impression that most pulps were big tabloid-newspaper -sized things.
