Love this central roof on the French Gothic style former Glasgow Instititue for the Deaf and Dumb on Prospecthill Road, especially the little creature nestled in its eaves. The building was designed by Salmon, Son and Ritchie, and was constructed in 1867.

A French Gothic style pitched roof with a winged mythical animal nestled in its eaves.

Angle and devil.

A small 64px sprite of a purple and yellow, vaguely chameleon esque gargoyle floats while holding its head in its hands like a cherub. She seems excited and or flustered.

Because no one asked...

I felt Dr X was a pointless addition to the "make a face lollipop sticks" of the 1970s Count Dracula(r) ice lollies.

So I have reworked them to include a gargoyle face instead... you know.. for reasons.

Anyone who was alive in the 70s will appreciate this, on various levels.

Lolly-trace-a-face? I can't remember.

Based on a scan of the trace-a-face lollipop sticks of the 1970s Dracula(r) lollipops, there is a series of face components to draw various monsters. Including Dracula(r) Wolfman, Frankenstein and mysteriously Captain Death. The author has replaced the first one with the components to make a gargoyle face, because he has too much time on his hands

Finally found some time to restock some of the gold prints, and so much easier to print them together as gold ink clean up is a chore!! A little Yōkai, gargoyle, Minotaur and doorknocker going on here. #minotaur #doorknocker #labyrinth #myth #gargoyle #yokai #folklore #print #linocut #gold

This is a non sequitur that has been nibbling on the edges of Hiro's mind for the last ten minutes: Laser light has a particular kind of gritty intensity, a molecular purity reflecting its origins. Your eye notices this, somehow knows that it's unnatural. It stands out anywhere, but especially under a dirty overpass in the middle of the night. Hiro keeps getting flashes of it in his peripheral vision, keeps glancing over to track down it's source. It's obvious to him, but no one else seems to notice.

Someone in this overpass, somewhere, is bouncing a laser beam off Hiro's face.

It's annoying. Without being too obvious about it, he changes his course slightly, wanders over to a point downwind of a trash fire that's burning in a steel drum. Now he's standing in the middle of a plume of diluted smoke that he can smell but can't quite see.

But the next time the laser darts into his face, it scatters off a million tiny, ashy particulates and reveals itself as a pure geometric line in space, pointing straight back to its source.

It's a gargoyle, standing in the dimness next to a shanty. Just in case he's not already conspicuous enough, he's wearing a suit. Hiro starts walking toward him.

Gargoyles represent the embarrassing side of the Central Intelligence Corporation. Instead of using laptops,

they wear their computers on their bodies, broken up into separate modules that hang on the waist, on the back, on the headset. They serve as human surveillance devices, recording everything that happens around them. Nothing looks stupider; these getups are the modern-day equivalent of the slide-rule scabbard or the calculator pouch on the belt, marking the user as belonging to a class that is at once above and far below human society. They are a boon to Hiro because they embody the worst stereotype of the CIC stringer. They draw all of the attention. The payoff for this self-imposed ostracism is that you can be in the Metaverse all the time, and gather intelligence all the time.

Everyone's assuming her petrifying gaze would have NO effect here and that's clearly wrong. It would be a healing stat buff actually. She can regenerate and strengthen her girlfriend by looking at her.

Love this ecclesiastical grotesque which appears to be pulling itself through the wall of Shawlands Cross Church on the Southside of Glasgow.

A dragon-like grotesque apparently emerging from the stone wall of a Glasgow church.

Old and new grotesques on the corbels of St Mary's Cathedral in Glasgow. The new ones were created during its restoraton and feature likenesses of members of its congregation and clergy, as well as those who worked it.

Two grotesques on the corbels of a church, one dating fron the 1870s and one dating from the 2000s.

Gargoyle Angelo

Told myself I'd draw myself wearing a loincloth variant instead of wearing just sweatpants.

Day 26: Mask
I found this little guy on a tomb in the tiny village of Wherwell (where the myth of the Cockatrice came from) and loved him so thought I’d make him into a print. Not sure of his origins other than that!
