I was recently on a classic horror and mythos reading kick while also getting into True Detective. I started reading some of the short stories of Ambrose Bierce and Robert W. Chambers and fell in love with the sparse references to The King in Yellow and Carcosa. I was concurrently working on a set of figures from an interesting old episode of from the original GI Joe cartoon, and decided to take a stab at designing a figure based on TYK. I'm a fan of more obscure physical representations of the esoteric (the floating shape over the labyrinth of Hell in Hellraiser 2 being a personal favorite) but I decided, based on the few excerpts from the PLAY "The King in Yellow" that perhaps this entity had a humanoid form it would take on in dealing with people. Initially, I had the bone necklace on upside as a sort of crown, but when I inverted it over the eyes it had a wonderfully creepy "veiled" look that reminded me of the art of Gerald Brom or "Pyramid Head" from Silent Hill. He was originally meant for the SPIRITS vs CORPSE group project but didn't make the deadline.
