Here's another one of my handmade displays for my Shelf of Madness. This was actually made prior to my Yellow Sign and Carcosian Star Chart displays - after the brain cylinder.
One of my favorite purchased artifacts is a set of stone seals from the 'Hastur' experience from the Mysterious Package Company. For those that aren't familiar with these, they are little engraved stone/resin cylinders that when rolled across a soft medium like clay leave an imprint of part of a story describing Carcosa. I always though these were really cool, but anyone simply looking at them wouldn't be able to easily see the scenes they depict.
So I decided to make some faux clay tablets that show each scene. These are actually made of a moldable EVA foam that has been painted to look like clay. I then mounted these tablets in shadow boxes with their respective stone seals and tags that include a small excerpt of the story told in each scene.
After finishing this project, I got the green light from my wife to expand my Shelf of Madness ?, so they have moved around a little since these photos were taken.
(By the way, photographing these was much more difficult than I expected. Apologies for the glare and reflections.)
