Thak Ironworks's video: Forging Cthulhu s Head

In this video I continue in the series of sculptural blacksmithing with another head. Adapting the basic "recipe" of my forged skull process, I, in this case, elongate the back of the cranium and create hollow side ridges to create an octopus-like effect. Using a birds-eye punch, I forge very deep-set eye sockets with a pronounced brow ridge. Then, of course......tentacles. This project illustrates how one can build on one process to achieve a whole new outcome. As a longtime HP Lovecraft fan, I found this to be an intriguing experiment and one I will continue to refine.
