day 16 of my october palette challenge
the king in yellow

IMAGE ID BELOW CUT
[IMAGE ID: In front of a black background is a mysterious figure in a golden hooded robe. One glowing yellow eye can be seen on their face, but there are no other distinct features. Golden chains are attached to their back and lead somewhere outside the frame. A yellow glowing crown with pointy tips floats above their head. End ID.]

My greatest hope is for this to remain as vaguely unsettling by the end of the project as it is right now.







Some illustrations inspired by Chambers’ “The King in Yellow”.Quelques illustrations inspirées du “Roi en jaune” de Chambers.
I’ve been thinking. The song Rule 34 by Fish in a Birdcage always makes me think of Arthur and The King in Yellow. Like, I have this scene where he takes over Arthur’s mind, and John is struggling to save him as Arthur and The King dance. I should probably draw this.

It’s the Bastard in Yellow himself. Look at him.

Thinking about him/them pt 2




Excerpt from Invictus by William Ernest Henley, 1888
![[Image ID: digital art of Kayne and Hastur (the King in Yellow) in the atyle of a pieta, with Kayne as Jesus and Hastur as Mary. Kayne is a pale man with dark hair and red eyes (highlighted in white with a cross shape) wearing a suit with different shades of dark greyHe has a slightly crazed look on his face with a wide grin and wide eyes, looking towards the viewer, and is lounging in Hastur's lap, one leg crossed over the other, playfully holding up a peace sign. Behind his head there is a spiked halo, which is overlaid on top of a redish circle/ halo. Hastur is potrayed as a figure enrobed in tattered yellow cloth with dark brownalmost black hands, one on Kayne's shoulder and the other out in an almost shrug. Hastur is also wearing a pallid spiked crown, in contrast to his face that is completely in shadow, turned towards Kayne. The background is mostly dark, compromised mostly of tentacle shadows, though a dim light appears to be radiating from the two figures' heads. /end ID]](https://64.media.tumblr.com/3a9830b2666513e20a9eddd8fcc04cad/d9fa169280bbe035-72/s500x750/0557f2311186173b2c59ab014519feb609135e4f.jpg)
