I was digging around in some old sketches today and found this drawing I did of the Tall Man sans mask. If you would like to see it, bearing in mind that the character may lose some of his appealing mystique, and that his face is pretty fucked up, please scroll down.

I'm willing to bet some of you were expecting me to post a picture of David Hasselhoff or something for a joke. Well, I didn't.

Reminds me of Pin Head. Good thing, I realise now why he can't talk.

Did anybody else notice that the blades on his weapon are upside down compared to what made it into the game? Also I always though his actual face was the blank whiteness, ah well, cool anyway.

So did I. Even though it says in TN (and possibly 6DAS too, I don't know) that he's masked, I always thought those humans said it because they didn't want to consider the other possiblity.

Also, damn that Yahtzee and his reverse psychology. I swore I wouldn't look at the picture, but I did anyway. Oh well, it looks cool.

I take it this means that the new prince also has a sans mask face.

Awesome. I'm glad he made it into the game sans face though, because he did end up being so much creepier as just that white masked face.

Flesh and gore got old so very quickly, didn't it? Pale shapes, silent faces and the notion of something dark in between... now that's what creeps you out, innit?

As a long time follower of everybody's favorite watchman and the question I find myself agreeing.
There is a strong psychological/spiritual effect to a blank faced human...

Many consider the eyes "mirrors of the spirit"; they alone can convey many emotions (for instance, pupils shrinking to the size of a needle's point). A blank, featureless white face just doesn't put across any emotion whatsoever. That, paired with a psychopathic disposition (although this I have to reconsider after 6DAS, where he could have killed many more people but he didn't) is what causes its scariness. You just don't know what to expect, like when Frehorn was begging for his life, everyone was thinking "this bastard is going to die NOW". And he didn't.

Come to think of it, why didn't the Tall Man kill Theo immediately when it became apparent to him that Theo posed a serious threat?

I so bet he got the mask because that face would be like impossible to make at pixel-size.

It would probably look lie a mush of coloured pixels, rather than a face.

OK, it probably would be possible to pixelize that face, but it wouldn't have the same effect as it did on paper.

However, it would've been a nice a picture for the poster in the bar in Trilby's Notes.

Anyway, there goes my theory of Chzo's torture wiping every characteristic of Cabadath with his torture and symbolizing that with a blank featureless face.

Funnily enough that was the same thing I though myself!
Oh well either way we still love the tall man
(the bad news for me is now I'm going to have to try rendering that face too)

My, what a beautifully crafted sentence that was. Gotta lay off the narcotics.

Wow, that's pretty fucked up.

It's like Leatherface and Freddy Krueger had a child. That killed and ate them both.
