Thanks guys!  My only regret is that now I have to wait a week before drawing another.

Don't be silly, You can still draw it! you just can't vote for your own drawing. :P

Good point!  I had even more fun with this one.  Perhaps the foulest-looking thing I have ever drawn. :D

First thing I have drawn since like, middle school :P I couldn't figure out how to make it appear disgusting and dirty, so I made it "drip"

Here's my version of the filth monster!

Those dead things behind it are dwarves killed by the toxic gases, and the things in front are dwarves for a size comparison :D

Generally, when one is conducting an experiment, it is worth noting that the observers went insane, killed each other, and then rose from the dead.
It's like DF inhaled a peanut.

Oh man, the scale adds a lot.  Sentient refuse becomes a lot more terrifying when it can step on you.

Well, it is described as "huge" and associated with "nightmares" - and there is nothing scarier in the world of filth than a massive ambulatory filth that can step on your village :)

I think scale is one of the things that makes depictions of forgotten beasts so interesting: it's really hard to keep their size in mind in game, when they take up the same visual space as a dwarf. The Dwarf can move through that single tile tunnel, so can that 'huge' nightmarish Eldritch abomination. Seeing the Eldritch abomination represented on a scale where it is not necessarily the same size as the Dwarf, puts things in perspective again.

This is my rendition of Nunlod. The little stick guy is for comparison the size of a human.

Those dwarves were DOOMED to murder each other horribly, because they became friends!

Oh dear, could someone please explain how to post an image?

Upload it to an image hosting site and put the picture's URL into the [img ] [/img ] tags (remove the space after "img" when you do). I use imgur for pictures, and it provides the premade BBCode for you already.
