Jimmy Foo's custom "Caytano The Knifethrower" Sketchbot teaser poster...

Today we are getting a nice little teaser from Jimmy Foo as he is one of the many distinguished artists to be involved with the Sketchbot Show #2 which is going down on the Friday before Designer Con (11/19/2010) at Munky King! What do we know about Jimmy's custom Sketcbot... not really to much, but I can tell you that his name is "Caytano The Knifethrower" and is one of the last remaining Cthulu around. Want to know more... well so do I, and until more is revealed hit the jump for the full back story on this elusive being!

Backstory on Caytano The Knifethrower:
Caytano used to be part of Bombast Furioso's circus, the 'Palace Of Wonders' and headlined with his robotic knife throwing act. At the time he was the only Cthulu circus act in the world and commanded a high price for his performances......

After a series of unfortunate incidents at the Palace Of Wonders coupled with the general decline of the circus as an entertainment, Caytano and many others found themselves out of work. With no formal training he found it difficult to make a living and for many years got by as a petty criminal until he decided to put his only skill to some use. He now earns an excellent living as a backstreet vivisectionist. He counts top universities, labs and pharmaceutical companies as his customers along with one or two wealthy 'hobbyists' all knocking at his door for his discreet services.

This poster is one of the few remaining images of Caytano, who now remains very elusive and camera shy.

Incidental factoid No1:
Otus the highwire performer worked at this same circus and was a very good friend of Caytano.
