These are the kinds of art that I just enjoy, even though they’re kinda over the top, too spiky, and impractical. The quill-covered Godzilla is just cool looking. And they’re all drawn/painted competently, so they’re enjoyable in that sense.Gigantis wrote: ↑Sun Jul 31, 2022 5:50 pm Who remembers these ancient pieces of fanart? They were made by Cheunchungtat back in 2010 and 2011. (the last one being the one made in 2011)
Looking back, they're all a bit edgy to really make good Godzilla redesigns, but on their own, they're still pretty neat looking.

Re: Best and Worst Kaiju Redesigns
Big fan of the first two. My opinion for the third depends on if it's supposed to be SpaceGodzilla or another rendition of the big G.

Re: Best and Worst Kaiju Redesigns
very good stuff. quill-feathered godzilla is, in my personal take, a highly underexplored take on Godzilla. everybody just goes with a generic, often shrinkwrapped and outdated looking theropod and then makes it into Godzilla with little to no thought. i think a take on Godzilla going less off of JP rejects and more going on stuff like Briah Engh's theropods or CM Koseman's dinosaur depictions would be a very interesting take on the Big G.

DeviantArt newcomer AtomicN30 unveiled a more Showa-styled Godzilla redesign earlier this week. I really like this design, even if some of the suits it's based on aren't my cup of tea.

Re: Best and Worst Kaiju Redesigns
The shading and detailing is clearly inspired by Matt Frank, but the anatomy, pose, and general technical execution is nowhere near his level.

Will say does a good job capturing the Showa feel of the look.

It's just a fatter Mosugoji.

Maybe my eyes are just failing me but I don't see MosuGoji here besides the eyebrows. The rest of the head reminds me more of DaisensoGoji.

Most of these kaiju redesign fan series are modeled after Frank's Neo stuff.

Re: Best and Worst Kaiju Redesigns
i love how weird both are. Gigan's a derpy ass weirdo with a murderous streak. too many people try to make gigan an edgy try hard and then it just kinda ruins Gigan's whole thing.

But how does the other one at the top even walk on those pointed legs, never mind stand up?

Do you think it's also possible that that version of the Nebulans discovered anti-gravity on their version of Space Hunter Nebula M and used it for that version of Gigan?

That's definitely an option as well. Now that I think about it, floating probably fits this design more than powered flight.mikelcho wrote: ↑Thu Aug 11, 2022 6:36 pmHmmmm, never even thought of that.Cryptid_Liker wrote: ↑Thu Aug 11, 2022 6:28 pmConsidering how big his wings are, I'm willing to bet he doesn't.
