Hey a Trilopod match! It's about time a creative Kaiju like this got some attention again. Awesome banner to an awesome match.

Re: The K.W.C. General Discussion Thread
Nice to see the Battra and Anguirus Trilopods I made be put to use in a banner.
A reminder to watch Chouseishin Gransazers.

Re: The K.W.C. General Discussion Thread
Still need to read the new match, but based on the writer, should easily be worth the wait. As for the banner, I think this is a case of the original components being stronger than the final product.
The hybrid-trilopods are all fantastic, especially the Biollante trilopod which is absolutely gorgeous. My main complaint is how they are placed in the actual banner. The Anguirus-pod is kinda just standing on untouched ground with no dust, dirt or haze to smooth the transition between the two. The lighting is also a bit mixed with exposure all over the place depending on the kaiju. Lastly, while again the Biollante-pod is great, having it behind the mountains is far out of scale and keeping it unaltered in transparency or lighting means its no different from the other pods (I'm assuming its the final boss). To heighten that threat level, I'd argue to enlarge it maybe 3X the size and make it transparent, while also focusing on the head. Kinda like this with Orga:
Overall, a solid banner by Josh, but I'm as hard as I am mostly because the potential for this to have been one of the best banners of the year was there, it just needed a few tweaks in my opinion.

Yeah, when I looked at it nowadays, I could see it needed some improvements.

It’s good to hear such viewpoints. Improvements as time passes by is key. Or, as Gareth Edwards put it, “it keeps mutating through every generation.”

Re: The K.W.C. General Discussion Thread
Wait, did Josh actually make that Biollante-Trilopod hybrid by himself?

So I could have it so Megalon is under control correct? Also would Megaguirus be able to absorb a titan's power to regenerate increadibly?godjacob wrote: ↑Mon Oct 17, 2022 10:24 pmNot a mod or anything but far as Final Wars canon goes, pretty sure the Xiliens can control anything except those that lacks M-base like that version of Godzilla or "Keizers". Who on the roster would fit this is more up in the air given how vague both of these are.GojiraOverlord wrote: ↑Mon Oct 17, 2022 4:34 pm can Megalon be used as an xillien weapon but if the mothership were to be destroyed can he use his own free will to fight for himself? like join Godzilla

1) Megalon can totally be an Xilien weapon. He was during 164, and can be used for any space faring race so long as relations with Seatopia are strong.GojiraOverlord wrote: ↑Thu Oct 20, 2022 11:29 amSo I could have it so Megalon is under control correct?

2) Sadly no. Megaguirus absorbs energy, not traits. If she absorbed traits then she could've regenerated after Godzilla fried her but... she didn't.
Also, damn. Great work on that hybrid.

Great match, loved the Biollante-Trilopod, it would be cool if there was a sequel with Shin battling against the other Godzilla-Trilopod as seen in the ending.

Aw yeah, Trilopods are back baby! And with some new appearances to boot. I love the way that Godzilla is written in this match, an strategist with raw strength to match. Stellar match once again from Joshua

Re: The K.W.C. General Discussion Thread
This is all around a very good match with some kickass stuff going on, though I felt that it did drag on a bit too long. Not enough variety in the action for how long the match is.
Always glad to see Trilopods get matches.

The fight is pretty engaging as well as being pretty creative with what it does with the Trilopods.

I think it being a little tougher is alright, considering even most of the hybrid Trilopods weren’t that durable in the comic, most of them just being ripped apart.

True, I'm just referring to some comments I saw that I thought were making it a bigger deal than it was.
