Dude, I know the idea is to try something different, I'm glad they are because this series got stagnent around the Heisi and Millenium era, but I think there's a difference between the let's do something different and let's make Godzilla a T-rex from JP.

I really, really hope this is ironic
All houses have the same. Roof. Floor. Walls. People yelling at you that they're calling the police because you broke into their house. It's only when you give them love that they truly become Home

Hey someone posted my Godzilla! I'm glad you like it, dopepope did a wonderful job. This is the 2017 version. I have some made modifications and passed the design around to several artists. I like to put it through the wringer.

If you're interested you can check the different versions here: https://www.tohokingdom.com/forum/viewt ... 7#p1379607

I am absolutely obsessed with a more reptilian Godzilla and it's been absolutely fun to do. The final version by Emily Stepp was an absolutely fun time, she's a wonderful artist. I've also done redesigns of Mothra, Ghidorah, and Rodan. Anguirus and Titanosaurus are next.

Is it bad i forgot you made this? :lol:

Gotta say, wouldn't mind something like that in the next G film (though i doubt Toho would do it). Pretty nice!

You...completely missed my point regarding the movie concepts.

The point wasn’t “The concept artists wanted to try something different”, it was “the concept artists did something extremely different so they could take aspects of each design and whittle it down to something unique but recognizable”.

Say what you will, but this design for 2014 Godzilla would've been a very interesting take. Pushing the Heisei narrative of Godzilla being an undiscovered prehistoric carnivorous dinosaur that was nuked. While also keeping Godzilla buff enough to where he can handle his own, unlike Iguanazilla. Plus, look at that tail.. that's a beast.

Image

I'm not saying it would've been the best call, but it certainly would've been different yet interesting. I could certainly hear this design roaring with the classic roar.

Yeah but his arms aren't doing him any favors. Make them any shorter and they look like Bemular's. :lol:

Yeah lol, he'd definitely need some arm extensions before he's sent out into the field, for sure.

This head design on the body selected for the movie would have been perfect for me.

Godzilla looks like he's a second away from crying because of his miserable existence.

Anyway, here's someone who took the "skreoonked up clone" part of Orga to the next level.

Here's another redesign by the same person. While I'm not against the idea of an azhdarchid Rodan, this isn't the right way to do it.

Eh, enlarge the spines and arms, and fix up the feet and body proportions and it could be reworked into a more decent design.
My most wanted fight ever is Discord vs Bobobo-bo bo-bobo.
Godzilla has a regen like Wolverine, a skin like Luke Cage, a hero aura like Captain America, a strength like Hulk, an unstoppability like Juggernaut, an immortality like Deadpool.

There's a 'God' in Godzilla for a reason...

Wait.

Actually, this is an amazing redesign of the character, it's just not being looked at in the right context. It's not a redesign of Godzilla. It's a redesign of Gojira.

Other than the very Shin Godzilla-esque face, I quite like this one.

If that's a full grown Godzilla he's too big for my taste. Design is nice tho! :)
