Re: Best and Worse Kaiju Redesigns
Solid Gamera design. I'd like to see a fullbody of that.
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...

Re: Best and Worse Kaiju Redesigns
Cool design but the eyes being almost vertical throws me off. It looks like he's high as a kite.

Re: Best and Worse Kaiju Redesigns
Hyrotrioskjan made some Spec Evo versions of kaiju. Since they're supposed to be just regular old animals here, they don't look half bad. I especially like the concept of Biollante here.

Reposting my thoughts from DA: They're good as realistic interpretations of kaiju, but as the actual deal? They just fall pretty short.Cryptid_Liker wrote: ↑Sun Apr 04, 2021 7:21 pm Hyrotrioskjan made some Spec Evo versions of kaiju.

Re: Best and Worse Kaiju Redesigns
I see no regular animal with Biollante. You got trees growing out of its eyes from a bone skull. It's insulting.Cryptid_Liker wrote: ↑Sun Apr 04, 2021 7:21 pm Hyrotrioskjan made some Spec Evo versions of kaiju. Since they're supposed to be just regular old animals here, they don't look half bad.

*I'm really passionate about my Biollante don't mind me*
But fuck that design.
Also, the other kaiju animals are really cool looking abd do look like animals one could encounter, I like them.

You do know that's what plants do when they're near carcasses, right? They grow around it, incorporating it into their "bodies".goji89 wrote: ↑Sun Apr 04, 2021 7:42 pmI see no regular animal with Biollante. You got trees growing out of its eyes from a bone skull.

Re: Best and Worse Kaiju Redesigns
Ive always appreciated these types of redesigns, though I do take issue with people who think that these are IMPROVEMENTS. Hyrotrioskjan's designs look fantastic as their own things, even if that wasnt intended. Id love like a fantasy novel set in a world with these creature designs. Its sad to find out that he hates Kaiju movies, but I guess to each their own.

Re: Best and Worse Kaiju Redesigns
I usually like his stuff but this one in particular looks a bit too off for my taste. I never really got why so many people make Destoroyah a quadreped to begin with.
A guy who randomly stumbled upon this place one day, invested much too much time into it, and now appears to be stuck here for all eternity..and strangely enough, i do not regret it!

Re: Best and Worse Kaiju Redesigns
I like to trace everything back to Matt Frank's NEO series. Everyone is/has ap'd it to death now.
Why is that Destoroyah a horse...I don't...

Re: Best and Worse Kaiju Redesigns
Yeah, 1 in 5 of these redesigns seems to be a direct copy or heavily inspired by Godzilla NEO. I can see why; some of his designs look pretty awesome. However straight up copying them is lazy and shows a lack of imagination.

Re: Best and Worse Kaiju Redesigns
I personally always took it as incorporating his crustacean origins (and earlier multi-limbed forms) into his final one. But that’s just my thinking anyways.

No, that Dessy is a no from me Dawg.
The multi limb sea horse look is just no.

Re: Best and Worse Kaiju Redesigns
That looks astounding as its own monster. But as Godzilla, it fails on every level.

The problem I have with these is they *artists* trying to pass these off as Godzilla. Like dude, you have something that is drawn well just make it into something else and you're good. Stop saying it's Godzilla.

Re: Best and Worse Kaiju Redesigns
Agreed. I can somewhat see what the artist was going for, but it falls flat on its face in every single way. This is not Godzilla...at all lolCryptid_Liker wrote: ↑Mon Apr 05, 2021 4:42 pm That looks astounding as its own monster. But as Godzilla, it fails on every level.
Anyways, take a look at this Dark Horse comics Ghidorah concept art
I like it. Feels super alien while also being obviously Ghidorah

I feel like this would've got Dark Horse in copyright troubles with Toho but still pretty cool.
