Re: Best and Worse Kaiju Redesigns
I would redesign Mothra with a proboscis like real lediopterans. Said proboscis will be able to inject venom as well, rather than a stinger at the rear tip f the abdomen.I would also take note from this particular species of moth : https://www.sciencealert.com/this-night ... -impressed.
Since only males of the species have the abdonomal tendrils, I would work around it by giving her little buds on her rear that emit mind-altering pheromones that disorientate enemies. Battra will be given fully-developed tendrils.

I like those, they look like they belong to some sort of Godzilla cartoon. Nice style to them.Kiryu2012 wrote:

Re: Best and Worse Kaiju Redesigns
Injecting venom is something I would never see Mothra of all things doing. The mind-altering stuff? I could see that as a form of her reflective scales.LegendZilla wrote:I would redesign Mothra with a proboscis like real lediopterans.

I guess a kaiju like Battra could use a complete redesign, for him I wouldn't mind any new, weird abilities and traits. Those tentacle things would be unique, and better than him being a beam spammer.

Re: Best and Worse Kaiju Redesigns
I would also redesign Space Godzilla by replacing his head crest with an enlarged crystal-encapsulated brain and change the texture of his skin to resemble the crater-ridden surface of the moon instead of normal Godzilla's trademark keloid-like texture. Just thought I'd help differentiate him from Supergodzilla.

Re: Best and Worse Kaiju Redesigns
^ Good ideas. I'd also like to see something more extreme, like fully crystal limbs, maybe. I feel like there's a lot that can be done with the crystals, but the lazy, shoddy production of that movie wasn't very imaginative.

Re: Best and Worse Kaiju Redesigns
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
^ And that would also fall into the unimaginative category. It's not even a good use of Shin style. They just made him anorexic, painted on a few scars, and put a mouth on his tail. Shin Spacegodzilla should be a full-blown abomination.

Re: Best and Worse Kaiju Redesigns
I think the opposite, Space Shin should look like a majestic yet benevolent god, he's half star.
Similar to how Shin Ghidorah would be this pristine beautiful beast in contrast to Godzillas hideous appearance.
That picture has him looking way too Shin for something created in a star

Re: Best and Worse Kaiju Redesigns
I'm not necessarily of the opinion that an evil or negative Godzilla means that his traditional enemies need to become good; why can't they just both be horrible, with humanity screwed no matter who wins? I'd watch a movie that took that route.
Buuut, and while my knee-jerk reaction was confusion, a benevolent Spacegodzilla could actually be really cool. His crystals can be used to protect things other than himself, after all.

Re: Best and Worse Kaiju Redesigns
Whoops, I totally meant malevolent like a force of nature from space, not good not evil, but pissed nonetheless , 2 malevolent beasts going head to head. SpaceG having a pristine appearance and Shin G having this mangled demon look which ironically is the one we're supposed to root forJAGzilla wrote:I'm not necessarily of the opinion that an evil or negative Godzilla means that his traditional enemies need to become good; why can't they just both be horrible, with humanity screwed no matter who wins?

Also, Jag, it's supposed to be a redesign of Spacegodzilla that takes influence from Shin, not a Shin Spacegodzilla. (To quote the guy who drew it, he wanted a twisted Godzilla and was like "Wait a minute....."

Ah. Okay, I'll retract my complaint, then. I still don't like the design, but I guess it's fine for what it is.

Richard Kuulme/Hellraptor Studios made a great redesign of the Rhedosaurus.
And if it's not posted already, Matt Frank's take on Legendary Godzilla.
And here's his redesign of Cyber Zilla for jira004.
