I rather like those designs, especially Jyarumu.
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...

I can definitely appreciate the more "alien" take on Godzilla even if the final design is not something I find particularly appealing; while I enjoy many of the ideas that went into the design (evolved like nothing else on earth, skin covered in armored epidural plates, etc.) I don't quite like the final body shape and the look of the dorsal fins. It's pretty neat though, sort of an odd hybrid between Shin Godzilla and Godzilla Earth in execution.

The Ghidorah I'm a bit more receptive to; he looks like something truly alien and built for spaceflight, but I'd be lying if I wasn't just a tad dissapointed that it seems that he's unable to land and melee Godzilla like the classic Ghidorah can.

Even still, both designs are pretty neat for what they are (intentionally different takes for a new Godzilla redesign contest of the sort that goes through the fandom every few years)

Well they're definetly unique, I'll give them that. Kinda cool how Ghidorah is essentially an organic sattelite that shoots black holes from space.

Not my cup of tea at all, but I can appreciate the unique, if not bizzare aspects of them.

I'm gonna be "that guy" and say Orbital Ghidorah is a fine idea and design for a monster, but not necessarily for Ghidorah. Either way it's quite cool.

here's links to my favorites.

Abaddon

And personal favorite, Sekhmet

Pyrus makes some great kaiju designs. Leviathan, Abaddon, and Orochi are my favorites out of that bunch.

Hm... I dunno. Most of them are just dragons, and Sekhmet literally has the head of Nala from The Lion King.

Lol you do have a point, it does look like something straight out of "After Man". Even drawn in the same style. Dixon would be proud :lol:

Love his take on Gezora though. Looks more like an actual cephalopod, but still recognizeable as the classic Gezora. His story in this is also pretty damn interesting, and I dig his explanation about the "Yog virus". Trollmans's series has some well thought out worldbuilding.

I find it very interesting that his Maguma is a primate rather than a reptile or pinniped.

That Gezora is superb! The only issue I have is with the eyes; don't care for how they look like actual cephalopod eyes. The weird human-like eyes on the original have a sort of derpy charm to them. Just a minor complaint, though.

The rest of these are from a series of redesigns/an AU the artist came up. I’d definitely recommend checking out the whole gallery, it’s got a lot of cool stuff in it. Some examples of that cool stuff, which make much more sense upon reading the descriptions for them:

Agreed, very generic imo.

Looks like he's covered in cysts and has broken glass jutting out from his back. It looks like the epitome of pain. The art is well done, and the concept is unique, but I can't say I like it. What's that thing sticking out between his legs, though?

Ghidorah is interesting. Very fascinating design, but not for Ghidorah. It's more like it's own seperate creature, rather than being Ghidorah himself.

Pyrus-Leonidas' Titan designs are very standard and have a Disney feel to them, especially with Sekhmet. It's any lioness from The Lion King but with spikes. They don't explore different body plans, patterns, or details very much.
I'd change my username if I had the chance. It's a typo. It's supposed to be "66," and it's a very unfortunate thing to have on my account. Please help. :lol:

Emily Stepp has completed my commission for Ghidorah Extreme version 2. I went full wyvern for this one (fucking sue me), and I added snake elements with the cobra hoods
