Maybe if he does a nuclear pulse then his skin could fissure for a bit after... but meh.

Yeah I can understand and respect that. I thought about the same thing myself, as in if we did get a Burning Godzilla sort of thing again, it wouldn't be as notable. But if it was dramatically more blotchy and all like in the actual Burning Godzilla, I think it would still work. That one LPG Godzilla rumor picture that's probably floating in this very thread is sort of how I'd like the fissures to look.

Anyhow, yes I see why you'd prefer them not to do so.

It's better than GINO, but it still looks like a dinosaur...especially the facial complexion.

To be fair Godzilla is a dinosaur (OK, was) he just barely looks like one in most incarnations because he's been heavily mutated into something else all together. Something alien to this world. Then again that pretty goes without saying for all the mutants in the Godzilla films.

To be fair, I think it's a decent design. My only criticism is of the skin color & texture.

This would look awesome if it was colored grey/black.

I have a feeling it won't be that popular, but I'm going to agree with you. I have that picture saved on my computer. I like it, but there are some changes I would make, minor though they may be:

1) Get rid of the extra spikes on his chin and the back of his jaw.
2) Change the green-on-blue color scheme to the appropriate grey.
3) I dislike the purple-grey looking thing on his chest too. Whatever that is, I'd have it be gone.

Otherwise I like the design. The head looks good. The overall form is powerful and solid but not overweight (not really a fan of the bulging arm muscles though). The spikes on his tail getting larger at the end help give credibility to him being a monster that can dwell in the ocean, being an intermediary dinosaur and all.

If Godzilla is muscular like a Trendmasters figure, I'm going to be a little bothered.

- Stands up-right, Yes i think he should.. I hate the fact of thinking of Godzilla like GINO all hunched over like a Raptor of T-Rex.
- Deep roar, much like Godzilla 1985 or Godzilla 1954, not all high pitched screeching like in GINO.
- Grey or blackish tent skin, to imply a burnt, rusted, an tortured animal...
- Thick Legs, an chest.. Godzilla does not need to be skinny or thin, it's a very bulky animal an has no need to run.. since it shouldn't be running from anything.
- 4 claws an 4 toes, it should not represent a T-Rex foot.. Should look like Stan W. design for the rejected 94 script.
- spines, pretty much like the early 90's series.. didn't care for the 2000 series where he had 1 giant one in the middle.
- Godzilla should stand 350 to 450 ft tall...

This is my opinion on how i think Godzilla should look.



I wholeheartedly agree, save for the height. It's hard enough already to suspend belief that Godzilla is that tall in the Japanese films, and some people have complained about how inconsistant the size of the Cloverfield monster seemed to be in the movie, so you know even CGI might be hampered if Godzilla's any much taller than he has already been depicted.

Personally, I like the more mammalian features on Godzilla's face. It adds a menace to the creature that bird or reptillian faces are rarely capable of. Compare a lion's face with a Komodo dragon's. The lion can contort it's facial features and show more of it's teeth, making it far more intimidating, even though a Komodo dragon is just as capable of maiming and killing you, heck, it can even break bones with its bite.
