God, that's one of the most basic and bland redesigns I've ever seen.

I'd make that Titanosaurus stand more upright, but otherwise that's a great look for him.

The King Ghidorah is beautiful. I find the handling of the wings especially lovely. Whether or not I agree with the direction of his redesigns, I absolutely love how he executes them. There's always something very thought provoking in each one.

I agree 100%. I'd say the Ghidorah is probably one of his best ones yet, followed by his Godzilla and Baragon

Worst Redesign: Minilla 2004. They were on the right path to making him look much less ugly in the Heisei era, and then they screwed him up again in Final Wars. :g2k:

Best Redesign: Mechagodzilla 1993. A great design that creates the antithesis of everything Godzilla represents. He's man-made, not of nature. He's futuristic, not out of the past. He's emotionless, while Godzilla is made to be a living, thinking creature. Best of all, he's bright and shining, as opposed to the dark gravelly look of Godzilla's skin. He's built just how he functions: like a tank. He has the relative Godzilla design, but doesn't look too much like Godzilla (like Kiryu did), while also not straying too far from the robotic dinosaur look (like the Anime Mechagodzilla design... seriously what the skreeonk was that thing?). :mechagodzilla:

Yeah, sorry. Realized that a while later.

The second one reminds of early 1900s dinosaur reconstructions, it's pretty cool.
why did i have to be the chosen one?

Hm...not bad really. It's definitely different with the colors and eyes, but overall...I dig it.

So do I. The eyes might should be tweaked a little, but everything else works pretty well. The artist did a good job with balance; there's a lot of strong crocodilian influence, but more than enough Godziller retained that it's unmistakably him, and still feels like him.

Their very good, but they don't stand out. There isn't much in the way of shading and that would really help them stand out more.
