Re: Best and Worse Kaiju Redesigns
honestly megalon is one of the hardest kaiju to give a more realistic design.

Re: Best and Worse Kaiju Redesigns
Some designs (Minilla, Gabara, Megalon, Jet Jaguar, even Zone Fighter) are what they are and are better off that way, I feel. It's better to lean into/accept they're in the more outlandish/fantastical category.

Re: Best and Worse Kaiju Redesigns
If it wasn't for the color palette and the fact that it's labeled as a Megalon redesign, I probably would have thought it was another insect monster.JNewbold54 wrote: ↑Sat Feb 27, 2021 6:22 am Megalon Redesign:

Re: Best and Worse Kaiju Redesigns
why of course, that is the appeal of them after all. i just think that people trying to make those types of designs more realistic while being recognisable is difficult.
speaking of redesigns for outlandish kaiju, i think this one is a good redesign that gives more insect and realistic traits while still keeping the bipedal stance and sillouhete.

Re: Best and Worse Kaiju Redesigns
I'm okay with the legs. It's easy to forget, but Megaton spent a good deal of time in his film hopping around like an idiot. Those legs justify it.Cryptid_Liker wrote: ↑Sat Feb 27, 2021 9:55 pmWith straighter legs and smoother elbows, that looks greatmerio wrote: ↑Sat Feb 27, 2021 7:08 pmwhy of course, that is the appeal of them after all. i just think that people trying to make those types of designs more realistic while being recognisable is difficult.

Wouldn’t mind a more cricket inspired Megalon.

Re: Best and Worse Kaiju Redesigns
I wouldn't mind that for a Monsterverse Megalon, heck even a future Japanese project. That's a cool Megalon redesign.
Also, one of the artists who worked on KotM, Simon Lee, made a sculpture of Anguirus:
Thought it belonged here since it is a redesign. I think he looks ok I guess, could be better could be worse. The spikes are really big on his back, would prefer them to be smaller and more numerous. His large curved oriental style fang is in the wrong place as well. If this was the real Monsterverse Anguirus I'd be a little mixed on it at first. Thoughts?

Re: Best and Worse Kaiju Redesigns
Idk if this was posted here yet
A more recent one, but it reminds me of Deviantart 2014-2015 when everyone's Godzilla redesign was a 2014 clone but significantly worse.

Re: Best and Worse Kaiju Redesigns
I really like that Anguirus. It does a great job of looking like an actual dinosaur, with ankylosaur, stegosaur, and ceratopsian features pretty smoothly combined, while still obviously being Anguirus. Looks tough and dangerous, too.

A pretty cool King Ghidorah in my opinion. Having some nice touches of alien-ness to it, be it the wings, the head/facial area w/ the rather unnaturally gold colouration of it’s body/scales. So all in all, a good take on Godzilla’s nemesis.

Re: Best and Worse Kaiju Redesigns
I wouldn't really call it a redesign, it was supposed to be my take on a Legendary Angurius based off of the skeleton that they included in KOTM
