The head reminds me of those horned desert vipers.Executive Hamster wrote: ↑Thu Feb 18, 2021 11:21 am Occasionally I look back to see if Daizua123 is still as bad an artist as I remember. Using google incognito, of course, cause he blocked me on Deviantart.
Yeah, still not great. Im not sure how recent this is though.
Wonder if he is still a terrible person. IDK. He still has me blocked so...

A pretty cool (and in my opinion, proper) theropod-like take on Godzilla.

Re: Best and Worse Kaiju Redesigns
Not sure if this counts but I do like Matsumaru's Godzilla, it's like 1954 but with less man-in-suit and more dinosaur.

Re: Best and Worse Kaiju Redesigns
A whole bunch of Kong redesigns:
1)
This one is good. Simple, and nothing too extravagant or outlandish. Kinda reminds me of Kong from the concept art of the ‘33 film.
https://www.deviantart.com/panciraptor/ ... -744505203
2)
A rather... unique look you could say. Follows the more gorilla route of the ‘05 film, but w/ a bit more of a monstrosity-ness to it. If that makes sense.
https://www.deviantart.com/ksaquino1277 ... -542157781
3)
When in doubt, add spikes. : P
https://www.deviantart.com/reydoor/art/ ... -851284584
4)
This design has a more adolescent/innocence to it, less battle-scarred than the usual approach to Kong. Like we’re seeing Kong in his early years before his rise to being a ‘king’. Idk, that’s just what I think.
https://www.deviantart.com/hewytoonmore ... -820854804
5)
This one is interesting as typically, that I’ve noticed anyways, whenever someone decides to redesign Kong he’s in a fighting stance or expressing aggression or showing off his ferocity. Here though, it’s seems to be a more nice and calm moment. Him in between his many battles, just sitting there and eating. Which contrasts his rather intimidating and scarred/battered appearance. Nice little detail of Kong’s electrical power if you look closely.
https://www.deviantart.com/christiancah ... -865832696
6)
A redesign of Kong’s opponent from the unmade “King Kong Vs Frankenstein”. Weird, but cool to look at. Diving deep right into that classic Frankenstein monster patchwork type of creature.
https://www.deviantart.com/crocazill/ar ... n-64991875
7)
My quick spin on both Kong and the Frankenstein Monster,
https://www.deviantart.com/artmakerprod ... -816381517
8)
..And my alternate take on Kong that went for the early half-man/half-ape idea of the ‘33 film and the unmade ‘The Legend of King Kong’ by Universal + various prehistoric beasts are showcased here too as you can see.

I like it. If they had the budget for a full stop motion creature like they originally planned, this (in my mind) would be close to that might’ve looked like design wise.

Re: Best and Worse Kaiju Redesigns
I definitely like the 4th one the best. Kong is a hard kaiju to redesign, considering he's just a big monke.
Number 2 I find funny cause the woman has the anatomy of a man with boobs and the man has the anatomy of a tumor. Looks like Matt Frank's Matango with human skin.

Honestly, Rhedosaurus is so generic anyway, Id say anything could make a good redesign.

Re: Best and Worse Kaiju Redesigns
Disagree, The Rhedosaurus has a very unique design. Simple does not always mean generic.Executive Hamster wrote: ↑Sun Feb 21, 2021 3:55 pm Honestly, Rhedosaurus is so generic anyway, Id say anything could make a good redesign.
And yet he almost always gets reinterpreted the same way, T-rex head, generic Dino body, crocodile tail.
