Artist's Comments

For a fan project (apparently). The key words were "savage" and "Gyakushu Goji." I thought I heard "retro" in there as well, so I ran with that ;)

For those unawares, GIGANTIS THE FIRE MONSTER was the original US title for GOJIRA NO GYAKUSHU, otherwise known as GODZILLA RAIDS AGAIN.

Why call it "Gigantis"? Well, Godzilla wasn't a franchise type character at the time, so the US distributors decided it would be safer to repackage the film as a "new" monster...or something.

Wow, awesome redesign of Godzilla. Kind of spiky on the head and those chin spikes are an odd addition, but they definitely make him look unique. Wicked looking fangs and menacing looking eyes as well. Overall a very nice look to this take of Godzilla/Gigantis.

God damn, this is awesome. I love the coloration of this one-sorta a fairly happy medium between the "correct" grey and the green most people think Godzilla (or Gigantis in this case) is.

I love the vicious, snaggle-tooth look he has going, and for some reason I really like the blue highlighting you have in some places.
