Great. You know, correct me if I'm wrong, as many type of Kaiju have already been done, many insects, many animals, has a rhino derivative ever been done. Yours has a cool lumbering quality that makes me think of that. I guess anything with a single horn could be called "derivative" of a rhino.
I've always liked your technique for drawing creatures with shells, armor or some kind of carapace. That "interlocking pieces" look communicates a great tactile sensation.
I have to say that this is the fattest monster I've ever drawn... this guy is the original "thunder thighs"!
AWESOME!
Love the pucker and pinch on the knees, a convincing (an outstanding, subtle, incredibly correct) Kaiju-style rubber suit effect. The cartooniness and the Kaiju co-exist in a wonderfully believable space. The weight and movement are perfect for that slo-mo headlong charge we've all thrilled to in countless monster movies; I can just hear the after-effects footfalls thundering!
As Skribbl says, "GREE-GONK!"
Dammit, I love that knee, that foreshortened one where you really nailed the feeling of those rubber suits, (in fact, I'd say the folds betray one of the lighter, foamier costume fabrics--that sort of neoprene-y type).
That knee is a revelation. I could go on and on....
I just had to post again.
(And I love Tom's word "carapace"; only on the TAG Blog!)
