A Excellent take on the Kaiju, my best rating goes for the fact you made him more animalistic and human wich is a pretty nice take.
I also like you gave him a little underbite wich gives alot of view on the big lip's.
However my favourite detail would be you gave him sort of a evil stare and pose wich gives him alot of character.
Just seeing his direct stare and sitting pose just waiting to strike gives you alot of expectation for his next move.
What i dont really like is his color, but you made it fit pretty well into the mix anyway.
Overall a very good take on the character!

Pretty good look for what is really a....dated look on a kaiju. Even they brought him back in the new Ultra series, he still looks a bit goofy.
I think you did a good job at capturing the character's feel...while still maintaining enough of the original traits that make it still feel at home in the genera that sprang him forth into this world. The longer arms feel ape like but fit the overall lanky build of the monster. I like the fact that the hands and feet are a bit more oversized. It fits the fish motive cause a lot of "unique" species of fish usually have some sort of body or appendage that is oversize for their respective build. A sharks maw, a swordfishes nose or Manta rays arms. These just but a few examples of that. I think making the bottom lip only visible does remove a bit of the comical goofiness of the giant lips from the original monster. Even though fish do have these...it always felt ...cartoony in the original. Having the lantern jaw, jut out a bit, gives a bit of structure to the head and an overall unique meanness to the character.
I think you might have missed a bit of opportunity here to add a splash of color into the hide or the fits that run along his body though. I mean this is a revamp so that is not too far off of the mark. And most fish do have hues of color in them. Even if it is all green, there is a different variations in it because of the shimmer of the scales.
Other than that I think you did a wonderful job. I really look forward to seeing if you do anymore of these guys. I think Dodongo would be a really good candidate to update lol

Thanks!! yeah I was not a big fan of his lips in the show, that's why I wanted to give him a new look
I wanted to give him an ape like feel, and I used the creature from the black lagoon (1954) for a little bit of inspiration
and now that you mention it I do see the missed opportunity in adding some other hues instead of just green, I'll keep this inmind for futer projects
and Dodongo is now on my list cause he just looks real silly XD
