Description Hm... Not really a ninja artwork, but is it close enough? I decided I should try and post some fanart, of the very little I do... I don't really create much fanart because a lot of the ones I make never really end up looking like who or what they actually are supposed to represent. This drawing was requested by my cousin who wanted a Godzilla in Tokyo, Japan. And being unprepared as I was, I had references for neither the creature or the setting... So this picture was basically drawn from memory somewhat. Yea, I was too lazy to look up some images for reference, but I also wanted to see what I can do from the top of my head.

Godzilla, also known by the name of Gojira, was always and still is one of the best giant monsters (aka Kaiju in Japanese) there is, at least in my opinion. I'm a fan of Godzilla, both the Japanese original and the Hollywood remake (Godzilla '98, aka "Godzilla by name only" to those who don't favor).

For those Kaiju fans out there, I know will scold me and point out every single mistake I have made on this rendering of Godzilla. But do remember that I had no references to work with... I know Godzilla doesn't have horizontal lines running across the neck and belly area, but I guess I put that in so he wouldn't look like a giant green blob, heheh. Is his tail segmented? I dunno... The plates or spikes on his back are really different than the original... I guess my time, back in 7th grade, from drawing the New York version of Godzilla rubbed off onto this one, kinda...

This drawing was another experimentation with colored pencils as well as a commemoration for the success of the Godzilla series, which by now has stopped any newer developments and ended with the movie titled, "Godzilla: Final Wars"--to which I'd like to see sometime. Hopefully this picture doesn't come to a big disappointment to all you Kaiju and Godzilla fans, for that wasn't intentional...

Though the spines look slightly innaccurate, the texture is pretty much flawless and more than makes up for it. Dont worry about his chubbiness, he did seem to have put on some weight in Godzilla vs SpaceGodzilla.

The tail seems off...
but who am I to say...
But the chubby thing is yes he does look a little ...Plump
And the whole haveing his hand over his belly just highlights it even more
But otherwise great pic

Heheh, thanx for pointing those out. Man, I really need to watch some more Godzilla movies or something... I want to draw another Godzilla/Gojira picture sometime, so hopefully I'll get it right. My excuse for this abomination: lack of reference pictures, heheh. Thanx for the comment and critique (^-^)!

My cousin used to have a toy gojira which looked pretty much like that. The legs and tummy were a little smaller, though, but otherwise it looked like that.

Thanx (^-^)! I wish I had a Godzilla toy I coulda used for reference, heheh. I know I didn't do justice to him at all... But maybe I can come up with a better one next time...

here's someting I don't usually see.. he seems a bit too chubby, the buts about the biggest flaw I see and it's not very big I love the texture on him... and I see he's about to blast the crap out of a section of the city o.o
NO idea why, but for some reason, this makes me think of the Ninja Turtles.... just.. thought i'd state that... He doesn't look like one.. but.. ah, whatever

Ah, I get what you mean. I guess I did make him too chubby... I was probably going for a dramatic perspective kind of picture, veiwing at some kind of angle to where he looks bigger than he actually is, but he ended up being fat, heheh. Well, I usually don't notice these kinds of things until others point 'em out... Thanks a lot for your input (^-^)!

Ninja Turtles? Maybe it's too much green... Heheh.
