Here's the guide (not in order of importance) -
1. Joe Mad (and other amazing graphic comic art).
2. Guyver, i.e. Yoshiki Takaya's wonderful character designs.
3. Ultraman (especially Tiga) and the cool-looking/badly-written comic by Khoo Fuk Lung
4. Bob Eggleton, and ironically, more his "realistic" style than his fantasy work.
5. Art Adams and his ladies (not to mention another G artist!)
6. GO GO POWER RANGERS (or Zyuranger, whatever).
7. Beast Wars (and Transformers in general)
8. Legend of Zelda (Ocarina, of course)
9. Will Stout (and the grand Dino-art-genre!)
10. Good ol' Steve...
11. King Kong 2005 (love it or hate it, all of the cool art and concepts made for this movie put me on the path I am today. DEAL WITH IT
)12. Spiderman! (particularly Ultimate and the Spectacular show)
13. Dragon Dragon! Rock the Dragon! DRAGON BALL Z.
14. Jeff Rebner and his Rebnerwerks. Definitely a personal inspiration and friend!.
15. And, of course, good ol' GOJIRA and the kaiju genre as a whole.

I like how you used the Godzilla vs Mothra/ The Thing poster for your influence map. I think they should have saved that poster for when Godzilla vs Biollante came out. I mean, Mothra isn't a plant!

I like the choice of background. People must have been a bit pissed back in the day when they realized the "Thing" was a giant butterfly. Nothing against Mothra, in fact I'd have preffered she actually be in the poster. No honesty in advertising I guess.

I'm not quite sure how to tell you this, but under your influence map is THE THING, and it's too terrible to reveal!

I've been seeing this meme around a lot and there are two things I have to say about yours. First, great set of influences! Second, I have to say that out of all the influence maps I've seen so far, yours is probably the most unique I've seen! Everyone else has a plain old grid, but you did some neat customization with having the background interact with the grid and using it as one of your influences as well! Top notch, good sir.

I love Art Adams work with a passion, especially his short lived Monkeyman and O'brien series. I wish he would revisit it one day. It was pure silver age awesome. 
Also, I loved the Spectacular Spider-Man show. Wish Marvel didn't screw the pooch by canceling it. 
Excellent job on this influence map.
Hhhmm, had a weird thought after spotting your nod to Steve Irwin. What would you say about a tribute character that focused on Kaiju creatures? Just saying.

I like it much better than a lot of the other influence maps I've seen so far. [Yours is the seventh I've seen so far.]
