Description Alright boys and girls, today I have a special present for you. This wasn't originally part of my art trades but I felt that it would a nice way to say thanks. See, while I was cruising DA for a bit, I stumbled across the work of this wonderful individual . The dude makes some seriously awesome drawings of kaiju fights and scenery and he takes requests for a lot of what he's done on the subject. I'm sure a few of you have already seen or even had your characters used in his work by request and I was more than a little flattered when I saw that a monster I had designed 'Gareku' had been placed in a fight scene with Rogzor, which would be this guy [link]

So I got to talking with him and he asked me if I would like to color said linework. I agreed and some crazy odd number of weeks later here we are. So basically the pic translates into something like this:

-Gareku is the armored dragon kaiju in the foreground, he's a monster invented by ~Gareku and designed by your's truly with maybe some adjustments thrown in like those warble whiskers.

-Rogzor is the big golden armored mutha F'n badass that looks like he's about to tear Gareku a new asshole. He belongs to a faction of kaiju and monsters called 'The Planter Eaters' and him and five other kaiju along with an army of minions exist to do just that, eat planets and everything on them.

-The lines were drawn by DeadPoolrus, this is his drawing and if you want to see the original line art, go here. [link]

-I did the colors, thus it has a new life brought into it along with a sense of 'monsterpocalyptic' atmosphere.

Next project I'll probably have up is either Geckoro vs Volcanus (drawn now lol), or KaijuLord's Godzilla (contemplating whether to draw him again with a full background or use existing drawing and add background). We'll see.

Thanks, I've been practicing my cell shading. It works a lot faster and cleaner than the usual burn and dodge on one layer method I've been doing forever.

pencilears In reply to RenDragonClaw [2009-02-28 00:52:56 +0000 UTC]

yeah and it looks a lot neater, burn/dodge really has almost no place in simple coloring.

also it makes it easier to fix because you can put the shade/highlights on another layer.

I've been staring at this for a good ten minutes now and have only been able to think of one word that could sum up the entire thing...... awesome, simply awesome. I've only seen my work in color once by Kaijulord21 who I am forever grateful for and now you've given me this. I am literally at a lost for words and can't find any other words to express my gratitude other than thank you.

RenDragonClaw In reply to Deadpoolrus [2009-02-27 06:01:17 +0000 UTC]

Glad you think so man, and your very welcome . I'd be open to coloring more of your work but I got some other projects to worry about so I'll keep it on the back burner for now. With the amount of effort your put into your line work, they deserve to be in color or at least gradient shades.

I'd love to see more of my work colored by you but you do have alot on your plate and could never truely ask of you to put your stuff aside just to work on mine. But if you were, their is something at the top of my gallery right now that I know you would love see colored.

Weren't you going to do sketches of my kaiju first before you started drawing mine?Not trying to bother, just curious.

Rogzar looks funky.XP

RenDragonClaw In reply to Zillachary [2009-02-27 03:55:36 +0000 UTC]

Funny thing, they just...came out of my hand with utter spontainous combustion of muse and before I knew it I had the thing drawn already.

I did look at all the various versions of each one while I was drawing it though so you could say I was skipping a step. I'll still do the studies, I just happen to really love what came out for the final at the moment. Seriously, you'll love it when you see it .

Rogzor and his ilk are very classic showa in appearance with pot bellies and outlandish features befitting alien creatures in a vein smilar to Ultraman. Despite their slightly comical appearance they are extremely powerful and will thrash the shit out anything in their way in pursuit of all things edible...which is everything. I agree, he's utterly funktastic .

Alright, I eagerly await.

It's the funky monsters that will getcha'.Take Guilala, Gigan, Megalon, Hedorah, and various Ultraman/Gamera monsters for example.

God I know, that was freaking brutal. Liquid nitrogen for blood is just not playing fair . Its like fighting a Xenomorph adapted to cold enviroments. Good thing reptiles have a knack for bouncing back after 'hibernation'.

Eh, it wasn't the worst encounter he's had.Let's see Blagn-Blagn try to escape an exploding spaceship the size of Australia while under siege by Zhion the insane cyborg.
