Description
This one is a tad early, I've had more time to draw now that finals are over. So King Caesar was an interesting guy to figure out. I kept him bipedal, so he can do his marital arts like he's supposed to. Some might say that since he's a shisa or foo dog/lion thingy and that he should be on four legs. Well...there's a reason the guys at Toho originally called him 'king' shisa. He stands head and shoulders above his fellow shisa's. Besides, how is he supposed to have any credibility to his name if the other two monsters with king in their name ( King Ghidorah, Godzilla is the 'king' of the monsters ) have to bend over to see him? His original legs were too humaniod so I made them anthromorphic. He could go on all fours if he wanted to, its just easier to deliver roundhouse kicks when your standing upKing Caesar's bit of humor is derived from the internet phenomenon known as the lol cat. He's pretty feline looking so he gets to call it his own. I was originally going to use 'followerz' instead of 'movez' as King Caesar is one of the kaiju that have a religous following (i.e Mothra). But with his martial arts vibe, I thought 'movez' would suit him better.

That was the intention, he'd be much more effective with them I imagine.

Ahh, the kaiju that got me into kaiju! I love this take on him. His face looks wise and the martial stance fits perfectly. The red gem does suit him better, and the blazing eyes say not to mess with him.
I really love this one.

King Caesar should have had a bit more flair than he's been shown. Final wars did not have enough head butts and round house kicks! (for the kaiju anyway ).

Before Godzilla could control magnetic fields and defeat MechaGodzilla, he first had to master the 'wax on, wax off' technique. They didn't show that part in the movie though, time constraints .

Almost perfect take on him. Has and elder Japanese look to his face and manages to look VERY regal. Wonderfully in-character, even if he's less cute and fluffy and more proud than before. I kinda liked the cute, fluffy version, but that's just me. XP
Bipeds, quadrapeds, shisas and whatever, besides his kung fu skills, Seesar should remain a bipedal because Seesar HIMSELF is a biped, and changing that hurts his character immensely. He's in the vein of humanoid monsters and should behave as one.
I think the joke is prettymuch perfect for him. Appropriately derivitive and QUITE amusing.

Thanks Gregole. I over thought the reason he's on two legs didn't I? I guess I'm expecting an arguement or something...got to stop doing that. I've been wondering whether I focus too much on design and less on the funny which is the purpose of this series. I'm glad he came out great on both ends.

Yes lol, lots of monsters. I've made it my personal mission to do them all as a tribute to the movies that inspired me as a kid. You gotta love Caesar though, he's so fluffy...and tilely... .
