Publicity still from the 1971 Daiei monster film 'Gamera vs. Zigra', in which the eponymous monster stars face off at the bottom of the sea. Zigra swims in from the upper right corner, all sharp angles and metallic scales and toothy, parrot-like beak, firing at Gamera with a ray from a crystal nestled between its beak and nose. Gamera, heroically defending a bathyscaphe containing the film's unseen human cast, blasts off from the sea floor with his rear rocket jets. Black and white, 8x10, portrait aspect.

Gamera is covered in bugs and having a difficult time. Please keep him in your thoughts.

Digital illustration of the Cyclogenesis fan designs for Zigra and Viras.

They are dramatically posed in front of a wave crashing over rocks, trying to look intimidating and cool.

Another poster adjacent drawing for Cyclogenesis. This time it’s both of the loathsome evil (semi)aquatic aliens.

Everything about this scene from Gamera vs. Gyaos is just incredible. Like it might very well be the best kaiju movie of the 1st Monster Boom. I love the abstract unreality of stuff like the TV being possessed by Gyaos' green glow

Thanks again @afrozenpizza.bsky.social for redoing the subs for this

Digital illustration of the Cyclogenesis fan designs for Gamera and Viras.

Gamera is shown from the torso up and is grasping at a bright light in her chest with a fearful expression. There is a plume of smoke obscuring her lower body. Gamera is portrayed as a dark grey turtle with large spikes on her elbows and prominent tusks. Her eyes are bright blue and there are seams throughout her body that emit the same blue glow. 

Viras is shown from the neck up behind Gamera, he has a menacing grin. Viras is portrayed as an alien squid with 6 red eyes, a beak, and a 3 prong crest on his head. He is covered in gold plating and has wires hanging off of his body. There is a bright light behind him.

The background is an abstract symmetrical pattern in blue, it is built around the bio-hazard and radioactive symbols.

An acrylic painting of Kong locked in battle with a Tyrannosaurus (deliberately depicted as a three-fingered "retrosaur") in one of the jungles of Skull Island. Kong has one hand on the dinosaur's throat, pushing the powerful jaws away from himself, while the big lizard has one of its feet pressed into Kong's body, trying to throw all its weight on him.

seeing this made me remember the first time I watched Vs. Zigra. it was a poor quality mp4 off of youtube with audio so bad it gave everyone I watched it with a headache. Despite that, it quickly became my fav kaiju movie. Although now i usually opt for the bluray when I want to rewatch it haha

I didn't get to make a full-fledged piece for Gamera's 60th, but I did crank out this doodle sketch!

An acrylic painting of Gamera fighting his rogues' gallery (from the Showa-era), consisting of Barugon, Gyaos, Viras, Guiron, Jiger, and Zigra. In the background is an erupting volcano.

A fun detail I added to the piece is putting a reflective glint over Gamera's pupil, but not for the other monsters. As they are the villains of the series, I felt doing this gave their eyes a harsh and unkind expression.
