Currently struggling to survive as an artist with the ATL film industry tanking so hard over the last two years - my career in set dec is essentially dead. I'd really like to keep making my weird monster nonsense tho so any support folks can offer is hugely appreciated!! πŸ’–

This movie and Godzilla King of the Monsters dropping the same year and both being so CONTEMPTIBLY BAD just about killed me. 2019 completely destroyed my interest in blockbusters forever.

Has anyone ever acknowledged that the PokΓ©mon Umbreon's design motif is literally just the OG form of Ultraman Ace's Yapool? This is not a callout - I LOVE IT - but also I feel insane.

Film industry collapsed. I don't miss the hours but dang I miss my set dec paychecks. 😭

Honestly I think this is my favorite single Shin Godzilla artwork I've ever encountered. It turns up in my feed periodically and I'm always totally mesmerized by it.

Goofy little manga style piece inspired by my friend @thxpup.bsky.social and her love for Chibi Godzilla. I may do some more with this later but I'm tired of working on it today so I'm putting a pin in those other ideas and just sharing it as-is for now.

I am genuinely so obsessed with this movie. Probably my favorite animated movie of all time, honestly. I frequently bounce off of more unfiltered Oshii stuff but his proclivities told through the lens of Takahashi's goofy settting and characters REALLY hits.

I started sketching that Sachiel like a year ago when I was in the midst of rewatching Eva for the first time since college and I only just finally painted it yesterday. πŸ˜‚

There's a lot that's not super applicable to my process since I work fully analog but I've never found your videos difficult to understand?? Sounds like a skill issue on their part to me.

Another creature design commission! The request was for an Ultra-style villainess that read as feminine without being arbitrarily super sexualized and I wound up taking a lot of inspiration from the Opabinia, one of my favorite Cambrian sea creatures.

In the meantime, Texas does show up multiple times in the Ultra series. The Ultraman X movie has Ultraman Ginga fighting a monster in either Houston or San Antonio, I don't remember which, and the opening of an episode of Ultraman Blazar features a monster attack at a "Texas Teaterium" plant. πŸ˜‚

Man, I was always SO CONFUSED when this guy and Mogera showed up in this game when I played it as a kid. I was also really bad at it and never got past them to see any of the monsters I actually recognized. πŸ™ƒ

I made prints of this for my Godzilla Day sale because I am not of sound mind. I should probably list them online for the three other Gezora nerds out there.
