I’d really love to see a revival of this!
This is Chris Rahn’s version:
This is actually Steve Prescott’s rendition of Tiamat!
Either they’re super close to getting it or they get it and don’t want it.
I really feel this. I recently watched an interview Joe Bob Briggs did with Eli Roth where Roth said part of the appeal of the quirky Italian horror films is that they reflect a time before everything was boardroomed into a sphere, and that stuck with me. The imperfections inform the character.
I love Q, and I would say that the only part of Q that’s particularly schlocky is Q themselves (and that’s only because of production constraints on the effects). It’s a really well written and performed movie, Michael Moriarty’s great in it!
Like, I know most of these movies are like solid 3/10s on IMDb. I’m sure they’re arguably cynical in their own ways, but I admire them, dammit! They might be awkward and sloppy schlockjobs, but that doesn’t mean they’re not art!
I know, there’s more going on in the world.
I know, this is a weird hill to die on.
I’m gonna do it anyway.
Watching people talk down to B-Z grade monster movies daily with balled fists.
Holy Christ, and I thought Palworld was blatant!
”Here, Kong, you get a nice moving story where you find your new home and have a connection to humanity and you’re generally the hero.”
“Very cool! Do I beat Godzilla?”
“You find a cool axe that glows!”
“Do I… do I at least survive the fight?”
“Oh yeah, they defibrillate you in time.”
Mutant head.
Practicing some more with penciling. Smooth Bristol is probably my favorite paper, it picks up fine marks most other papers I’ve used don’t.
Dino Dragon 2026.
Added a photoshop body to a procreate head render. The head got the same amount of time as the rest of the body, around 6 hours for each (12 total).
I feel you on this. I used to be fairly active in the Godzilla community, right up until people argued to me that the Showa era was the nadir of the series due to its inherent camp.
People aren’t always serious people, even if they think they are.
It depends, but generally I go by focus— the head takes around 3 or 4 hours to detail, the neck and bust 2, each other body part is about an hour after that.
The one on the left was unusually dense, the head by itself took 9 hours.
Two D&D red dragons
This is being done scale by scale! I don’t tend to use alphas because I generally want my detail to be pretty precise and intentional.
Yeah! They become big banded horns when he evolves.
It’s been a long time, but when I was little I really liked Pokémon, around when Gen1 and Gen2 were new.
A little more scalework on the practice dummy:
It’s all rotten to the core. This whole thing we’ve taken for granted is end-to-end compromised.
I don’t even want to see it. It’ll be tainted, infected by their rot.
Netflix is dropping its bid for Warner Bros., meaning Paramount’s bid is now unopposed. The presumption is that Warner Bros. will go to Paramount/Skydance.
This means the MonsterVerse, like all of WB’s properties, will be owned by a pro-fascist family, and that is not something I’ll support.
I love Godzilla x Kong, it’s actually my favorite MonsterVerse entry. This is in response to tonight’s news.
Well, it certainly sounds like it matches the quality drop, even if it doesn’t retcon anything. I just read the synopsis, and it’s… pretty unreal, I’ll say that much. They’ve got some damn nerve.
That wouldn’t, won’t be so bad. These ghouls have been begging to clot for a long time now. Let it die.
I think that was it. My last attachment to modern mainstream film has been cut. I am officially an old-movies-only guy.
I really wasn’t sure, I haven’t seen it in a long time, and the fact they redesigned the snakes to look more like their real-world counterparts cast some doubt in my mind!
This was originally the second of two comments— in the first I asked if you thought Boa vs Python was actually a crossover of Boa and Python, then I did a cursory search, found it was, felt like a moron, and deleted the first comment.
But to answer your question… I guess Tremors 4? If for no other reason than I like Tremors 4 and nothing else is coming to me?
