Artist's Comments

My original monster: Oranoko

Height: 40ft

Weight: 29,010 lbs (thx to hypergojira for the help)

Weapons: large hand claws, fangs, brute strength, animalistic fighting

abilities: Has severaly hightened senses in hearing, touch, smell, can feel vibrations in the pads on his feet allowing for enemy or food detection, bone platelets in hid (like that south american giant sloth)

weaknesses: Has no eyes therefor cannot see

Origin: This monster roams the fores of a small island south of japan. Not much is know about this kaiju as it has not attacked the mainland, nor has it appeared to be a threat in anyway to the neighboring islands. The islands near his call him Oranoko the ancient one. Through satelight imaging the monsters island appears to only hold on of these monsters. It appears to have made his home in the court yard of a small castle what happened to the once inhabeters is unknown.

Very nice and unique.

FYI, assuming the your beast has the same density as almost all living things on earth, this is any easy way to calculate weight:

Pretend your beast was 6' tall and estimate a weight (say 300#). Then divide the real height by 6' (40'/6' = 6.67). Then cube that number (6.67x6.67x6.67 = 296.7). Finally, mutiply the number by your estimate weight at 6' (296.7x300 = 29010 lbs). Thus, I would guess that your beast is actually 29,010 lbs (or 14.5 tons or 13.2 metric tons). If you want your beast to be a different density adjust the 6' high number up or down (twice as dense 600';).

This only works, of course, if you can estimate the weight of 6' high version of your kaiju. Personally I find it much easier to imagine the weight of 6' (or 2 meter) beast since I see these everyday! After that it is simply math, volume (and thus mass if density remains the same) increases at the cube of the difference in height. A 2'x2'x2' cube has a volumw of 8', but a 4'x4'x4' cube (twice as big) has a volume of 64' (8x larger or 2x2x2). I hope this helps.

Whoa, those claws look like they could dish out some serious damage! Very neat, a blind kaiju isn't something most would think of!

People think I'm witty. I'm not witty, I'm sarcastic. Wit is Wit, sarcasm is being nasty with a smile.

thx im really glad i had a reason to draw this guy again, i havent drawn him since i was twelve and im glad to say that the design still feels right to me, even if it had to have some minor tweaks.

A sasquatch on steroids...that's a strong concept.

I'm sorry, but I have now left DeviantArt. You can still see what's on my profile page if you'd like.

I should have added this: The shading on the fur really helps this image.
