LEGION redesign

LEGION redesign. The second redesign done along with fellow artist Jared Modina. https://www.artstation.com/jaredmodina
Here I attempted to make Legion a bit more agile. While the original is peak kaiju design, its suit wasn't exactly full of dynamic range of motion. I imagined a version that could maneuver around Gamera, quickly striking with its appendages, mostly sharp claws and spikes. Able to crawl low to the ground, to get at Gameras legs, or hoist its massive body high and tall, to tower over Gamera. I made the area around its head capable of extreme maneuverability, almost like giant hands, that can expand and contract at will. I gave her a worm like, 'Alien Queen' egg sack, that can expel thousands of baby Legion critters during a battle. My inspirations here were crustaceans of all sorts, as well as insects. I definitely tried to retain the look and feel of the original forms. And, as random as it may sound, I called from an old school giant robot anime called 'Dragonar' for some of the design in the head, and thru out. It's always been one of my favorite mech designs, and for some reason it was in my mind heavily while working on this.
