Feudal Japan King Ghidorah (Emperor Ghidorah) Redesign Concept

Here he is, Feudal Japan Ghidorah. My #1 most requested on my list. I absolutely had so much fun with sculpting King Ghidorah and a great start to dragon season.

For my take, I used Ghidorah 2019 as a reference for the overall body since that’s my only favorite thing about Ghidorah 2019. The most important thing I wanted when designing Ghidorah is that he needed to resemble eastern dragon elements since he is the Japanese dragon of the franchise and Japan’s monster. Not only I looked at various eastern dragon art but I also used foxes and wolves as a reference for the shape of Ghidorah’s heads. In the East most of our dragons resemble serpent like foxes, wolves, giant turtles or koi fish. Another thing that was missing in Ghidorah 2019 was he does not have any lion hair around his neck since majority of eastern dragons do have a lion’s mane. Another element to make him more eastern dragon was give Ghidorah dragon whiskers and a bit of a beard.

Also I made each of Ghidorah’s head a bit different from eachother since they’ll have different personalities which was one of the things I wished Ghidorah 2019 had. Finally I did my best to make Ghidorah as golden as much as possible because that’s one of the things I was very disappointed about Ghidorah 2019’s redesign. With the addition of giving him more scales and a bit spikier since Ghidorah 2019’s overall look was a bit flat and unfinished. Over all I wanted Emperor Ghidorah too look majestic but very evil within.
