I think they should hold onto these other designs and use them as variations of the species. like how we have crocodiles with thick snouts and bulky bodies, then crocs with thin snouts and skinny bodies.
I feel bad for Fosphera. I think she looks beautiful and cool. I also like the original design for Shimo being a member of the Titanus Gojira species.❤
considering they scrapped the differant godzilla design for shimo it wouldnt be that hard to assume they could do this for future godzilla movies, maybe for space goji?
I feel like shimo definitely could've been scarier! I think her being so ancient could've lead to an even creepier design. Either way, I'm happy with what we got.
The Ancient Godzilla that turned into Shimo is an awesome design that could be reused, and I'd love to see Fosphera given an actual role in a film or show. Maybe have it be revealed that she's an extraterrestrial Titan like King Ghidorah was and in-fact could have accidentally led KG to Earth in the past. Also, the fish-like/aquatic Verticines remind me of something you'd have seen in the Subnautica franchise.
I got to meet Jared Krichevsky, the artist who helped finalize the designs for Skar King, Shimo, Godzilla Evolved, Mechagodzilla, and even Mechagodzilla from Ready Player One, at G-Fest this year. He seemed like a really nice guy who was thrilled to get to work with these giant monsters, and he even signed a print of Godzilla Evolved for me! I also asked him if he took any inspiration from Godzilla 2000 for Godzilla Evolved and he did confirm the inspiration. I love these early concept designs, especially Ice Godzilla (I would have loved to see another of Godzilla's species in some form or another), but I'm really happy with all we got. So excited for Godzilla x Kong 3!
Wingard's claim that the plan to always use Mothra doesn't mean he wouldn't film the movie using Phosphera first. Like he said, they had to wait in the rights approval. You're still gonna make the film in the meantime with what you've got. So yeah, you're gonna film with Phosphera first and make changes after if your wish to use Mothra gets granted
If Mothra was always the original plan, would he not have used her name during screening and only put in Phosphura's as voice-overs? Additionally he should have remembered to change the Phosphura mural if he was so set on getting the rights to Mothra.
@@yissibiiyte It is what it is I think he always intended Mothra to be in the movie in his mind, but it didn’t seem like that was going to happen until he got the support of the people who watched the test screenings
@yissibiiyte I already covered that. Just because Mothra was always the plan does not mean you can execute that plan. The studio would not allow any director to spend time and money on a character they do not yet have the rights to. Phosphera was the safest bet at the time. What Wingard wanted and what he could actually do are different things. So again, yes his plan was always to have Mothra in the film. But he didn't have Mothra yet.
To be honest, they should have stayed with the godzilla design for shimo. I see Scar King especially enjoying having a godzilla as a pet after their fall
Titanus Phosphora design is amazing & beautiful, but sadly she didn't appear alongside Mothra in GxK The New Empire. I hope Phosphora will officially appear in the GxK 3rd sequel movie & see her become an ally to Kong & Shino, right👍
I enjoyed this video on the creatures that we didn't see in the new empire phosphera I would say would have been cool to see maybe someday in a future movie.
I still think Shimo’s design is awesome and I still think it could be possible that Godzilla and her could share a common ancestor, but of course a white female quadruped Titanus Gojira would have been cool.
Absolutely wild that the Drownviper was going to be a mix of Warbat with the snake body and the Muto with the head shape and eyes. I would love to see more Muto-adjacent monsters like that
Could Phosphora atleast be an ally to apear alongside with Mothra in future films? That will be cool, although I would change the body, like adding scaly fur all around the body with muscles shown to show it's strength and 4 long antennaes resembling a crest on her head. Hopefully that makes it unique enough.
The first unused shimo design I kinda like, also I wonder how the monsterverse is going to introduce the Xiliens alien race, seeing Godzilla and Kong 1v1 every single titan would be badass
Fospheria would be cool if they made it an alien that people translate to angel. Have her in place of mothra would have made it different and linked to ghidorah since he was also an alien. And maybe they are responsible for the hallow earth energy source which caused the titans to exist. And I would also have preferred an ancient much bigger older gohi species. I like shimu but I'm not a fan of her design and usage. And it would have been cool to see godzilllas reaction to seeing another one of his species.
The original monster villain from Kong Skull Island was supposed to be amphibious and serpentine. I guess they did research because the Drown Vipers fit the EXACT description. Also, if dinosaurs existed in Hollow Earth, what would they be like?
Honestly I love seeing these unused monsters from this concept art book of Godzilla x Kong the new Empire in a future movie TV show or video games Comic they look very interesting you know legendary should make a book about all the monsters of Monsterverse.
Phosphera looks way better in the size chart page, looking more Owl like than the winged alien goat we saw at first. I think with tweaking of the proportions, posture, blending some traits in better, she could fit in among the Hollow Earth Pantheon. In fact, rather than waste the idea, I'd love to see her team up with Mothra. And I do believe Phosphera always was meant to be a fallback, because so far we've not seen any concept art of her other than the two leaks and the size chart, there's more Mothra in the art book than Phosphera. I feel like some of the unused Skar King traits could have gone into the other apes.
I would have loved to see Fosphera. The way they brought in Mothra in GxK is tied very poorly into KOTM and I think Fosphera is just a cool idea in general
Ah, no wonder Mothra felt like she was shoehorned in. Fosphera is a sick design, would not have complained at all. Feel like we got robbed with Skar King tbh. His final design is really... normal? Like he's just some guy. I like the bulky version with the crown way more.
Skar king could have way crazier designs like he's ribcage protruding from he's back or having the bones of kongs and other species as armor but i like the final design same as shimo as well
I’m hoping they keep the base evolved design but just add some of the chunk back, especially in the legs. It would look so good with white dorsal plates too. - Alastair
Did the book had any information about the gigantic monster that acted as a bridge between two lands that Kong and Suko crossed? Because I really can't stop imagining how truly big this monster is.
I personally think he should've won the first encounter with Kong to set him up as a worthy adversary, but otherwise I thought he was a pretty cool villain.
@@Zilla1954 he just seemed like he could’ve been beaten any time they were fighting. If it’s supposed to be a team up movie then he should’ve been a lot tougher and all that. Just my thoughts.
@@bgrov40 I agree. I think he was a cool villain, but should've posed more of a threat (to Kong, at least, if not to Godzilla). Other than threat, I really like the concept of a dark-mirror, tyrannical counterpart to Kong. Also, I just really like his red design.
The style of the concept art for the Vertacine kinda reminds me of the Subnautica Below Zero concept art by Alex Rises (I think that’s how you say his last name, right?)
Is the Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire novelisation cannon? And if so when it says Shimo froze Ghidorah it doesn't apply to the Monsterverse cannon and Godzilla froze Ghidorah?
is it possible that Shimo might be a distant relative to Godzilla? if so, then that would mean Godzilla is no longer the last remaining member of his species. Also, isn't Titanus Doug a relative of Godzilla's species?
Shimo looked kinda dopy in the movie with its big snout. The Concept art of an Old Godzilla ancestor that has to walk on all 4s and is pale white with blue is so much better. It makes more sense as to why Godzilla had to evolve to fight it.
Mothra over Angel thing Final frog design was fine Vertacine was blah, so earlier design A 2nd Gojir!? I hate Shimo now. Scar turned out well enough Wingless Drownviper fo sho
My guess if Fosphera makes it into the MonsterVerse: She will be an alien kaiju that comes down to Earth as a protector. And her species was the inspiration for accounts of the Seraphim due to their angelic appearance.
Why don't the use Methuselah??? Glowing eyes (power of some kind), And bigger than Shimo. It was a mountain!!! Under used. BIG TIME. Also, Rodan. Godzilla let him live. G could save him from Methuselah, giving them a bond. Then, MechaGhidorah shows up. I mean, we've jumped the shark, but landed perfectly. A Kaiju extravaganza is in order.
i'm feeling that white Godzilla design, that would've been ill sh*t if that was an evil species gojira with the same power freezing power but a lot more ferocious & not being controlled 🤔
Which of these UNSEEN monster designs is your favourite?
- Alastair
😀
Hello there!
Happy Monday Dangerville.
Idk
The other member of the gojira species I wish they had done that instead so that way goji could have a member and Kong would have a tribe
Man, the Skar King concepts were wild.
I already imagine him controlling Shimo with a rock guitar instead of a crystal.
I think they should hold onto these other designs and use them as variations of the species. like how we have crocodiles with thick snouts and bulky bodies, then crocs with thin snouts and skinny bodies.
the second ones are called “Gharial”s
I feel bad for Fosphera. I think she looks beautiful and cool. I also like the original design for Shimo being a member of the Titanus Gojira species.❤
Who knows maybe she'll one day be in a monsterverse movie or comic or book
She is actually in gxk as a cave carving in the iwis cave room.
Well she did got an Easter egg in the movie itself making the 4th unmade Godzilla monsters to be put on something
Hi
i thought that was snow godzilla
The reason the Drownviper and Vertacines looked so strange is because they were designed by Alex Ries, who previously worked on Subnautica
Brilliant artist!

Didn't Camazotz got thrown into the portal to the Hollow Earth?
Yes. Kong punched him back into the same cave that leads back to the Hollow Earth that Camazotz came out of.
Which means Camazotz could possibly return as a major villain ❤❤❤

They could have brought back an evil Fosphere who listen to Scar King orders and end up fighting against Mothra.

I kind of honestly want a more serious and darker tone for the new one
shimo as a frosty ancient gojira would’ve been better imo
