Thanks. I hope it will see some action once we’ve moved into our new home!

Meanwhile I was busy re-painting a Kaiju toy I had bought several years ago at the evil bay, when I was totally hyped after seeing the first movie of the new Gamera trilogy. Awesome kaiju khaos. And much better filmed than anything I had seen in this regard.


So the model was already pretty good, but it lacked depth and details and so I took my brush to it!

Here is the result.

Now, I don’t know in which scale to use it.

It would make a very good monster (a.k.a. Super squiggoth) for Adeptus Titanicus, I guess, maybe too small for the new warlord titans.

Anyway, the models also works in 15mm and might even be cool for Rogue Traderish skirmishes.

Thank you, sir! It has been neglected a lot, I'm afraid. Been too busy in the last year.

Nice work on that - especially the shell.

That is very good.

Kaiju are often overlooked.

@ Vanviak & Ockman: Thanks guys. I'm really happy how he came out. The model is made from vinyl, so not ideal for painting and currently I only find time for painting (and taking pictures) in the night, so I only know how the model looks under daylight the next morning  lol

@ Ultravanillasmurf: I so totally agree! And while we have embrace mechas for nearly every single SF setting out there, there is nearly no universe with proper kaijus! I really don't understand this. They are huge monsters where designers could include all the stuff that might even look silly on fantasy demons!

I was surprised that the Great Womble did not bring out a Tyranid Kaiju for the Knight game when Pacific Rim came out.

Indeed! Though, to be fair, they did produce a couple of very kaijuesque minis for the old epic game. These were released pretty early and are fairly small by modern standards.
There is a 40k Chaos flyer that looks very much like a Mecharhodan and if it wasn't so expensive, I would have bought it by now.

I finished another kaiju. This is the not-Godzilla that came with the KS edition of CMON's Rising Sun. The sculpt is very shallow. Much more difficult to paint than the vinyl toy from Japan I posted above. Some details "flowed" into a shallow mess and didn't come out nicely.
Still the sculpt itself is awesome! It's a perfect kaiju for 15mm or smaller scales.
Excuse the bad picture, but after the dryest and hottest summer, we currently suffer from endless rain...and darkness. Autumn in August and I lack proper artificial light due to the packing for our next moving flats!

Keep up the good work, these Kaijus are really cool. Would love to see them rampage across a board!

As I said in another thread, I’m currently packing my minis into boxes to be moved to a new place. Therby I took a couple of pictures.

First a couple of ork bosses. Brilliant models from both GW and Knightmare Miniatures.
