Armageddon concept

Description

    Well, I was complaining about RagnRok's design a little bit ago, and that got me thinking about his mentor, the ancient earth titan Armageddon.  I was looking at him, and I thought "why does he look like a big cat crossed with a dinosaur?" After all, mammals didn't really exist for billions of years.  Gigantis was like a dinosaur, and Mothra isn't too out of place either.  I don't know, it was just weird.
   
    This version of Armageddon takes influence from monitor lizards, as well as some early reptiles that predated the dinosaurs.  I thought that this posture, lower to the ground and actually dragging its belly as it goes, works both as a representation of his connection to the earth, as well as a realistic way for such a huge kaiju to carry its weight.  Though he'd stay lower to the ground when he's moving, Armageddon would hold his head high when not in a fight, allowing him to retain the wise mentoring look that he's known for.  In motion, I imagine he would move very much like the Lagiacrus from the monster hunter franchise.  Either way, this concept would need a lot more polish before it really works, but I think it works a little better than the big cat design did.  
    
    That's another thing, RagnRok is definitely retaining the big cat body type, both to make it more visually distinct from Armageddon, as well as to symbolize the ways the earth has changed.  I'm working on that as well, and obviously RagnRok's design is more relevant to KWR.  

Anyway, whether you like this or hate it, after what happened at the end of KW it doesn't matter much anyway, but I had a little fun sketching this out.  The artwork for the next chapter of KWR is done, featuring Kira (who may be becoming my favorite) as well as a glimpse at one of the villains! stay tuned!
