@tsukimusha.bsky.social was kind enough to answer some questions about the Godzilla alt arts including the Art styles, references and what card he used himself as a reference for!

❤️🔥 Burning Godzilla
My final new alt art for Godzilla: Reign of the Kaiju, launching March 13th! I created 15 new illustrations in all. It's been so awesome to meet fans and sign cards and playmats all weekend at Universus Worlds Championship!

☣️ Hedorah
One of my favorite things about him is that he emerges from the water as a giant blob of darkness, clearly inspired by one of my favorite yokai, Umi Bozu! I had fun emulating that energy.

🪴 Biollante
This gigantic overgrown Akira-esque abomination of a plant with Little Shop of Horror vibes that has a glowing abdomen and spits poisonous bile through rows and rows of teeth was tricky to depict but a lot of fun!

Today's the prerelease for Godzilla: Reign of the Kaiju at @universusccg.bsky.social World Championship event in Dallas! People are already starting to pull my cards! I had fun doing the Japanese style cloud patterning and lightning effects in this one.
🌌 Space Godzilla
I wanted to depict him during the final battle at the end of Godzilla vs. Space Godzilla, but I had to balance various elements - it was the vibrant color in the background that really brought this all together in the end.

🐦🔥 Fire Rodan
This was one of my favorite cards to draw in the new set cuz I just enjoy drawing Japanese flames and special effects so much 😆
@universusccg.bsky.social
🦋 Mothra
It was really fun to have another go at painting Mothra - this time I depicted using her last resort technique of releasing "scales", a poisonous gold powder, from her wings - a technique she only uses if she knows she's going to die.

My illustration of Gigan in @universusccg.bsky.social Godzilla: Reign of the Kaiju set launching March 13th! I had fun depicting Gigan letting out a roar, set amongst a space background to really accentuate those alien vibes lol 👽
Here is Anguirus, Godzilla's first cinematic nemesis. I decided to depict him by Osaka Castle as seen in Godzilla Raids Again. I was actually able to use my own photo reference of the castle from my 2019 trip to Japan!

Today's the prerelease for Godzilla: Reign of the Kaiju at @universusccg.bsky.social World Championship event in Dallas! People are already starting to pull my cards! Here's my take on classic Godzilla from the original 1954 film. I used digital sumi-e techniques as a nod to the black and white!
3 more cards revealed today! Here's my art for Mecha Godzilla Kiryu Modified, King Ghidorah, and Destoroyah releasing in UniVersus's Godzilla: Reign of Kaiju booster CCG on March 13th!!

Thank you!
Here it is side-by-side with my Ghost of Tsushima fanart from 2021
The cartouche on the left reads "The Lone Wolf of Ezo" and on the right translates poetically to "crimson and gold, on the night of the blazing tree, from beyond death, an Onryō was born"
🐺"The Lone Wolf of Ezo"

My Mag haul for the year. Mostly wanted to build up my Atari collection (almost doubled it!) on the game front this time around. Artists that I got stuff from as follows:
@tsukimusha.bsky.social
@redwiresgo.bsky.social
@doviroth.bsky.social
@argibi-art.bsky.social
The only thing I won was a bunch of reading
Ahh thank you so much!!
Screenshot of text: unfuck google drive by shooting gemini Hey folks! Google is fucking you via sneaky enshittification again! Want the shit in your google drive to load instantly again, instead of taking for-fucking-ever? Open your gdrive (web OR app) Settings > Manage Apps Gemini was checked "use as default" (and i sure the fuck didn't set it that way, this was a silent push) Nuke that, and suddenly, folders that took up to a minute to populate and sort do so in a fraction of a second.
