When will you post something of your own design? You're very good at looking at a screen shot and turning it into a comic-portrait. But when will we see your own art/ thoughts on these creatures? I only ask this because I used to do the same when I was in my teens... but when are you planning on evolving into your own artist?

wolfguy

I wish I could edit that, but that feature isn't available. I'm not making fun of you or disparaging you, it takes a good deal of talent to paint those sort of portraits. But what I'm asking is will we ever see any original works?

Huge-Ben

@Wolfguy,

Who said I use references? It's hard to believe that I don't, but, if you want proof, check out my YouTube video. I don't remember the link but, go to YouTube and type in Godzilla artwork video part 1. You'll see me working on King Ghidorah. As for my own Godzilla artwork, I'm working on that now as I'm creating my own comic book. 

wolfguy

Your very artwork says you use references. These are all scenes from films. Now, I guess I can give you the whole "I have a picture perfect memory and can draw these without trouble." But how about something original? Just a picture.

@Wolfguy,

You don't have to take my word for nothing. When I can get the time I will show you my own original work. As a matter of fact, I think I already have. You see, I remember posting my own Godzilla design for 2016. You yourself commented on it and said "looks like something out of dark horse comics." So, I don't take your words to heart. I find them as either complimants, or, ways to improve. So, basically your telling me that one can't have memory that good? As an artist, visualizing things in your head is what always comes to mind. So, as a result, when thinking of a particular scene from a film and drawing it for what you remember can't be done? Not true. 

The fact that I draw things like movie stills is something no other artists have done. Look at Bob Eggleton. He draws things that look so much like the suits themselves and I don't ever hear anyone complain about his work. You've got to admit, his Godzilla 2000 with the ship in his mouth looks identical to the scene in the film itself. He's the guy who influenced me and inspired me and has lead me to the artist I am today. 

To me, creating artwork is fun, enjoyable, and helps take my mind off things. I haven't drawn like I have in the past due to work, and a bad relationship that ended and left a black hole in my heart. Anyway, you will get that artwork soon. I don't care if I have to post it or send it in the PM.

@ Wolfguy - I think that Huge-Ben is already HIS OWN artist. If this is his style, and if he wants to go on with it, let him be! I started pretty slow myself and it took a lot of time to gain some skills, so i know the struggle that most fresh artists are going trough.

Huge-Ben

Regardless of everything, I thank you all for your support! :)

To support you Ben i am going to buy the magazine.

Huge-Ben

GorillaGodzilla,

You better get to eBay and Amazon immediately. There isn't no telling how many are left to order. They were selling like hot cakes when they released.
