Description
The early drafts of what we know here as "Godzilla 1985" , featured an opponent kaiju bearing the name of arguably the most popular of never-realized monsters: Bagan.Most of Bagan's fans refer to the existing model from the "Godzilla Studio Tour" ROM that depicts Bagan as a sort of Godzilla-like creature, who is larger and has menaced both the King of the Monsters as well as Mothra in other scripts.
Using the small illustration (like other unmade kaiju I've done) I decided to start off with the original concept: a combined totem pole monster of a kaiju dragon, simian and fish. I tried to implement an aesthetic as I have before with a "1984" feel of hoe a monster suit would appear on screen next to the Godzilla suit of that time.
I will incorporate this into my next piece, the original "Return of Godzilla". Stay tuned!

To me though, Bagan I think works best as a Mothra villain. Like to me, he could have been Mothra's King Ghidorah... Instead of King Ghidorah (._. )

I completely agree with that. I'm not sure what Bagan does in terms of offense, but he seems like he'd be kind of blah standing next to Godzilla. Mothra on the other hand would be a cool opponent!

Totem Bagan! NICE!
I know what you mean by "1984" feel. It's totally there in the eyes. I honestly thought the new Godzilla movie was going to be a lot like the original draft of The Return Of Godzilla! Pretty glad it didn't though.

I resisted this version for a while, until I drew it. Now I love the idea of a combined monster!
