  [ Hello! If you don’t already know me, which the probability of those chances are next to nothing, I am an ecstatic daikaiju fan, especially knowing that one day I can create more exposure for my own projects that are inspired from tokusatsu-styled films.

  It’s great being in a community of people who share the same interests, and this feeling has truly been expressed these past few years. But besides the weird part of the community, I love this feeling of openness I can have with fans who share similar tastes. My interest has always been in bringing back great aspects of cinematography, such as in the Daimajin series, and sense of scale with the respects of great miniature work ranging throughout Japanese film history.

  I think that everyone has the ability to mimic these great attributes and apply it to their work, but give it their own unique spin. I also believe that these films had truly given me a different perspective on film, and in regards to these wonderful directors of legendary monsters, I can help bring about a new generation of the old tokusatsu daikaiju genre. However, it all starts off with small steps, and a helping hand.

  Thank you for reading, I am grateful for an opportunity to collaborate on this very fun project featuring Christopher’s and my own creations that we hold to heart. Now to see them go up against the likes of Gfantis! We hope you enjoy!   ]

  Heya! I am Christopher, but many know me as Chickenman. The kaiju genre has been a large part of my life for a long time and it makes me happy to be part of such a friendly group of sci-fi fans.

  I got hooked on giant monsters as a child when I watched Godzilla Against MechaGodzilla one night. The story was fantastic and the very concept of these large creatures living in our defenseless world interested me greatly. Over the years I viewed a massive amount of giant monster flicks, eventually causing me to work on my own kaiju and stories. I tend to create more outgoing monsters, unique creations whose light-hearted nature were inspired by television shows such as Zone Fighter and Ultraman. My favorite creation of all is of course Bubbles, the average goldfish who pilots a giant 95 meter mech suit.

  I hope you enjoy my work, I had fun writing and collaborating and hope to inspire others to get cracking on their own kaiju characters!
