Description Despite reassurances from many sources, Destroyah managed to reform and begin to lay waste to the lands of man again!  Godzilla was arriving to put the beast down but there was no one to help the poor city.  Until a mysterious human sized figure sized took to the sky and grew into the grinning punching robot kaiju Jet Jaguar!  The monstrous crustacean loomed over the still undersized robot, intent on spraying him with micro oxygen.  That's when the quick witted fighter leaped past the slashing claws and huge wings and seized a lumpy handful of monster flesh!  Unable to get a grip even with its thrashing pincer tail, Destroyah could only stomp and wail as Jet Jaguar rode the towering beast like a rodeo rider, bringing his solid metal fist down on the back of the larger monsters head, keeping it distracted and disoriented until Godzilla arrived to dispatch the deadly foe.

==============================

This is my celebratory picture for having 500 watchers!  I wanted to challenge myself by drawing another fun kaiju fight and two of Toho's roster that I've never done before.  So I chose the fan favorite Destroyah versus the plucky robot Jet Jaguar.  I wanted Destroyah to really loom over Jet and look impossible to beat but the first rough draft made them look like they were walking past each other.  Then I got an idea to tilt the page and realized how big and clumsy Destroyah looks and a nimble fighter would use him like a jungle gym. 

It may seem sappy but everyone likes to see an underdog tackling insurmountable odds and helping pave the way to victory.  When i showed this to my friend his comment was "Looks like the rodeo!" and that's what sealed the deal for me. 

I'd also like to point out that Destroyah is a huge headache to draw!  He's like someone's bad OC kaiju.  "Give him a horn!  And extra fangs!  And wings, No wait TWO pairs of wings!  And his tail has a huge claw thing on it!  And he's taller than Godzilla and stronger too!"   

When I started drawing him, he slowly but surely took up the entire page!  Jet was pretty easy once i got his facial shape and details down.

Thank you all for watching my humble art page, from my early ugly MS Paint stuff to my latest works done by hand and with a new scanner.  It's been a crazy experience but a fun one!
