Original monster created for Godzilla: Trading Battle

Some ideas for redesigning Shiigan/Seagan

Megalon is meant to slightly evoke a samurai, so Shiigan or Seagan I feel could do with slight western knight inspiration. A head that looks like one of the weirder helmets.

During this time we can give more a crustacean feel by making the head also look like that of this crab larvae.

As for another thing, I feel can take the Gigan-saw inspired “femur”  of the Kamanga from SP could help bring the design together. Maybe make them act like vibrating saws.

Yeah, we’re gonna lean into the superficial similarities with Gigan. 

As for powers one requirement: something that is actually USEFUL against Hedorah, who they  are written in some of the few information on as being Seagan’s “white whale” so to speak.

Now that there's a new Godzilla anime soon to come out, and it seems Toho's entire monster cast is returning, as well as the infinite possibilities they can do, Toho has no excuse but to introduce these lovely cast of creatures in Singular Point

Been thinking for a long time of adding to Seatopia’s pantheon

Sure Megalon is their national god, but what other kaiju could you add to it?

Salunga might be good as a rival monster who seeks to surplant Megalon’s position as primary while Megalon is oblivious. Might I suggest a “royal” purple colorscheme?

[we’ll see how things develop in SP.  Feels like this monster has more surprises coming.]

Barakidon from Zonefighter also feels fitting in design as another rival for the “destroyer”. Like Seatopia having a terrifying mutant chicken seems SOO fitting.  It was even made from a combination of biological mad science and geothermal energy. Just look at more ancient chicken breeds rather than modern ones for redesign. 

Seagan 

(from the trading card game simulator videogame on the PS1.) 

C’mon! It has “Sea” (or “shii” with Japanese pronounciation” in its name, is a guardian of the ocean, and looks vaguely like Gigan! Perfect as the shoulder angel to Megalon while Gigan is the shoulder devil. Just give it a slightly more aquatic look (like a head more like a crab larvae) and we gold! Maybe a bit of a western Knight look to the exoskeleton to complement Gigan’s samurai inspiration?
