Check out Godzilla 2014concept art!

Some scans from the book Godzilla: The Art of Destruction by Mark Cotta Vaz have been shared online. It's pretty cool stuff although there's nothing showing which artist created each illustration. That doesn't bode well for the book.

Janjira nuclear power plant


"The Janjira nuclear power plant control room was a daunting design challenge—everything from switches and gauges to signage and paperwork had to be created and accurately reflect a period Japanese nuclear facility. This piece of concept art set the look of the facility."

Q Zone



"Concept art depicting the Q-Zone. 'The great thing about haze and fog is that you can create beautiful, dark foreground silhouettes,' says [director Gareth] Edwards. 'And it really gives a sense of scale and scope.'"

Submarine Drop


"Concept art imagines the surreal effect of the giant monsters, such as this nuclear submarine dropped in the mountains. 'I love this shot,' says Edwards. 'We struggled with trying to find a position for the submarine that didn't feel too silly, but you could still read it from a distance. This is a shot that's never in the film, they don't actually approach it from the boat, but again, things get drawn just to give it flavor.'"

MUTO Jungle Hunt







"A stunning piece of concept art [top] showing the submarine's propeller suspended from the forest canopy, formed the basis for the final film frame [bottom]. ABOVE The "monster hunters" on the track of the MUTO in the jungle sequence. BELOW Storyboards map out the suspenseful submarine sequence."
