The Loch Ness Monster

New Illustration by Chris Trefz of The Loch Ness Monster: The Titanic Underwater Terror That Almost Made it to The Silver Screen.  

Nessie - Unmade Loch Ness Monster movie

Here's a commission I received to illustrate Nessie attacking a Ferry. This is one of many scenes from an unmade movie planned in the '70s, which would have seen a collaboration between Godzilla's own Toho studios, and England's Hammer Films. 

The plot would have been rather tragic, Nessie was originally a peaceful creature, but when exposed to some nuclear waste, grows larger and more vicious, ultimately needing to be destroyed. The movie had some exciting scenes planned, including this one, where the creature leaves the Loch and proceeds to overturn the Woolwich Ferry as it rampages through the Thames River in England.

Merry Shin Godzilla Christmas 🎄

New Artwork! Concluding 2023 with another entry into my "Walking in a Winter Horror Land" series. This time it's a scene of Shin Godzilla merrily stomping his way across a snowy forest, dressed to celebrate the season. Hopefully, the people inside that cabin heard the atomic wassailer coming and decided it was lovely weather for a sleigh ride together... to somewhere else. I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas, and wishing you all a Happy New Year!
