The Best Stan Winston creation?

[dark_b]

T-800 for me. I love the design, one of film's most iconic villains.

did oyu choose the t_800 because you love how Stan Winston build the machine or because of the designe? because the designe is from Cameron.

I chose the T-Rex but I wish his Godzilla creation was added on there, even though it wasn't used.

T-800 for me. I love the design, one of film's most iconic villains.

Stan always seemed to have a "less is more" philosophy when it came to the creatures he created, and the T-800 is the best example of that. It's literally just a robotic skeleton, but it's done brilliantly, and allowed the performances and the story to drive the audience's interest in the story.

Is that real?

 

[Aesop Rocks]

Yep. The original design for the Godzilla in the Americanized Godzilla film.

i like the desigen from the 98 movie better. this looks like a pregnant monster.

 

[SuperFerret]

Oh. Wow. I wonder what the thought process was there. Probably "let's not use this awesome-looking, but also faithful to the original, design and use a giant iguana".

So, let me get this straight.

You like the A-Sexual Iguana?

... and dark_b as well, apparently.

Like I said, Winston seemed to operate with a "less is more" approach, and it's honestly the best way to go about this sort of thing. The Godzilla issue proves that.

 

[Aesop Rocks]

I agree. Now that I think of it "Zilla" was really busy for me. This is a very simplistic yet VERY faithful Godzilla re-design.

****. The SCRIPT for Godzilla '98 is brilliant itself.

The design, but I assume Winston worked on the effects from the original Terminator where the T-800 was limping after Connor & Reese. That's one of my all-time favorite movie scenes & I still think the effects look good.

Should put Pumpkinhead and his Gill Man from Monster Squad on here too.

The T-800 could have been done really lazy and just have been a simple skeleton colored silver. I like how the body is designed. I got an 18 inch Endoskeleton and it's beautiful.

 

[Nivek]

The Gill man that Stan made for Monster Squad. if they make a Modern practical suit or go CG Gill man for the Remake, this is the bar.

 

[webhead731]

Too bad it was only there for like 10 seconds.

 

[Agent Orange]

Wow, tough call. It's a toss up between the T-800 and the Queen Alien.

 

[Nivek]

Too bad it was only there for like 10 seconds.

Still, It always stands out in my brain because it's an awesome suit.

Same for Steve Johnsons Bad Moon werewolf suit.

Damn, the guy was a mastermind. Why'd he have to leave so soon?

His creations gave me nightmares when i was a kid and i loved them, the guy was an artist.
I found a book at the library about his work shop and it was just amazing, he is def on my heroes list.
