Description Kind of skipping the Prometheus for now, found myself drawing the Ginko instead. Once again this is from Kong Files [link]

The Ginko

Height: 25 feet
Mass: 8 metric tons

Bio:
After the incident at the NASA station with the Moon-Beast, it was deemed that Kong brought about too much paranoia and suspicion among civilians to be allowed to stay within the United States unharrased. Fortunately a wealthy philanthropist and scientist named Professor Bond was willing to allow Kong to stay within his reserve in Africa under the condition that he would be allowed to study Kong within a more natural environment. With no other reasonable option available, Carl Denheim agreed and set sail to the Dark Continent to give Kong a new home. It was here that the Ginko laid waiting for him.

After Hugo Frankenstein’s perfect man, the Prometheus was destroyed by King Kong himself, Frankenstein found his life in ruins. After being run out of town, Frankenstein sought refuge in Africa were he began to rebuild his life, and his work. Still attempting to achieve a level of perfection within the animal genome, Frankenstein began experimenting with the vast variety of animals that he could obtain. These experiments eventually lead to the birth of the Ginko.

Created from the amalgamation of lion, leopard, elephant, warthog, crocodile, gorilla, and even human DNA; Frankenstein had once again created a beast that was par none the greatest achievement that science had yet to realize. However, unlike the Prometheus who was almost a mindless juggernaut incapable of rational thoughts and processing, the Ginko was capable of this and more. He was capable of learning and saw his creator as his father and eventually Frankenstein too felt a kinship with his creation. They lived their life in solitude, away from mankind and their principles and ethics, where they could live in peace. This however was quickly ended by the arrival of Kong.

Once the news had spread to the ears of Frankenstein, Kong was already well settled in to his new environment and the obsession to once again have the opportunity to capture Kong set in as well. Unfortunately Frankenstein had no means to do so and was unwilling to use his ‘son’ for such a dangerous conquest; the Ginko however had different plans. Wishing to please his father by any means, The Ginko set out to capture Kong. Using a rather crude method of luring Kong away from the reserve, the Ginko sprung upon him and without a moment’s notice the two were engaged in battle.

The two fought savagely, neither one capable of gaining the advantage. It was not until Hugo Frankenstein himself came upon the two that the battle turned from bad to worse. Frankenstein pleaded with his son to stop, that capturing Kong wasn't worth his life and that he should return home. The Ginko seeing the anguish in his father’s eyes attempted to listen to him, Kong however was not so easily moved. Seeing the Ginko as a very potential threat sought to finish him for good. When Frankenstein tried to intervene he was quickly brushed aside with the Ginko quickly coming to his father’s aide. Once again the two combatants were once again at each others throat’s both fighting to protect something they perceived as precious to them.

When Frankenstein came to he approached a horrific sight. The Ginko lay before him dead, his neck snapped and arm dislocated, Hugo Frankenstein wept over the death of his fallen son, who’s only flaw was attempting to gain his father love. Despair would not stay Frankenstein’s hand though, with his son now dead at the hands of a beast he once admired, Frankenstein wished revenge upon it, and he would accomplish such a task with his own hands, and by whatever means it takes to do so.

Abilities/Aspects:
- Intelligence comparable to that of a human being (even capable of speech)
- Extremely dense armor plated skin capable of repelling most conventional weaponry
- Vast agility, speed and strength

Up Next: The Prometheus ...... hopefully

It seems like everyone has their own take on this creature, though very few are even aware of what the initial design was.

I'd be happy to draw your Devastator along with Hellzilla, though it will take a while since I have so many other things to get through first.

Hawanja tried his hand at this earlier and while his may appear sturdier, I think I perfer this one's design overall. Its very vicous and looks suitably chimeric.

I really tried to go in a different direction and give him a bigger role than Hawanja, though I do still love his design.
