It is with great sadness that I bring the news of Haruo Nakajima's passing. The man who portrayed Godzilla in the 1954 classic as well as numerous sequels all the way up to 1972. He also portrayed several other kaiju such as Rodan, Varan, Moguera, and Gaira (to name a few).
Haruo Nakajima was really the first to elevate suit acting to an art, the passion he had for it during the old classic era of Toho was second to none. He was the first to breathe life into Godzilla and helped to make him the icon he is today.
I've always regarded Mr. Nakajima as the last of the creators of Godzilla. Tomoyuki Tanaka, Ishiro Honda, Eiji Tsuburaya, and Akira Ifukube have all long since passed, and for years Nakajima stood as the last of those men that created Godzilla.
Normally I don't respond to these sort of events but given who it is I felt as though I must. Whether I fully knew it or not, Haruo Nakajima helped to give me the passion for Godzilla I have now, or really, even just the zeal I have for kaiju in general. Regardless of how everything has changed today, Nakajima was a pioneer that helped to start it all.
Rest in peace.

One for the road.
I wouldn't say I'm leaving in the sense I'm deleting this account, but frankly I have no desire to try and share our creations on the new DeviantArt. If I am to be candid I've genuinely wondered if less DeviantArt might be a good thing for me and my development in the long run. I see a lot of trash on this site I'd rather not see in any way and there are plenty of other sites to find quality art.
But...the thought of not regularly participating on DeviantArt is strange to me. I have a whole section of my life I've experienced on here since I was seventeen years old. I had my eighteenth birthday on this site and many since. I fell in love and
Devious Journal Entry
Got tagged by Leviarex (https://www.deviantart.com/leviarex). First time I've been tagged in literally years.
1. What characters do you most hate?
I don't really think there's any character I hate enough for it to be qualified as the hatred most would expect for such a topic. And I prefer not to waste my energy on them anyway.
2. What are your favorite horror movies?
The Thing (1982)
Peeping Tom (1960)
My Bloody Valentine (1981)
Other slashers would include the original Halloween and several of its sequels, the original The Texas Chain Saw Massacre 1 & 2, All the Elm Street movies barring the 2010 remake, Black Christmas (1974), Maniac (1980), The Burning, Friday

April proved to be full of events I did not expect.
For the first time in years I feel the desire to write a full length story. And so far it is shaping up to be some of the best ever produced on my end of things. I did not expect Krystal to come back into my life with this level of magnitude...ever, honestly. But evidently my earthly journey still has surprises for me.
Writing Krystalline in many respects has caused me to grasp a great sense of power within myself. Recognize it's magnitude. I've wanted to see Krystal get the attention she deserves for years and here I am, doing my part to create it. Willing it into existence. Our design, n
Words.
My lack of speech on this site is not from an inactive life. I was hit with the realization last night that February was already two months ago. I exist in my own separate universe on the best days, focusing on my loves, my companions, my friends, passions. The Becoming.
I've been occupied with self work as it were, realizations, acceptances and explorations. It is a shame how few people will ever actually make use of a time like this for such things, in these times I can do so without having to burden myself by pretending to be invested in the nonsensical things so called civilization attempts to program us to be preoccupied with from birth
