"Godzilla Drawing"

My process was making Godzilla attacking a city.

Using Photoshop to draw and color.

I erased the problem and redid the problem by tracing very carefully.

Take your time tracing and coloring.

The part of Godzilla breathing his atomic breath.

I would change the buildings and make them a different color.
