Studio Woodart Vietnam takes blocks of wood and transforms them into incredible sculptures. Founder Duy Tran has used his training in traditional carvings and merged it with interest in pop culture and anime. One of the latest masterpieces to emerge from the studio is an impressive rendering of Godzilla.

Woodart Vietnam shared videos of two different versions of the reptilian beast. In the first, the studio starts out with a large cube of mahogany wood that has a drawing of Godzilla's silhouette. Artisans use a chainsaw to carve around the drawing until a rough shape of the monster emerges. From there, other tools are used to refine the figure, including a handheld rotary carving tool. The finished piece is unveiled after adding intricate details—one that took 25 days to make. This length of time is completely understandable when you see the level of detail added to Godzilla, like the scales and pointy teeth.

Like the first rendition, this one also begins as a large block of mahogany wood that is carefully refined with a chainsaw. The difference with this piece is that after the artisan has finished rendering the textured back of Godzilla, a deep crevice in the middle of the spine was added with a strips of light inside. As the video ends, the studio demonstrates the effects of these glowing blue and green lights, which illuminate the details of Godzilla's spikes and tail.
