Jeez, it's been so long I can't remember. Here's the new Mick Garris podcast interviewing Dougherty:
https://www.podcastone.com/episode/Mike ... io-ArgentoHarris asks Dougherty (who's an artist himself) whether he did design work for Godzilla himself, and Dougherty says that he surrounded himself with talented designers who brought ideas better than his own to the four kaiju, but there are
additional creatures other than the main four and Dougherty is likely to be more hands-on in the design of those.
Was first clued into this via the Astounding Beyond Belief tumblr:

Oooh, listening to this and here's an awesome tidbit: Dougherty doesn't want to make a movie that'll look dated in terms of style, and told all his designers to look at things from the '50s to today that are evergreen to create a timeless look.
