styling design

the image of Altman was designed by the late Japanese artist and sculptor Hiroshi Narita (1929-22). At the same time, he is also the designer of classic monster images such as Baltan Star, Gomorrah, Lei Dewang and Jiedun.

Altman was originally designed as a cosmonaut wearing a suit similar to western armor, but at the request of playwright Tetsuo Kinj? (1938-1976), he was reinvented.

Later, Narita Heng redesigned Altman according to the idea that the opposite of chaos is order. If the monster with complex shapes designed by combining various elements is chaotic, then as the opposite hero, it must be an order with simple and pure beauty.

under this concept, the redesigned Altman head is extremely simplified without any unnecessary decoration. With reference to Maitreya, the mouth shape was designed with a smile. Narita's idea on Altman's mouth is that "the real strong should be with a smile in the battle".
