If you can find a higher resolution version. That won't blow up all that well.

... and with all the gradients, that would be difficult to vectorize.

I like the idea :cheers:
As far as using this as side art, you would have to vectorize it. If you want it to come out really good, I recommend finding a print of this and having it scanned at a very high resolution. That background, as HarumaN posted, is going to be difficult to vectorize along with the Godzilla. You will need to separate the image into 2 parts in photoshop and vector your background and Godzilla separately.

Here is a very rough pass in illustrator.

I was going to suggest the Japanese spelling on Gojira. Good work.
