Introducing the Great Gulhounga! A coastal species of amphibious bird wyverns that dwell within the Descending Forest.
#MonsterHunter #MonsterHunterWilds

Gulhounga are a species of coastal bird wyvern native to the Descending Forest. They can be identified by their bright coloring on their tails, their uniquely raised spines, and their elongated skulls, similar to those of some species of Leviathan.
Gulhounga live in large packs consisting of up to 100 individuals at times. Gulhounga males are typically the smaller individuals, around the size of a Jaggi, then the full grown females of the pack are slightly larger than a Great Jaggi, and certainly heavier due to their mainly aquatic lifestyle. The females are typically the leaders of the pack as well, with the smaller males picking at each other in competition for courtship. While hunting within the kelp forest, they typically separate into smaller groups of around 5 males and 2-3 females.
Great Gulhounga have been measured to be able to open their jaws up to 90 degrees, useful for latching onto prey larger than themselves, or for swallowing smaller prey whole.

Theorized to be a surviving species of Carcharodontosaur naturally mutated by a life alongside Deusaurus Serizawa (Gojira) specimens. It is one of the only species naturally mutated by Godzilla, and one of their closest ally.

Going to try and start posting everything again, got caught up in holiday and school craziness.

Veivadeus, The Black Tide 🌊🐋
#MonsterHunter #MonsterHunterWilds

Veivadeus
The Black Tide
Classification: Black Dragon
Habitat: The Northern Sea
Element/Ailment: Water

The Roar of a Veivadeus is said to be powerful enough to push away the sea around it. If a hunter were close enough it would certainly send them flying, if not completely deafen them.
Veivadeus is rarely reported. This is due to multiple factors; the constant category five hurricane that seems to flow from them, and their high aggression towards ships.
It is rumored that Veivadeus are rivals to the legendary Fatalis. It is said that they are an equal match, if not Veivadeus coming out on dop. Whats a bit of fire going to do to a Tsunami? Perhaps this is the reason Fatalis is rumored to stay sheltered in Castle Schrade.
Veivadeus are rumored to have one of, if not the most powerful bit force in the monster kingdom. Accounts say that it is capable of crushing an Akantor or Ukanlos' aarmor to dust.

Raigopagos, The Lightning Giant ⚡🦕⚡

#MonsterHunter #MHart #art

Raigopagos
The Lightning Giant
Classification: Titan Wyvern
Habitat: All Zones
Element/Ailment: Lightning and Dragon

The spines all over Raigopagos' body contain a natural conducting metal. Lightning will strike the beast and charge it with electricity.

Organs in the body transform electrical charge into dragon energy when enraged.

Because of their size, Raigopagos are an easily seen target, and attract the highly aggressive Deviljho. They are considered natural rivals, however most Deviljho's end up with their rib cage crushed...

Scam PSA:

Heads up folks, there are now bots on here who will make clone accounts and dm you asking for donations if you offer support to real people. New platform means you are less likely to have dm history with someone so even if you think you know them, just be extra observant.

Me leaving a comment on a friend's post offering to help support them financially.

THIS.

I’ll add what I’ve said from the beginning — “good enough” is the true enemy. I’m not just saying it’s the enemy for today’s working creators. It’s the enemy for human civilization and progress.

It’s up to us. Fight like everything depends on it. Every day. NO compromises.

NO to AI.

We must must must resist the idea that generative AI is inevitable. It is not inevitable. People don't really like it. It doesn't do its job well. It removes the humanity from one of the most human-forward things. Not to mention it is an environmental nightmare. Keep banging the drum. Say no to AI.

Another reason not to use generative AI in video games: getting artists to be unabashed fans of your project is like the best free social media marketing you could ever ask for and that enthusiasm just evaporates when your shits covered in midjourney renders

Svammedyr create a unique chemical in their fur that can easily ignite, but once on fire, will burn a black and white flame that can freeze as it burns.
