Rathian, the Queen of the Land. This flying Wyvern is found all across the world, thriving in many habitats due to her highly adaptive and fierce nature. She is a formidable opponent for any Hunter, only slightly less notorious than her male counterpart, Rathalos. The Queen is feared due to her highly accurate fire breath, devastatingly strong kicks and the potent poison she stores in the spines on the tip of her tail. Trying to hunt her without remembering to pack Antidotes or Herbal Medicine will have one succumbing to her poison and getting carted back to camp in short order. When she forms a mated pair with a Rathalos, the two will hunt, raise young, and fight together, and can even be seen mourning if their mate is to fall in battle. It raises questions about the emotional capacity of monsters; are they mere beasts, or do they feel something akin to what we might call love? Well, no time to think about that when you're busy getting roasted, poisoned, and eviscerated at the same time. Let's leave the philosophy to the Research Team.

I decided to do a classic Wyvern this time, Rathian has been in every Monster Hunter game since the beginning! Omg, so many scales and spines.
MHGU is out on Switch now! if I wasn't so busy with school I'd totally get it. Maybe if I had friends to go hunting with me...

Odogaron, the apex predator that inhabits the Rotten Vale. Although relatively small in stature compared to other apex monsters, it makes up for its size with its incredible agility, sheer ferocity and bloodlust. It is primarily a scavenger, although it won't pass up an opportunity to hunt for fresher prey. Its hairless, sinewy body is well adapted for eating and digesting rancid and decaying meat. If the Rotten Vale is where monsters and Elder Dragons go to die and be reborn, then Odogaron plays a vital part in that ecosystem. Its most distinctive feature are its terrifying claws, capable of tearing flesh from bone as though it were made of paper. Its massive, fanged jaws are capable of opening almost to 180 degrees, giving it the ability to latch onto prey much larger than itself -- or to snap up a Hunter in one bite. When food is scarce in the Rotten Vale, it has been known to venture up into the Coral Highlands. Those wishing to hunt this beast will need incredibly quick reflexes, as well as abundant bandages on hand, as the bleeding from its claws will not stop unless treated immediately.

in summary: he's a toothy boi

I'm probably gonna do more of these so any suggestions for which monster I should do next, just hit me up.

Sooooo I'm kinda obsessed with MHW. And it's out on PC now, so why not commemorate that with a pixel art of my favorite monster?

Legiana, the apex predator of the Coral Highlands. It uses its flexible wings to ride updrafts and soar high above the canyon in search of prey. A unique and magnificent species of Wyvern, it uses the organs on its chest to produce freezing ice crystals in order to immobilize prey or defend itself from threats. Any Hunter caught in its icy blast will find their bodies turn sluggish and unresponsive, allowing the Legiana to swoop in with its fearsome claws to deliver the fatal blow. It takes a skilled Hunter to fell this beast, which you're going to want to do over and over again if you want that sweet, sweet loot and Wyvern Gems

Referenced mainly from this awesome thing.

...Tempted to do more of these, this was challenging but really really fun
Any suggestions for what monster I should hunt pixel next?
