I love Rakna Kadakis design so imagine my disappointment when I unlocked her armor and it was giving kitschy, discount Vaal Hazak.

Design rant under the cut:

Rakna Kadakis Monster Design is clearly based on traditional Japanese wedding dress. So I was really disappointed by her lackluster armor design.

It has a very cheap and kitschy feel to it, which isnt helped by the tacked on roses and rubbery looking spider silk.

Rakna Kadakis Armor runs into a similar problem as some other Monster Hunter armors, I find. Where the armor isnt borrowing enough visually from the Monster its supposedly made of (often times its the color scheme that suffers) and in this case its both.

I'm guessing they went with a western bridal design since Mizutsunes Armor is already based on the Shiromuku but i feel like A: that theres enough visual differences between the Monsters and B: I have enough trust left in the designers that they probably couldve made it feel unique from Mizu.

Raknas Armor design is a missed oppurtunity in my book because the designers didnt cash in on either angle that couldve been taken with this design.

Angle 1: as we've already discussed, is the Shiromuku. It wouldve fit like a glove since Rakna Kadakis Hood already looks like a Wataboshi and her two front legs give off the same feel as long kimono sleeves.

(I feel the need to note that I am not japanese, so my interpretation might still be flawed despite my utmost efforts to get the Shiromuku right. I referenced both the Mizutsune Armor and Chihirohowe's guide about Ofurisode as best as I could)

Angle 2: Especially with a spider design to me, always screams, Bustle Gowns! While not explicitly bridal related, it still wouldve worked better to capture the overall feel of a spiders silhouette. Additionally, it's not like people didnt get married during the Bustle gown Era. I will admit that the Bonnet I used probably(?) wasnt in fashion anymore during the 1870 but not using a Bonnet as an alternate take for Rakna Kadakis Hood is a bigger missed opportunity me thinks. I tried to make both versions as such that the spidersilk hides the hard chitin that the entire body is covered in. So that the wearer looks softer and appears more harmless.

I'm kissing you with tongue if you're reading this, thanks for listening to my thoughts <3

commission for @miragegarbage on Twitter of our MH hunters arm wrestling... i always lose :[

[elstreem]

I am stupidly excited to see Moga Sweetheart's outfit in Sunbreak! Tri is my first MH game and so Moga Sweetheart is also my favorite Guild Gal - I read somewhere her name is apparently Aisha? I actually did set this as my layered armor back in GU, it's just so cute.

I mostly made it with no thought for skills and stats lol, it's not as good as the full Golm armor I already made, but man, the maxed out luck skill is no joke.

Look at them mantles drop like rain, baby.

The Rathian mantle drop is so funny because I didn't even hunt Rathian, the target was Mizutsune and I just used Rathian as free damage while Wyvern riding...and got a mantle. When I near decimated the MR Rathian population a while back trying to get a mantle and had to give up lol.

Oh, and it matches well with the Cohoot Spelunker Crew outfit too.
