Painting Rathalos - Monster Hunter World Board Game

The final and largest monster from the Ancient Forest Core box, the Rathalos is truly the king of the sky. This model required the most time and effort to get to a standard I was satisfied with. I had some hiccups along the way but nothing I couldn't sort out. Next up is the hunters that come with this set

100% agree that you can make your own patterns because trying to follow the exact art is more work than it'll be worth in the long run IMO. My plan is to get the colors close, get the pattern close and put it on the board and enjoy it rather than going crazy over small details.

[@sirriverDM]

True enough! At this point I'm just worried about that sucker staying on his base!

[@Benguitx]

Seriously, a ton of thanks, I had been waiting for a Rathalos video tutorial for a long time. You don't know how much you have helped me, I am very indecisive and it is always difficult for me to decide how to paint some miniatures. I will continue watching your channel very closely

[@sirriverDM]

It's appreciated! Working on a large personal project, but looking forward to returning to work here!

I recently painted this guy for a friend of mine. The model was 99% intact, but the end spike on one of the wings was gone entirely... The wings fit about the same way as yours initially did, but we decided to leave it cause they want to be able to put it back in its box when not playing. This one was a challenge to paint for sure. I'd say an airbrush would do you wonders for that time consuming basecoat (if that's a possibility for you). Your paint job on this guy looks great! Keep up the good work :D

[@sirriverDM]

An airbrush would totally help! Unfortunately my setup doesn't have the space to accommodate one, but I very much appreciate it the feedback!

[@bensontam]

great job! Yes, I would love to see the hunter paint job too.

[@b4retina1977]

Really nice job. Helped me a lot. I really enjoy the cadence of your videos

[@sirriverDM]

I'm glad! I try not to linger on any one part since folks can always pause and go back if they want to see a particular detail again

[@Adam-ew2zy]

Looks great! Completely begginer here. I am using your videos to help me paint my minis! I've done Jagrass so far and it came out good (I think). Would be interested in seeing how you do the hunters for sure, as I don't know how to approach something so small!

[@sirriverDM]

Glad you're finding my videos useful! I'll see if I can't get working on those hunters ASAP. Best of luck painting

Hey dude I'm enjoying these mhw videos!

[@Gorthnag]

Any thoughts of using this model for a Golden Rahalos?

[@sirriverDM]

You're thinking of the Golden Rathian, but the boardgame doesn't have any rules or stats for any Rathian or her variations. The core game does have rules for Azure Rathalos and the Iceborne expansion seemingly has rules for a Silver Rathalos

[@Godzillakuj94]

@@sirriverDM they did announce a gold rathian for wave 2 of the iceborne models i believe 2 days ago it was

[@sirriverDM]

@@Godzillakuj94 thanks for the info! They've announced so many new monsters for the game its hard to keep track!

[@JonasB7]

Looks great, tho could you please use a different background music in the future? cuz man this is annoying!

[@sirriverDM]

Sure thing, I can see what I can dig up. Mostly just me being lazy
