#BENARES

[cloud-ya]

benares in monster hunter style, with a twist of shagaru-like tiny eyes because I don't know how monhun would otherwise handle her eyes-on-horns/eyeless design and afaik they never did a wyvern/dragon with actual multiple eyes xd

Hoyoverse are just too good when it comes to their monsters and creatures designs. Here's a doodle of one such girl, Benares from HI3rd. She's certanly one of my most favourite dragon characters out there.

Honkaitober Prompt #2 - Memorial Arena

I’ve never actually gotten to fight SSS Benares, on the account of my subpar skills and allergy to rolling on the weapon and stigmata banners. Its so hard to find references of her. What, do I have to rip her model myself? (Please don’t sue me Mihoyo)

For my sanity I’m going to take it slow and consider the days as suggestions.
