30th Monster Hunter 3D-Print: Oltura, 1:100 scale. *Model from @tidypachiderm

They glow under UV light (fluorescent paint)

I made 3 of them, 1 for my own collection and the other 2 go to the people who sculpted it. Do check out their works! 👇

WIP shots. The actual body feels very small, about the size of small CFB figures, but the wingspan is 52cm, easily the widest figure in my collection (only second to my 1 meter Safi).

They are by far the most colorful objects I have painted and I spent 2 whole weeks painting them. Thank god there is no pattern on the wings' back side 🙏. I still won't feel like touching brushes again for some time...

But got to say fluorescent paints are awesome once I have a big @$$ UV flashlight 🔦. Although I found out that there aren't many colors to choose from and I had to go creative to make the pink glow since the fluorescent-pink I bought glows orange instead.

Sᴀɴᴅ ᴀɴᴅ Bʟᴏᴏᴅ.

Sand Barioths are the mounts of seasoned Lamure warriors. One has to prove their fortitude, endurance, and lethality to gain the right to bond with such a highly-respected ally, and once formed, that link will never fracture.

Lamure's vast expanses are highly unforgiving and volatile- as such, a remote tribe housed on the edge of the Sadona Barrens has long known that beasts designed for speed and agility serve far better in navigating their home.

These wyverns are regarded as companions of the utmost honour. To see one daubed in its Rider's paint and hand-crafted ornaments is to witness an ancient partnership that has persisted for countless generations.

↠ Sand Barioth is an extremely underrated subspecies, in my opinion. Most of MonHun's subspecies feel a little too much like reskins or are too similar to their predecessors- Green Nargacuga, Pink Rathian & Aurora Somnacanth come to mind, in particular. Sand Barioth breaks the species mold, placing the monster in the antithesis of its domain- it's a really fun, flashy, and bold concept.

In terms of inspiration here, I based both lore and visuals on the ethnic Karo people of Ethiopia. Their daily practise of body-painting is really beautiful, and so strikingly captures the human experiences of creativity and self-expression.

I like how this turned out. I'm proud of it.
