Description Say hello to Zinogre, one of the most emblematic monsters of the amazing Monster HunterΒ games!

It's like a mix between a reptilian-dragon and a wolf, it's sooo classy. And it makes thunder.
Those glowing globes around it are insects called fulgurbugs, which give Zinogre its thunder abilities

What I did here was meant to be a test to see how to deal with some sort of a comic-style - and I discovered was a bad choice to work with (or a good one, depends on the pov) because its design is soooo complicated, it takes hours to draw, even with this simple-sketchy style. Maybe I should simplify it more, doing even more cell shading? I should try a few techniques out if I have enough time.

Hope you'll like!

Zinogre belongs to Capcom and the Monster Hunter gameΒ series.

This is very well done! Β I love how Zinogre can pull off scary and adorable at the same time. XD Β I love the pose here and the attention to detail. Β The coloring is very smooth as well.Β

You know, honestly, I would play Monster Hunter, IF I could KEEP the monsters I capture and be able to raise them and train with them. Could you imagine running into battle riding one of these beauties?

Speaking of beauty, this picture is fabulous. He/She looks so regal and powerful.

i think zonogre has only 1 side claw on the front legs, been some time since i hunted it, so just letting you know to check it out, otherwise great art

All the pictures show it with two (vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/m… ), and I have an official figure builder where it has two of them, so... xD
Thanks anyway

No. I have played some monster hunter 3 but i haven't encountered this creature yet. Still looks awesome

Amayensis In reply to teipot1 [2015-11-12 05:58:44 +0000 UTC]

Oh! I think it exists in this game at some rank
I've encountered it in MH4U, I love it

It looks pretty good (though granted I have no idea what I'm looking at so everything is just based on what I'm seeing XD). So what happens if the fulgurbugs leave or are sprayed with a good dose of Mortein (possibly with a lighter held in front of it)? Definitely try a few different things if you have time and inclination though aside from simplifying it down to ridiculous (which can still look good dependingon how you do it) I think with the amount of scales and spikes and details on it, it's going to take you ages no matter what style you draw it in

Amayensis In reply to Ryivhnn [2015-11-11 10:43:38 +0000 UTC]

Ha, that's a good question! XD
I guess it would find other fulgrubugs elsewhere, but before that it will probably be very pissed off. XD

Yep, I think I'll retry but with a less complicated shading-style. I already did my best at simplifying the lineart as much as possible. (Except for the fur areas)

Thank you for the comment!

LoL XD Good luck with the less complicated shading style, I'm sure it will turn out as good as this one

I remember importing the HD version back when it came out.

I couldn't read a thing, but it was so worth it just to fight Zinny and Amatsu. P3rd may have been easy, but dammit if it didn't have the same homey feel as MHFU did.

Amayensis In reply to ShrubbyNerb [2015-11-10 22:02:27 +0000 UTC]

I've never played to P3rd, I've only played to MHFU and MH4U, and a tiny bit of 3U; I don't know much about the others

ShrubbyNerb In reply to Amayensis [2015-11-10 22:04:41 +0000 UTC]

Oh xD

Well, IMO, P3rd was the best 3rd gen game because it was gen 3 and gen 2 combined without the water mechanics :U
(you probably did like them but ugh my fav weapons were hell underwater)

And it introduced some kickass music. (misty peaks battle, yukumo village, amatsu's themes, and of course, Zinogre!)

Actually the first console controler I ever held in my hands was not so long ago and it was with MH3U at my bf's. How can I explain that it was already hard to control the camera, and that therefore underwater fights were a nightmare to me at that time?

However, now that I have played MH4U on one of those New 3DS with that awesome C-stick, I control camera a lot better and maybe should retry underwater battles with that console. One day. (even if, after 2 months of MH4U, MH3U looks really long and slow to me)

I'm a big fan of Zinogre's theme, among with Chameleos', Teostra/Luna's, Tigrex's, Kushala's, and probably a few others (oh and Cathar's in 4U! so relaxing to hear).

It got better in MH3U, yeah. I have an old model XL with the CPP attatchment (the console's slower, but it feels better in the hands and has a full size right circle pad) and it was a lot easier to control. I played Tri with the Wiimote, it was horrible, but I never had many games for the wii to justify buying the pro controller so I lived with it. lol

MH3U can be pretty slow just because monsters seem to have a lot more HP than other portable games. 3U has so many HP sponges, Jhen, Not-Fatalis, Alatreon, Stygian Zinogre... I'm glad Styg got a rebalance for 4U because he was just awful in 3U.

I think my favourite MH theme has to be Shen Gaoren's and White Fatty's.
I also like the original Dondruma theme www.youtube.com/watch?v=N5wgjo… it has a more laid back feel compared to the "Dundorma" remake in MH4u. <3
