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

All these can be bought as stickers (or magnets) on my redbubble!

Burning Huntress 2.0

Decided to redraw my Hornet crossed with Rakna Kadaki. This time with Pyre Rakna from the Sunbreak DLC.
Click for better quality, and reblogs are better than likes (though both are nice UwU)
.
.
[image description: two drawings of Hornet crossed with Rakna Kadaki from Monster Hunter Rise.
The drawing on the left is Hornet crossed with normal Rakna Kadaki. She's draped in webs to make it look like she's wearing a veil and the webs draped on her legs drag behind her on The ground. Her shell/fur is various shades of purple, her hands and bottom of her legs the darkest pure before it fades to a lighter purple. She's wielding her needle in one hand.
The drawing on the right is Hornet crossed with Pyre Rakna Kadaki from Sunbreak. She's crouched down on all fours, though one arm is held out to the side with her needle handle braced against most of the length of her arm. The back of her neck and the bottom of her corset are draped in dark gray webs that fade to red.
Her arms and the bottoms of her legs fade from yellow to red do a dark gray before fading to the plate gray, almost white that makes up the rest of her body. She also has light pinkish stripes on her arms and legs. Her mouth is open in a snarl of sorts.
In both drawings she has large curved spikes that branch out by her hips and more down towards the bottom of her legs. End ID]

I meant to make a video not long after the release of Monster Hunter Rise talking about my favorites of the new monsters. However part of the purpose of this blog is that life has not permitted me to be creative and as they say, writers are just failed artists. We're now post Sunbreak and I still want to talk about these guys so I'm gonna start with what I think is my favorite, Rakna-Kadaki.
Narwa is high on my list because she forces the player to use the games primary mechanic, being the wirebug. I love Rakna for the opposite reason. She uses the players mechanic. She moves around the arena at surprisingly high speed by wire dashing, and both her and Pyre sort of have silkbind moves in a way. Pyre has a more fascinating and terrifying move list but I don't think I like her more or less than Rakna really.
On top of the conceptual coolness of the monster it falls into another gameply groove that I appreciate. The most enjoyable monsters to fight in my opinion are the fat squishy ones with lots of breakable parts. I get excited every time Royal Ludroth shows up because it just sits there and takes beatings, and it's satisfying to break its crown and sever its tail. Rakna's constant web breaks and replacements keep the fight fun, and breaking the claws means you did a good job.
Lastly I'm a Ghost in the Shell fan and I have to assume that the person who made this monster is too because that's a Tachikoma if I've ever seen one. The way it slides around while fighting makes it really apparent. The other incredibly obvious inspiration is the Jorogumo. When a golden orb weaver reaches 100 years of age it gains the ability to shape shift into a beautiful woman to lure in young men, who it then attacks with its fire breathing offspring. Love that for her.

I don't know how Sunbreak will change things, but Rakna-Kadaki is currently my hands down favorite fight in Rise.
