Last week we celebrated  Monster Hunter ‘s poster boy and girl with a number of Rathalos and Rathian videos, weapon and armor renders, fan art, cosplay, etc.

If you missed any of it, I encourage you to check out (and “Like”) the  Monster Hunter Facebook page and look for the updates with the #RathaWeek tag. And just to give you a little taste, here are some of my favorite fan art and cosplay pieces.

Starting with the header image… that was actually an old piece by a good friend of mine, Beto Lima , and it’s from the Monster Hunter  (PS2) era!

Oh, it bears reminding that, while I got most of the entries here from the Facebook albums, I also picked some pieces from other albums and places on the internet. All in honor of the royal couple Rathalos and Rathian. =)

Again, you can find all other #RathaWeek fan art pieces on our  Facebook album or, if you prefer, in this  Capcom Unity gallery .

Now onto cosplay! Who doesn’t love a good cosplay set, am I right? Here’s a quick sample:

Rathalos armor by Ae Ri

Rathian armor by Enrico Gabbaneli

Rathian gunner and Rathalos blademaster by Matt Evans and Amy Bennett (classic duo!)

Triple Rathalos! by Neko Stocking

All very neat cosplay pieces… but there’s more! So you should really check out the  Facebook album or this here  Capcom Unity gallery to see tons more Rathalos and Rathian cosplay.

Hey, if we missed your work (i.e., it’s not on any of the albums or galleries), feel free to drop a comment below with a link and we’ll make sure to add it to our channels. =)

Anyways, I think #RathaWeek was quite amazing. We got to see tons of great work and share fond memories of this flying Wyvern couple. Btw, I’m still collecting all the text form fan love (memories, poetry, etc.) so expect a post about that soon.
