League of Monsterphiles
"The hunter rides into village on their newfound Seikret companion, a hefty tome slung over their shoulder. The tome looks aged, and even stained. On its cover "League of Monsterphiles" etched into the cover with the delicate work of a knife. Each page a chronicle of the sights and sounds of their intimate research across the new and old world alike."
What is League of Monsterphiles?

About Us
We started as a group of artists wanting to create more monster hunter art depicting the series' creatures in more accurate on-model depictions. There was not a whole lot of adult art fitting this bill, so what if a bunch of artists got together to fix that? Thus the group was created!
Every year we gather to create a big tribute pack to these designs we all know and love!
