Eat Yaky stuff, not Yucky
Next addition for my Season 5 Episode Art!
Episode 11 - Party Pooped
For more info on my MLP:FIM Season 5 Episode Art Streams
Pretty great episode haha. That world building, though!!!
The size of those Yaks, their location, their behaviour. So much new stuff.
Makes me feel better about making a pretty big bull the other day haha, seeing how large these were in comparison to Celestia.
It’s also just fun seeing more species, especially with fun behaviour like they had haha.
Today didn’t go as smooth, but I guess I just had to make a Yak anyway. Or that Yeti, feline, ape, thing… Maybe some other day. New anatomy to get used to, although I’m not sure how much I’ll actually make them.
Also, WAAAAR RAWR. Not the first time the word has been used, but the first time in such a way hah. Makes me all the more curious to all the wars in Equestria or beyond from past or perhaps future ones. Also just adds to ideas for my First Contact War.
I expected a lot of diplomatic stuff being thrown on Twilight’s plate (and friends) since season 4, and this episode did exactly that.
Anyhow, fun stuff. Bit basic portrait thingy. Initially planned a landscape with all three yaks in clear view and stuff in the background… but that was a bit much for now.
Hope y’all still enjoy!
The PSDs and Highres will be available through my Patreon later on.
PS: Darn snow blindness, why did I put them there.
Approx time: 10 hours
Time Lapse: into the queue of like 12+ others

Looks like just any generic western looking crown.
The design doesn’t look like Chinese crowns. It looks like Tibetan crowns.
Oh, I agree. I just entered this discussion to talk about -stans.
i hear you … but i kinda suspect that constructing veiled racist allusions is rather low on the list of priorities for the mlp writers.
this reminds me of the american-moms-want-to-kill-derpy incident.
So it should be fine, “Yak country” isn’t any more insulting than “Ponyville”
The region of China sometimes called Eastern/Chinese Turkestan or Uyghurstan has some yaks, so that’s an appropriate -stan.
I’m probably thinking about this more than whoever came up with the name “Yakyakistan” did, but obsessive overanalyzing is what fandoms excel at!
I’ve seen one person think Tajikistan was the intended reference.
There are tons of Somethingistan countries around.
Yaks are native in none of them. However, the design of the Yak guard’s helmets are similiar to some ancient chinese helmets, which is one of the countries with a dwindling yak population.
And I doubt the chinese give a shit.
I doubt they intended to reference Pakistan. One of the Turkic -stans in Central Asia seems much more likely.
would mlp show in pakistan?
