Great one Wild Yak concept

[faint dragon]

Who else if not me will come up with a great one wild yak Idea, and now I would like to share the Idea with you guys.

Characteristics:

Weight: 1250-1400kg
2755-3086lbs

Trophy Score: 300-360

Fabled fur Variations:
1.Silver
2.White
3.Skull
4.Eclipse
5.Mocha

Fabled horns Variations:
1.Diablo
2.Typical
3.Longbow
4.Low-set

Note: All of the fur and horn ideas are all real life cases of existing animals, that's what I aimed for, I want the great ones to be unique and beautiful real life sightings, and not some ridiculous ideas.

Ill start first with Furs:

Fabled White

Fabled White is a popular White yaks that are known around the Tibet, they are not really Albinos, but they are rare and unique white yaks, they have very fluffy and chunky fur that looks like a cloud, so that would be very nice and beautiful looking animal(first picture)

Fabled Eclipse

Fabled Eclipse would have it fur go white on the top and black on the bottom, resembling an Eclipse, i've found something similar to that but instead of it being slightly white on top like on the picture(second one), it will have more space on top being white.

Fabled Silver

Fabled Silver is more simple and casual looking animal, it will have its fur light gray which would look very unique compared to regular yak furs in the game, which would be standing out in their big herds(picture 3).

Fabled Mocha

Fabled Mocha would be a calming and soft looking fur, nothing crazy nothing too out of pocket, it will be just a mocha fur yak with some beige/white areas around the fur(picture 4), sorta like mission mocha moose.

Fabled Skull

Fabled Skull will resemble in a way piebald or something like a spotted animal, but it will have its head be white and have dark spots in area of eyes and closer to the front of the mouth, and it will have some spots away from the head and more closer to the end of the body(picture 5)

I Will drop the horns in the comments because im running out of space

Here are the horn Ideas for the Great One Yak

1. Diablo - would be in sorta like devil-ish style but much bigger in size
2. Typical - It will be horns like big lvl 9 yaks have but much bigger and wider
3. Low-set - It will be a horns that would be turned facing front-bottom maybe with the tips curling towards the front
   4.Longbow - It will be veeeeery wide and flat spread horns with a slight twist like you see on the picture

let me know what yall think

[blissful lake]

Uhm yes please

🔥

[shadow marlin]

Yes

[junior mesa]

I loved your idea so I decided to sketch it out!

[junior mesa]

I'm hoping the sketch is accurate enough to your idea! Loving the thought of a great one yak

I realized I forgot to fix up the fabled skull's horn 😅

[dusk palm]

I feel like the upside down one could be called something like pincer, since it looks a lot like a bugs pincers

[shadow marlin]

Do a skull like one using the mocha colors, kinda like the gold fur already in game

[junior mesa]

I could try that out, but I've spent six hours today just doing those as accurately as I could to the original poster's idea
I don't have a stylus so my hand hurts lol

[shadow marlin]

Oh dang, well no need to today, take a break

[junior mesa]

Gonna keep drawing for a suggestion of my own, new map n new animals
Lots of sketching for later

[half tree]

Better than a fox and pheasant.

[faint dragon]

Oh my days I absolutely Love it!

[junior mesa]

Aaah thank you! I was hoping you would

[faint dragon]

Im absolutely opened to any name ideas, there is plenty of people who are more creative with the names

[faint dragon]

I really love how mocha and skull came out

[junior mesa]

Those were my favorites of the bunch, might redo silver but honestly Id LOVE that ingame
A light gentle gray is a great coat

[faint dragon]

And eclipse with the low-set(or pincer) looks like an absolutely perfect combo

[junior mesa]

I thought it looked very nice together

[faint dragon]

It indeed does, friend of mine liked the silver with long twist a lot

[junior mesa]

I picked more of a rich black for Eclipse as the actual eclipse has this ring of fire
Thought it was clever

[faint dragon]

I really love it, its nice to see other people who like that idea, lmk if you think of better names or touches to the ideas, i was thinking silver could be Dust instead, but silver kinda sounds more nicer and more “fabulous”

[junior mesa]

I liked the names! I may actually draw them later on, as what I gave ya was really just a semi rushed sketch
Maybe draw a herd with a few of the g1 concepts in it

[faint dragon]

Do as you wish!your “sketches” look absolutely amazing, Im an artist in a way of myself but im terrible on digital, so its nice to see my ideas be implemented on digital like that

[junior mesa]

Just gotta get used to digital, However if you do try to do so go back and forth between traditional and digital.. I keep attempting to zoom in on paper 😭
I had fun bringing them to life (The horns weren't that fun as I was struggling to keep it somewhat symmetrical and failing horrendously)

[karmic sand]

You did great fr how did you learn?

[faint dragon]

well you did manage to do it hahahah

[junior mesa]

Drawing a lot traditionally and spending three or four years trying and failing with digital, if you can find your style it shouldn't take near as long. My drawing process is just shapes, refined shapes and jagged lines until I get a good enough sketch to do rough lineart on
Quick example for you right here, references save lives

I do think a light gold g1 would also look nice, with some speckling too

[dusk palm]

I've spent like, 6 years in the same art class and I still suck, idk how yall do it so well

Like
That warthog looks like he'll be singing Hakuna Matata with a meerkat. It's that good

[faint dragon]

well maybe something like an Irish yak!

[junior mesa]

EXACTLY! That rich colour would definitely be something I want in my lodge, combined with the Pincer or Longbow horns

[karmic sand]

Yea

[karmic sand]

I gotta get better at using guides I never do tbh not the best idea ofc

[junior mesa]

Remember everything is a shape, use it to your advantage if it isn't cubey it's not effective lol

[karmic sand]

lol thanks

[faint dragon]

That could be another fur idea!why not!I think amber would be a nice name to it

either of these 2

also friend of mine thought about a red colored yak but only thing i could’ve found is this picture so im not sure

But if it would be a decent idea I would name it Rodo

[dark tapir]

nah

[faint dragon]

fair enough

[quaint remnant]

this is so tuff

[faint dragon]

thanks!big thanks and shot-out to @junior mesa tho for making those drawings to picture them easily

[dark tapir]

im with it actually

[faint dragon]

you better to

[soft hornet]

@limber cosmos

[cinder sapphire]

this is actually a good idea I really love this

[faint dragon]

‘Preciate it mate

[paper niche]

bump

[paper niche]

How do you make these?

[junior mesa]

I drew it myself on an app called ibispaint x

[paper niche]

So do you use templates or is this drawn from scratch?

[junior mesa]

Scratch

[paper niche]

Nice!

[faint dragon]

[blissful roost]

You know i would love for the yaks to have those saddles on, they just bring so much colour to it, a white one like is sure beautiful but with the red saddle like that just makes it uniqe like a great one

[faint dragon]

Wouldn’t make sense tho, I can imagine there to be sanctuary like in Emerald Coast, where there would be those yaks that you could ride on(new interactive feature)

[blissful roost]

Nah i suppose but it would look cool

I’m up for sacrificing a bit of realism for a cool design, realistically it could be a domesticated yak that has run off and come to live with a wild herd

[faint dragon]

And some random hunter killed it🔥

[blissful roost]

Hahaha yeah

[wise gorge]

I love these ngl they are pretty

[faint dragon]

Agree, absolute beauties
