Shape and Placement

  • You need to add one diamond as a minimum.
  • Diamonds and arrowheads must not be too spindly or disconnected.
  • Does not need to touch the spine; diamonds can freely float in the range as long as they still follow the flow of the body.
  • May include stray marks in-between the diamonds.
  • Both Het and Hom may present a different colored outline around the marking.
  • This marking cannot mimic other markings, especially Python, Saddle, and Barred.

Color

  • This marking is always bi-colored.
    -- Both the inner and outer color must be darker than the base.
  • An optional outline can be added to the outside of the marking, which can be lighter or darker than the color it sits on top of.
  • When Het, each part can be one solid color.
    -- Both parts should be different colors, so that each part is visible.
  • When Hom, each part and the optional outline can have a two-tone gradient.
    -- The additional color and direction of the gradient can differ between parts.
  • Can be any natural color.
  • Can be affected by color modifiers.
