Shape and Placement

  • Painted creates irregular but two-colored blotches or patches.
  • The blotches and markings created by Painted must remain natural-looking and irregular.
    -- They cannot create specific shapes like stripes or unnatural shapes like swirls, etc.
  • As a minimum, at least a few patches must be visible.
    -- As a maximum it cover the whole body, as long as the base coat is still recognizable and visible against Painted.
  • It may present holes and some stray spots coming off of the blotches.
  • This marking cannot mimic other markings, especially Patches.

Color

  • This marking is always bi-colored.
    -- The lower layer must be darker than both the base coat and the upper layer.
    -- The upper layer can be darker or lighter than the base coat.
  • 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 can have a two-toned gradient.
    -- The additional color and direction of the gradient can differ between parts.
    -- Both colors of the lower layer need to be darker than the colors of the base coat and the upper layer.
  • Can be any natural color.
  • Can be affected by color modifiers.
