Colors

The color you pick for Cheekdots must be relevant to the base coat color. To make the marking more colorful however, it is possible to turn the Saturation up as much as you want!

Design Notes

Shape:
In general the marking itself is round. However, we do allow small variations: a more oval shape for example or the marking slightly following the heads’ shape.
We also allow the marking to consist of up to 3 smaller circles, as long as they are all connected. Neither may it mimic Spotting or Speckles, so be careful with the sizes!
