Dust
Dust is a marking that darkens the back half of the design. It must cover at least the hindlegs and may cover everything until the middle of the beast.
The edge does not have to be clearly visible! Fully blending the edge into the base coat color so the transition from marking to the base is not discernible anymore is perfectly fine.

Feel free to search for this marking in our CaveSpeaker gallery to get some inspiration or a better grasp of the marking.
However, be careful of old designs as they might be illegal by now due to previous rule changes!
Please do not just copy existing designs either, as those are the property of their designer!
