Glossy
Glossy is a marking that adds up to two (2) patches of a bluish-gray color.
While there is no size restriction on how big or small those patches may be, they should not cover the entire beast but still be clearly present in some way on the design.
Be careful when coloring your beasts’ leg with Glossy! Every time there is a clear break between two (2) or more areas and they are not touching anymore they count as their own patch. When coloring the legs without connecting them (e.g. by adding color on the stomach) they will count as four (4) different patches and therefore be over the limit of two (2).

Colors
The color for Glossy has to be taken from this swatch, except the coat color is Twilight Night. In this case Glossy must be lighter than the base coat color and the saturation may be adjusted a little bit to make the color more blue.
Please open the sta.sh link by clicking on the swatch and save the image, as taking colors from screenshots or copy and pasted versions might influence the colors. This often leads us to not being able to find the corresponding color on the swatch and we have to send your design to corrections!
Edges
Glossy must have either a soft edge or be textured with a soft edge.
