Ice (Color Mutation)

Ice

BigDivider

Ice is a color mutation that turns the base coat color of the beast into a light gray with dark blue-ish gray accents on the feet and face. These accents can be added as minimally as you would like, but must be present in some way. The colors themselves cannot be chosen freely and have to be taken from the swatch found under “Colors”! However, it is allowed to create a slight gradient for the base coat from the top to bottom by picking two different colors.
The new base coat color has an influence on markings, which are relevant to the base coat color, as well! Instead of taking the original base coat color (e.g. Earth, Snow or Suntouched Fawn) as a reference, the colors of the markings have to be relevant to the gray picked from the swatch.
Any additional markings that are present in the phenotype are optional and do not have to be added to the design.
