Could a horse expert help me determine the coats and patterns of these horses?

-snip-

Horses: Dapple grey sabino | Blue roan maximal sabino | Bay leopard appaloosa

Ponies: Palomino splash pinto | Silver bay snowflake appaloosa | Black overo pinto

Sabino can also mimic roaning due to the dispersal of white hairs in the coat from the pattern, but the blue roan horse seems to have black points (and he is very blue), so that's what I'm calling it. Trompy, how'd we do?

(I don't know anything about yaks so I'll let Lillian field that one lol)

luxlustravi, thank you very much! Would you recommend any site where I can learn about the coats and patterns of horses? I'd love to be able to determine them on my own, without bothering other people ^^"

August of 2010


November of 2011

And this little one is just based off a cocoon I believe! I don't know if there's a specific one in mind with the yellow feather, but I hope this helps!

If any of these are wrong someone correct me

They're all based on existing butterfly wolves! ZEL matched them all up here: Forum/viewtopic.php?p=140316118#p140316118

OOps I didin't see this

Thanks you so much I'm not too good at recognising the patterns, only knowing certain colours seem familiar

Wikipedia is a good resource for coat colours honestly. This site is a good starting point as well, as it has photos to go with the descriptions.

No problem, Devik! Seconding wikipedia, which is legit what I use for things like this, lol.

I will say that you shouldn't feel like a bother, since it's a complicated subject in general and certain colors and patterns can be difficult to pin down on top of that. (And, because we're dealing with drawings and not real animals, the artist may not always be available to clarify, especially if you're waist-deep in the archives.) It's not bad to ask for a second opinion if you feel like you need one!

Wow! What a great looking bird! I love the colors. This is definitely my favorite pet so far.

[willoftheklaxxi]

These may be my favorite advent pets so far! :] They have big cryptid energy.

The candycane one is my favorite - those markings are gorgeous!
