There isny any Paint markings in the game yet, so just chestnut Appaloosa. Cherry is a good description.

haltanny is correct, with one addition note. We do have tobiano in the game, but your horse doesn't appear to have any tobiano markings.

The word: pintaloosa is a combination of pinto and appaloosa, and usually indicates a color combination of appaloosa and paint markings (sabino, I assume, tobaino, etc).

I do not think, though of course, I could be wrong, that a breed Paint with appaloosa markings and devoid of actual tobiano, sabino, overo genes would be considered a 'true pintoloosa'... however, since a breed Paint is in itself a descendant of these same genes... maybe it could. It's a good question. :mrgreen:

A PINTALOOSA shall be defined as any horse which is the result of breeding a Pinto or Paint horse to an Appaloosa horse. The pintaloosa horse may exhibit only pinto or appaloosa markings, both types of markings, or no markings at all.
From the Pintaloosa registration.

Personally, I would have called the horse 'chestnut extended blanket' since Appaloosa is a breed, not a colour. I see, however, that I am just a tiny bit late replying to the original question :lol: just by like, a minute or two... maybe more, not a lot

:| That actually sounds like it's breed specific and not just color generic.

But appaloosa can also be a color, not just a breed... Well... defining the generic from the specific, can be as simple as the titling of the words...
Appaloosa = breed
appaloosa = color
Paint = breed
paint = color
Pintaloosa = breed
pintaloosa = color

At least that's the way that I can distinguish it in quick reference. However, not everybody will be accepting of that.

Thanks for doing the quick search to look it up. :mrgreen:

I see, I will make sure to remember that appaloosa's are a breed if i run into those colors again. Thank you so much! this is alot of great info :D I am currently just working with North African Barbs at the moment trying to improve the GPA and stats and Conformation (WIP im still not great at it lol) But i think with the NAB i just have to worry bout the Tobiano white markings for now and learning every other colour they come in XD
