Need some help with dilutions

Post by Aubergine »

So I just purchased this mare, my guess is 2 Cr w/ Champagne, but I'm not sure what base coat she has and the varnish could be obscuring something. Any ideas?

Looking at her younger photos she actually does not appear to be a double cream. At her current age she has a lot of varnish and champagne lightening making her appear paler than before. She is actually a Gold Cream - chestnut + champagne + 1x cream. Her newborn and 4-year-old pictures are the giveaway here. If she was double cream she would have been much closer to white in both of those images.

I apologize. I went back through my log of diluted champagnes and she does appear to be cremello champagne. So chestnut + champagne + 2x cream.
