Double cream andddddd?

Post by Kiranell »

Hi Folks,

Trying to color these two horses. I assume that with the pink muzzles and blue eyes they're double creams, but beyond that I am stumped. Any hints are appreciated! Thanks in advance!

So the light eyes on these two is actually a result of tiger eye. If they were double cream without TE their eyes would look like this:

Still, you are right about them being double cream. Just incorrect as to the source of their eye color. :) Apart from the cream, they also both have silver. To be specific, Sea Strand is Silver Perlino Dun - bay + 2x cream + silver + dun. He also has tobiano stockings. Ancient Frosting is Silver Classic Cream Roan - black + 2x cream + silver + roan. (And they both have 2x tiger eye.)

That certainly helps explain why I was so confused! I kept trying to look for something similar and was consistently stumped. I find the light colors really hard to tell apart. :? Someday I'll get a hang of it.

Thanks!
