Dark Shades Contest [CLOSED]

Post by AltNazarach »

Hello everyone,

as I'm usure if there ever was a similiar contest I thought 'well, why not' so here is my Dark Shades Contest. ^^

In this contest the most beautiful or interesting forms of sooty will be evaluated.

For ease of decision, these traits may lower the result:
- tobiano - paint coverings (leg- or headmarkings are ok)
- leopard complex + any form of varnish
- roan
- many cumulative dillutions (like cream+pearl+champagne - or for ease of comprehension, no 'white' horses)

The contest will end on the last day of this month, sunday the 30. june and the placements will be up the day after, on monday.
Prices:
1st place: 5k and choosing a free stud with any stallion on my accounts (AltNazarach, Nazarach)
2nd: 4k + a free stud
3rd: 3k + a free stud
4rth: 2k + a free stud
5th: 1k + a free stud

Everyone will be allowed to post 1 horse per account (so, if you have two different accounts you can put up 2 horses), if you post on a second account put in a notice, as I may consider a lower placement if a horse from someone already placed and another are currently equal.

So, have fun and show me your shaded beauties :D
_____________
HINT:
It would be nice if you give care that the placed horses really do have sooty.
For those unsure what I mean with sooty, here are a few examples:

Horse with a sooty backside



A Bay with heavy sooty



A Buckskin with a nice covering of sooty

The dapples are a form of sooty so all is well ;) Also a nice variation of sooty (and I like buckskins <3 )- he looks a bit like a catfish :D
