Paint Headshots and TBs

[Ronnie Dee]

Recently, I have been viewing many very pretty Paint head shots. Unfortunately, I do not race Paints -- I only race TBs.

Is there any combination of choices to select at birth/breeding so a TB would somewhat look like a Paint if it got a head shot?

[Rochelle Bos]

Nope! Overo is a colour in TBs but not something that is an option in the sim (I’ve tried )

[Ren Marston]

I dont think theres really a combo of choices, however, i think you could order your headshot and send a message to the steward w the contact us button with examples of what you want that still fall under the restrictions of thoroughbred markings. There are lots of tb's out there with big flashy 'blazes' that would probably actually be considered a bald face but arent due to their breed! I think that would be your best bet.

Well, I don't know about that, but for me, if you look closely, Ima Shakeit Inyoface has a dark spot at the top of her neck (under the mane). I gave her a chimera spot, just for fun, and because chimeras are GORGEOUS! Just a fun little unique feature ^^

Thanks for the tip on "blazes".

When I went through the TBs starting with A, I really liked Aggron.



Is there any way to search for TB headshots that have blazes?

When I went through the As, I also noticed the roan All Good and was wondering what he might look like with a blaze instead of a star.
Are than any roan TB headshots with blazes?

Discord here is a roan with blaze

Here are all the blazes from my gallery

I also looked at her (roan) dam:



And her (roan) grand dam:



The coloring of the 3 generations of roans looks considerably different. But when I looked at RL roan images, I saw even more variance.

When I was carefully looking at Rochelle's head shots (amazing detail), I was wondering what their names were. After a moment's pause, I saw that the horse's name is imprinted on the bridle. One had SHE'S IS ALL THAT on her bridle. I searched for this horse and could not find her. I opened up my search and found that her name is She's All That (no IS).

Mistakes were made xD I am sure Nena can correct it if Rochelle wants to ^^
I too have made mistakes with the name plates xD easy accident xD

I really like Starfall's head shot (gray with a blaze). I noticed that she had a single flower (lilly?). Is this flower from her Louisville Oaks win?

Yup, special request from Rochelle, she wanted a lily, and a lily she got ^^

My intent was not to criticize. I have been enlarging the images to see all the amazing detailing in the head shots.

Ohnono, I didn't take it as criticism ^^ It was funny that you noticed it.
I made one portrait once, and spelled the name wrong, and wanted to correct it, but the owner liked the mistake and wanted to keep it xD
Don't remember who it was though xD
