Effects
- Skin: skin will be light pink under any white patterns
- Horns and hooves: hooves will be light where white leg markings connect [Horn & hoof color guide]
- Eye color: eyes can optionally be blue even if white facial markings do not reach them, and will always be blue if white markings do reach. [Eye color guide]
- White patterns cause a lack of color pigment in the coat, resulting in pink skin and white hairs. Skin will always be pink under white markings, even if blue dilute is present.
- Modifiers, Dilutions and Patterns must always go under white patterns, and are also not allowed to "appear" to go over white patterns.
- Can generally cause blue eyes if the white markings reach the eyes, unless otherwise specified.
- Hooves and horns will be lighter when affected by white.
- The minimum expression of each white pattern (except natural white which is optional) can only be reduced with Occlusion, which can partially or fully "turn off" or hide genes.
Appearance
Splash causes white markings appearing as if the horse has been dipped in white paint. The markings should always start from the hooves and bottom of the face, and extend upwards
At minimal expression splash needs to have medium-tall white socks on all four legs and a "bottom-heavy" white face marking.
The edges of the markings should be smooth/even, and not have roaning or holes. The only exception is the face, where the eyes and lips can have spots showing the base coat color.
