May have incorrect eye-colour, please refer to the eye-colour section instead.

Eye colour: Tawny brown

Tawny eyes have very warm tones and can be any shade from bright/rich brown to a darker golden or orange. They should not appear light golden or yellow, and should also not appear unnaturally red or orange.

Skin colour: Tawny brown

Tawny brown

Tawny brown skin should be brown or a dark pink. It has an increased amount of red pigment, and is allowed to be a darker shade of brown like dark chocolate as long as it's not appearing as dark grey or grey/black. It's also allowed to be fairly light/pink as long as it still looks naturally brown in tone. Skin areas affected by white patterns or markings must be light pink.

Horn/hoof colour: Tawny

Tawny horns and hooves should be a richer brown, and can vary in brightness between very dark brown to a sienna brown.

If white markings are touching, the affected parts of tawny horns and hooves will be very light or cream-coloured.

You can freely customize your design's basecoat and mane/tail with subtle variations in brightness and saturation, giving it a slightly countershaded appearance, as long as it doesn't mimic genes your Veilhorn doesn't have. Countershading should not be so visible that it looks like Pangare or Sooty.

Subtle dark or light dapples may be added on any coat even if genes that normally causes dapples are not present. Note that "natural" dapples should be faint and may not mimic genes your Veilhorn doesn't have.
