Haze

(nHz/HzHz)

Haze is a color modifier and does not make its own markings!

Haze desaturates the kukuri's whole coat and all of their markings. Haze does not change the value rules of markings, meaning if a marking requires a darker value, that marking should still remain darker. Hazed may completely desaturate the coat.
To see Hazed's color sliders, check the Coat colors page!

There are points where the original base color can faintly show through, but those areas a subtle.

Haze also affects ALL free areas, this includes hands, feet, horns and ears.

This image can be colorpicked for rough saturation limits with showthrough!

Dominant Haze (HzHz) allows its markings to retain normal saturation. The basecoat will always be affected by Haze however.

The following markings are NOT affected by Haze:

Candied, Magma, (dom) Foam, Stargaze, Crested, Heart, Luminescent, Iridescent, Mosaic, Eidos.

A Guide to Haze

Hazed color must be picked from the Hazed sliders or should be completely desaturated.

Showthrough Rules

Showthrough

Haze showthrough allows for a more saturated color to peak through the Haze, however there are some rules regarding the show through that should be noted!

Haze showthrough can't change in value or hue from the basecoat. This means they should remain the same brightness and in the same color on the colorwheel.

The only aspect that changes is the saturation! The image to left is the maximum amount allowed of saturation difference between showthrough and the hazed base.

Correct Showthrough

Color pt2

Your showthrough's color can't be too saturated either.
Any combination of these things may result in your Haze's showthrough being sent to corrections!

To the left is an example of the wrong kind of showthrough colors. This showthrough is very saturated and brighter than the basecolor. This showthrough would not pass approvals!

Incorrect Showthrough

Shape and color

Haze showthrough should always be a gradient. It can't be any other edge type. It also can't be too brightly colored/saturated.

To the left are examples of what you shouldn't do.

Incorrect examples

Range

Haze showthrough doesn't have a strict range, but it can appear only on certain points of a kukuri.

It may appear in the following areas:

Head
Hands and feet
Tail
Shoulder

To the left is a visual of where showthrough may appear. You do not need to use all of these areas, or all of the range per area.

Haze Showthrough on Prairies

Showthrough on Prairies may impact their feathers and natural mane.

You do not need to affect all or any of these areas if you choose. You can affect the head feathers and leave the rest of the feathers desaturated if wanted!

Haze on Markings

Haze can be presented in a few different ways.

Markings show some color

Markings can show some color. Above (left) is the highest saturation level colors can reach!

Mix of Saturations

Markings can be different levels of saturation, ranging from grey-scale to the highest saturation allowed by Haze. You do not need to stick with only greyscale or only saturated!

Comple greyscale

Lastly, you can entirely desaturate every marking and the basecoat, making an all grey kukuri!
