Crystal works different based on what kind of build and species type you have.
If you do not know what your species type is, you can find it in the species information.
There are 4 different types which you must go with based on your Mythikan and build.
If you have a species with Sphynx marking, you can select either the spynx marking style or the species tye marking style.
You will require Spectral on any of the marking styles below if you want to colours which range out of your base coat colour range.
The markings need to be brighter than the base coat and any marking you have on your Mythikan already.
Sphynx Marking Style
Texture:
Marking Restrictions:

Colouration and interactions with other markings:
- Can only be used if you have sphynx build
- Creates 'tear drop' like shapes over the body that follows the muscle curves.
- Can also connect them to make a more petal look.
- Needs to use various 'brighter' colours than the base coat.
- This does not mean saturated!
- The border to these tear drop shapes, you would need to use white.
- You can also use Characoal palette for adding a 'spot' inside the tear drop shape.
- Dual Tone and Reversal does not affect Sphynx builds' marking style at all.
