Glitz -Gli

Glitz creates spots over the body which can be small or medium sized spots depending on which you marking style you go for. This marking can cover over the entire body and should appear on at least one section of the body without eye squinting nor trying to guess where the marking is. 
It should cover at least 70% of the minimal coverage area listed below
If this marking is too hard to see on your Mythikan design, there will be a high chance of your design approval being instantly declined and asked to be reworked. You can only choose one marking style unless you are using Reversal with this marking.

 

Areas which are considered minimal coverage:

  • Neck
  • Chest
  • Shoulders / front legs (if Polymelia, should be both set of front legs)
  • Hips
  • Hind legs (If Polymelia, should be both back legs)
  • Tail

 

Speckles and Sparkles Marking style

Texture:
     

Marking Restrictions:


Colouration and interaction with other Markings:
  • Makes various small and big spots over the body.
  • Can be minuscule but should be visible to the naked eye without squint.
  • Bigger spots can imitate animals such as leopards, hyena and cheetahs.
  • Can be either lighter or darker than base coat.
  • Reversal does not affect this marking style at all.

Only with Spectral marking can you make the spots to be different colours and appear as polka dots over the body. Only with Spectral can you make the marking appear like a snow leopard spots.

Dual Tone can only make the spots fade out into the body. It would not create gradients over the marking at all.

Things to avoid
  • If you have both Spectral and Dual tone, you will need to pick one or the other.
  • It can not add gradient to your polka dots and nor can it make your spots fade out either.
  • If caught doing this, you will be asked to amend your design without it being checked.

On aquatic animals, this marking style will appear more like light reflected wave marking than spots.

Things to avoid:
  • Making the spots look irregular and random.
  • Try to keep the spots in a 'line' wrapping around the stomach and hips area.
  • Spectral, Reversal nor Dual Tone can affect this marking.
