Since the beta I have collected many pictures of different coat colours with and without dilutions to have as a reference when deciding what a horse's colour could be. I thought I could share them with others and hopefully help with the understanding of the genetics behind.

First off is the base colours that most people already know about. In the chart I try to briefly explain the genetics behind.
Note: There are many more variations of these colours than the pictures that are shown. Darker/lighter shades of chestnut, brown and bay do exist in the game.
Also, if you want to see enlarged versions of the pictures I have posted a second message in this topic where I have listed links.

Sooty bay, greying out. Plus Metallic gene :)
So in real life, this horse would simply be called "grey".

Thanks for all your great work.
I have a mare who I believe to be Chestnut Cream Pearl. Link, I've saved a picture of her at 4 years old.

This is a great thing for us who know basically nothing about horse colors! I have a horse here;
http://www.horseworldonline.net/horse/profile/80799

That I have no clue what she may be. I think maybe some kind of champagne or pearl? Perhaps cream. I simply am very unsure, as you can all see. And as I see no genetics, it's even harder to find out :$

Thank you, again, for making this!

She's really difficult to place for me. She's 100% Champagne, though. See the freckly nose?
