Okay so technically I got this ask over on @only-horse-polls but it feels like it belongs here more.

Step 1. Draw your creature. I'm old school so we're doing this in flat white, no transparent or layering.

Step 2. Put down the 2 primary colors that you're gonna fade between. Make sure to get all those tiny pixels.

Step 3. Note the two colors' RGB values. When you know the RGB of both colors, note how big the difference in values is.

Step 4.1. Now if you don't feel like taking out each transition color one at a time, you can open whatever art program of your choice be it SAI, photoshop, mediabang, all you need is the gradient tool.

We're gonna use 14 transition colors so we're making a 16 by 16 canvas. If you want more or less transition colors size your canvas accordingly.

Select the gradient tool, apply your two base colors, and make a gradient. Make sure the two utmost colors are your base colors. Now you can simply copy and paste that gradient into paint.

Step 4.2. If you want to only work in paint or can't be bothered opening a new program you first have to figure out how much your RGB values are gonna have to change with each transition color. Do this by dividing your value difference by however many transition colors you want. In our case, it's 100, 87, and 80 divided by 14.

100/14 = 7.1 (round to closest, 7)

87/14 = 6.2 (round to closest, 6)

80/14 = 5.7 (round to closest, 6)

These are the numbers we're gonna add or retract, depending on which base color we start at.

If you land on #.4 or #.5 or #,6 I'd recommend altering between rounding up and down for every color.

For example; you have 8.4, round to 8 for the first transition color and 9 on the second, then 8 on the third, and so on.

Step 5. Section out where the transition is going to be using other colors and assign each section color to a transition color.

Step 6. Select your section color in your first color slot (you can do this by pressing 'I' to get your color selector and then left-clicking the color you want to select), and your corresponding transition color in your secondary color slot (can be done by right-clicking with your eyedrop/color selector).

Then press 'E' to select the eraser, make it a decent size, and then right-click and drag it over the transition areas!

Step 7. Continue until you've covered all section colors with your transition colors, after that you can add whatever else you want to your creature and you're done!

Welcome to the Tumblr Horse Coat Color Tournament

The name doesn't really roll off the tongue, we know, but THCCT does look funny.

If you want to submit a coat color please do so here!

When submitting please make sure - That the coat is not already submitted in the Coat Color List bellow - That you use universal coat names and not local/breed-specific names (for example sorrel instead of chestnut or piebald instead of pinto) - Avoid using terms such as "painto" or "appaloosa" or "paint" as they are not coated specifically but rather group names of multiple coats or breeds of horses, not colors. (If you are unsure what the name of the coat is, feel free to submit a photo instead or look at this handy guide!)

The tournament will start on the 16th of April, until then feel free to submit as many colors as you want and spread the word about THCCT!
