Frontier

Overview

There's an old belief that wherever the marking that frontier outlines is a body area that is prone to injury. And since this marking often shows on the marking throw, especially older rex complain about it being a foretelling of back pain.

Rules and Ranges Special Interactions Examples

Rules

  • Frontier outlines any markings you choose as long as the markings have a defined edge!
  • Frontier can be darker or lighter than the base coat. OR a color that is present somewhere on the coat. This includes Fisher's Blush, Pigment and Arcane.
  • Frontier's thickness can vary.
  • You are allowed to omit some lines from the marking should the necessity be there
    (Other markings sitting on top, body proportions, the marking gets hidden by a gradient, etc)
  • Mind places where lines overlap! 
  • Frontier should never come off as another marking that lays beneath the one you are putting frontier around! Don't make it too thick!
    • Generally, Frontier should not be thicker than 70px around your marking.
  • If frontier ends up obscuring other markings, you may get asked to clean it up a bit or put it on another marking.
    • Make sure it clearly shows as a line around a marking and never otherwise!

Special Interactions

Some markings interact uniquely with Frontier, creating distinctive presentations when combined. Here's a list of these special markings.

Daub

Whenever Daub and Frontier are both present on a geno, Frontier is allowed to show up as a organized mottling surrounding the marking's edges instead of a solid line! This may affect as many marks as you'd like!

Petal

When Frontier and Petal are both present on a geno, Petal is allowed to affect other Defined-edged markings! Petal can then erase small portions from affected markings' edges and add more spots on the outside, almost giving a mottled effect. This effect should never take up more than 50% of a marking's edges!

Arcane

Arcane and Frontier have a rather neat, unique interaction. Should Arcane be present, the rolled Arcane color is allowed to be worked into Frontier in soft gradients.

Caelestia

Whenever Frontier and Caelestia are on a geno, you may choose Caelestia as an affected marking! In this case, Frontier should have an undefined edge.

Frontier-Only Examples

 

Frontier needs to be around the entire marking unless a body part interferes with it.
A somewhat textured edge is allowed! Be careful so it does not look mottled. There should be no holes in the edge.
