Submerged

Overview

This marking is said to originate from when the rex moved to the dome. Those rexals who mourned the sun and would seek it out even underwater were branded with its rays, falling through the ocean's surface. It's a very pretty marking, but those with it are teased for having sentimentality in their bloodline.

Rules and Ranges Tutorial Examples

Rules

  • This marking is open for interpretation, as long as it is recognizable!
  • The linework should always have a defined edge.
  • Sumberged is allowed to fade into the base.
  • The bottom layer must be darker than the basecoat, while the upper layer must be lighter.
    • The bottom layer is entirely optional!
  • Make sure this marking never looks like Rain!
  • When used as a modifier, Submerged creates a ripple-like effect on the edges of other markings, giving them a water-like appearance.
    • This effect works only on markings that are white or lighter than the base coat.
    • Keep in mind that the intention is to emulate the patterns formed by water, so strive to achieve this organic feel in your design.

Here's a guide for a simple submerged pattern:

Pick a color darker than the base coat to draw various natural (oval-circular) shapes of varying sizes. They don’t necessarily have to be touching. The only strong DON’T here is making the shapes too uniform or geometric. 

 Connect the shapes by filling in the spaces in between. 

Erase smaller holes in the filling as seen fit. 

Pick a color lighter than the base coat to once again draw oval-like shapes on top of the previous layer.

Once again, fill in the spaces between the shapes.

Again, erase small holes in filling as needed.

All done! Both layers will become the submerged marking!
If desired, use a soft brush to erase the edges of the marking. This step is entirely optional!
