Nuances and Gradients
On Markings
Overview
They say the subtle nuances in a citizen's markings are whispers of the cosmos, reflecting the depth and diversity of their individual spirits.
Rules
- Gradients are Allowed: Your markings can have a gradient effect, where the color smoothly changes across the marking.
- These gradients are allowed to be picked from the same slider as the marking or base.
- They do not need to be the same hue!
- No marking should show more than two colors unless otherwise allowed.
- These gradients must adhere to normal color rules! (i.e. an always-white marking like Snowed cannot have a black gradient, a marking that is not affected by Arcane cannot exhibit a gradient to a color picked from the Arcane slider.)
- Gradients on markings affected by a color modifier are allowed to gradient from a base color to the color modifier color (i.e. an Ink Rexal with Ocean Arcane can have markings that are Ink that gradient to a color picked from the Ocean slider.)
- Gradients can affect any marking on your Rexal, as long as it is not a color modifier!
- The Base Coat Counts as Marking: The rexal's basecoat can just as well have these gradients.
- The import PSD includes a "Free Gradient" layer that is always legal!
- Any gradient on the Base Coat must be color-picked directly from the Base Coat slider.
- Remember that you should not have more than one gradient per marking. It can be either subtle nuances or a stronger color gradient.

Markings and Color Gradients
You have the freedom to choose the colors for these markings, but there's a twist - the color can have a gradient effect, giving your Rexal a more lifelike and dynamic look!
Now, what does a gradient mean?
Think about a beautiful midday sky. Notice how the color changes gently from one shade to another? That's a gradient. In the case of your Rexal, it means the color of your markings can change across the marking itself.
