Part 6.

White patterns not including Appaloosa patterns (that will be a different set of horses).

Side note on terminology:

Piebald means "Black and White", and can refer to any of the above patterns save Roan and Rabicano.

Skewbald means "Any colour other than black and White", and can refer to any of the above patters save Roan and Rabicano. Skewbald can refer to bay, chestnut, palomino, champagne, etc.

Another side note on terminology:

A Paint is a breed of horse. Paints descend from American Quarter Horse, Paint, or Thoroughbred blood ONLY. It should not be used to refer to other breeds of horse.

A Pinto is a colour pattern. A pinto can be any breed of horse that carries the genetics for the patterns. There are pinto Saddlebreds, pinto Shetland ponies, pinto Gypsy Vanners, etc.

I couldn't help but notice the sabino has blue eyes. There is no evidence to suggest sabino gives blue eyes.
Blue eyes come from frame overo and splash white and double dilutes, and on the topic of double dilutes, your cream gene one is lacking blue eyes on the cremello, perlino and smoky cream. Hope you don't mind me nitpicking over that. XD;
:iconkholran:
I don't mind lol I changed my template halfway through to remove the black eyes, which is why the others don't really have an eye color.

There are plenty of cases in which a sabino horse does have blue eyes: [link] , [link] , and [link] for example. It's definitely not unheard of, and I like blue eyes ;)

You should do things like birdcatcher spots, tetriarch spots, bendor (smut/grease spots) bloodmarks and bloody shoulders.

I'm planning on it. There's going to be another one for modifiers (mealy, sooty, flaxen and grey), one for appaloosa patterns, and one for "other" (manchado, bend or spots, badger face, etc). I'll probably do another for leg and face markings as well. Don't worry the series is far from done XD

If you need the genotypes for each colour just say. I am doing equine genetics in university right now.

Awesome! I was going to include those, but I couldn't be bothered to work with the superscript for things like Ccr so I just put the layman's terms XD

Yeah. Not like most people need them unless they intend to breed for colour.

And here are the pintos! I just left a comment on your VHR thread requesting them. Beautiful work.
:iconkholran:
