On the Scales, not sure if it's too late, but I would suggest (if possible) to make the scales smaller on the head, or a bit more sparse. The scales there are just a bit too large for head coverage. Otherwise, the rest look fantastic and patch scales will be really nice! I think the scales are free markings so you can resize & place them as you please. Ah hah! I wasn't sure if they were an all body pattern or markings. That makes them even more wonderful!

Yeah, I haven't learned to make regionals. ^_^" I was just way too lazy to put them together like they should be put together. That was just, kind of a demo. I may attempt Robo-pony marks, though since I can't make Regionals, I don't know how well that'll turn out... ^_^ I do love Akhal Tekes- It seems though, I can't get into webs to add my new colts. >_< Oh well. I don't know that I'd get much into selling and buying anyway, since I don't do the registry or anything like that. Or know how it works. ^_^ I went on kind of a... Surprise vacation. Whereas my grandma took me shopping, and confiscated my laptop. >_> So, that's why the scales aren't done. Thanks everyone, I hope you enjoy them when they come out!

Regionals really are no different than splotches, as long as you make a clone of a marking from the region you need. =3 Once you figure out how the map actually raps around on the horse's body, you'd have no problem with it. <3

EDIT AGAIN: Facepalm. I like, repeated what you said because I didn't read it right the first time. Sorry! D: EDIT, because I usually don't double post: The scales aren't completely finished, but here's what I have so far. www.mediafire.com/?6a52qmhti8qt0xd

Well if the robo pony markings come out anything like the Tribals and scales. It should look pretty fantastic. Good luck on the effort.

Here's the coat I made Unfortunately the "invisible sim" errors is affecting my game as well. I wanted to show you how it looks in game, but the horse was invisible when I put him in the household. I had it happen before after doing a really complicated coat, but was able to rescue the coat by saving both the sim and coat in CAS (which I did for this coat as a precautionary measure). Didn't want to deal with it anymore tonight so I'm crossing my fingers when I start the game tomorrow I won't have to remake it from the beginning, especially since his conformation is a bit complicated as well. Also providing the direct link to the pictures since it's much larger when linked as it's hard to see the scales this size (once on the linked page, you can press "Ctrl+" to increase it more if on a Windows OS) i180.photobucket.com/albums/x25/Schrodingercat88/Sims%203/Screenshot-38.jpgi180.photobucket.com/albums/x25/Schrodingercat88/Sims%203/Screenshot-40.jpgMy suggestion would be to make the scales as "patches" instead of rectangular "sheets." It's hard when they are squares to merge them together or color them differently for highlighted area. If they are more circular, or even just a rounded square, I think it would be easier to merge the markings together and create a coat that "flows" better. In my opinion, at least.

That coat is awesome and the confirmation is lovely as well!! ^_^ I haven't had the invisible sim error yet, at least not for more than a few seconds, but I hope you can get it straightened out D: And, I shall work on the scales and make circles, but not today... I'm really, really, REALLY sick. There's a virus going around here that makes you throw up repeatedly for hours, then just generally feel weak and disoriented for a few days. Oh, and it's highly contagious. D: So, I'm taking a break for today, though I should be feeling a little better tomorrow and we'll see then.

www.mediafire.com/?zbwj35v0f1xyzx6Here's a scale piece for highlights- Or general markings, whatever you want to use it for. The sides are rounded and airbrushed, so it should be easier to use for highlighting, which is why I called it Highlight Specific Scale Piece. Enjoy!

Oh wow, she is BEAUTIFUL. Thank you for sharing her, that just made my day. ^_^ I looked at doing a full body mark for the robopony- I see it happening, but not for a few days. D:
