Crescent Cove MHA Summer Show 2024
This is the 10th edition of the discord group Crescent Cove Model Horses and Art's Quarterly photo shows! As usual, this show is 100% free of charge but is ONLY for members of CCMHA on Discord. New members are welcome as well, you can join by this link: Link . For new members you will need to answer a few questions and select your roles to be fully in the group, then comment your OMHPS username in the “omhps-usernames” channel! If you aren’t seeing the option, you might need to select your roles first! If you have any questions contact me on Discord, Naomithewolf.
1. Place horses in the correct classes. If the class your horse should have been in has already been judged, your horse will be DQ. I try to steward but don't always get to. 2. Models should be shown on non-distracting backgrounds that don't cover the horse. Realistic backgrounds are fine but should be to scale. 3. No NSFW models. The server is PG13 and the show is too. 4. Do not enter more than 3 horses per class. If you somehow enter more than 3, ALL your entries in the class will be DQ. 5. No, I will not let people in the show that are not in the Discord server. This show is a celebration of our community and anyone is welcome to join the community!
This show has a private list of entrants that are allowed to enter.

I am not clicking all the pony breeds for this class ;_; please just enter your ponies here. If you enter other breeds here they will be DQ unless they're a cross that includes ponies.

Not sure why OMHPS puts American Saddlebreds here but to keep me from getting confused they're here.

This type of appaloosa has white concentrated to their hips! If the white goes past the shoulders they are considered semi-leopard. I especially love when the markings follow hair patterns.
Frame overo tends to cause ragged, jagged white markings that are centered on the body, not crossing the midline (Spine or sternum). Often causes blue eyes. Does not necessarily cause leg white.
Leopard appaloosas! Show me your loud markings. I especially love when the markings follow the hair pattern!
Any white marking that covers 90% of the horse or more. Not Fewspot appy. These horses can be nearly pure white or pure white. Most often they will have brown eyes but can have blue. They may have some spots in the skin or some pigmented spots on the body.
Any horse with multiple pinto patterns (tovero, tobiano+sabino, Sabino + splash, etc...) No pintaloosas here!
All other patterns that include appaloosa, Semi-leopard, Varnish, Fewspot, Frosted, and all versions of pintaloosa!
Rabicano can look similar to sabino but the genetic cause is still unknown. It causes white ticking that concentrates to the flanks of the horse with or without vertical stripes. The tail head will show horizontal barring like a raccoon tail. Rabicano horses often have blazes and high leg white but not always.
Sabino likes to cause jagged patchy white markings that come from low on the body. At their minimum form they tend to have blazes with lower lip white, dark spots on the lips, and hind leg white. At maximum form, as with homozygous sabino, the horse may be all white with brown eyes (these horses should be entered in the max white class!). Sabino can cause extensive ticking in the body, looking like a form of roan or rabicano almost.
Splash horses often have bald faces and 4 white socks. They can have a ton of white with only a Medicine hat pattern left or can hide splash altogether showing blue eyes. If your horse is solid with blue eyes because of splash, enter them in the solid class for this show. :)
For this section we focus on the base coats you give your horse. All these horses must not have pinto or appaloosa markings. They can have face and leg white. If your horse has multiple dilutes and could fit in multiple classes you may choose "Other Dilutes"
Classes
Any shade of bay! Seal bay to wild bay with or without sooty. Bay horses have brown body with black concentrated to the lower legs, mane and tail, and ear tips. The skin is black and eyes are brown unless affected by a white marking.
Black can be jet to faded to brown but the easiest way to tell black from dark dark bay, is the cinnamon shading around the muzzle. Black horses should not show cinnamon around the muzzle. The skin is black and eyes are brown unless affected by a white marking.
Buckskin horses are bay with one copy of cream. Cream only dilutes the red pigment so black stays the same. Shade can vary from Burnt Buckskin (seal bay base) to Buttermilk buckskin with creamy white body and black points. Skin is black and eyes are brown.
Champagne and Pearl look different depending on the base coat. Both will cause body dilution and black markings diluting to a more brown shade but they work a little differently. They both cause freckled pink skin and the both can cause green eyes. Champagne is visible even with only one copy and looks no different with two copies. Pearl is on the same locus as Cream and only shows if there are two genes present (Pearl+Cream or Pearl+Pearl).
Lack of black pigment all throughout the body results in a chestnut horse. Varying from near palomino in appearance to nearly black, chestnuts most often have lighter lower leg hair even in their darkest shades. Chestnuts may have flaxen, same color as body, mixed, or darker mane and tail. The skin is black and they eyes are brown unless affected by a white marking.
For the darker greys. If you can still tell the horse's base coat they should be entered here. High contrast, intricate dapple greys belong here as well as very young greys with only a few white hairs beginning.
Double cream goes here! you can't really tell double dilutes about visually. They will always have pink skin and blue eyes but may vary in shade from cream to white to silvery.
Any and all duns! Dun causes body dilution, thick dorsal stripe that goes through the tail and leg barring. It can also cause dark mask on the face, striping on the forehead, ear bars, shoulder stripes, and in extreme cases "Skewed Dun" which appears like brindle!
Any fantasy or decorators. If your unicorn is bay overo, still enter it here. Leaving the color options completely open.
This is more up to your eyes on how you enter your horse. This class is more for late stage greying but some horses may show lots of fleabites before losing all their dapples so you can choose. I would only move horses if they're practically solid base coat still and entered in this class.
Any dilute with multiple dilutes or that doesnt fit in the other classes.
Chestnut with 1 copy of cream dilution. Cream only dilutes red pigment so the entire horse is diluted. Color varies from a dark chocolate to nearly white. In it's lightest form palomino can be told apart from double cream by skin color. Palomino horses have black skin and brown eyes unless affected by a white marking.
Technically on the same locus as Tobiano, sabino, and some other white patterns but I like including it as a solid class. If your horse shows roan, enter it here even if it has dun, cream, champagne, or another dilution. Do not enter here if your roan is patterned.
Combined these two because Mushroom is rare but looks quite similar to silver. Silver only affects black or bay based horses, diluting the mane and tail and fetlocks. It may also dilute the body a little. Mushroom is a different gene altogether seemingly only found in Shetland ponies. It only shows on chestnut horses in homozygous form, all other base coats or single gene horses will be carries and look normal.

Tobiano loves to have rounded edges and tends to cause 4 white legs in its most minimal form, max tobiano often still leaves the head dark. These horses tend to have little face white too.
