Free markings are meant to look blended into the coat as a birthmark or a nuance. They are not real markings and should not resemble markings.
Color Rules
Colors are derived from the base color based on the rules for each marking,
Passable genetic markings do not affect free marks.
Limits
You may not use all of the listed free markings on a croc at once, you will need to choose a combination of them based on the allowances listed below. All these markings can have a bit of shape to them.
Combo Allowances:
1 belly mark, 1 back mark, 1 pattern mark, 2 floating marks and 2 head marks
Free Markings are meant to be subtle additions to designs so they are limited to being within 20 saturation and value points from the basecoat or marking they sit ontop of. For example, if your basecoat has a saturation of 174 and a value of 171... Max Saturation 194, Min Saturation 154. Max Value 191, Min Value 151.
<----- The Example beside this is pulled off Sai and FireAlpaca the range is roughly as big as the squares on the pallets.
