Minimum Coverage
​
There should be a minimum of at least 20% of the marking restrictions shown.
This can cover the majority of the shoulder blades or just over the ribcage.
When using the minimum amount and you do not have 'breaks' between the shoulder blades and ribcage. You can not use the highlights as they require you to have the gaps.
Bare Sable
​
Bare sable is when you just have the darker parts of the marking without any of the highlights.
All of this marking needs to be soft blurred to fully blurred.
X Do Not Do
​
Sable can not have any 'holes' within the marking.
You can make gaps, however ensure that you do not make the marking be disconnected from each part covering an area.
Do not have any sharp edges within the marking.
Highlighted Sable
​
With Sable, you have an option to create 'highlights' within your gaps or on top of the gaps.
You could even be sneaky and make the highlights be connecting 2 dark parts of your Sable together to make it look like it has no gaps within the marking, however you need to make them blended together.
Here are some marking examples to show what we mean.
