Description
EDIT: I forgot to mention...Everyone is welcome to draw Amistads old design if you prefered that one to this one!
I'll still be drawing Amistad with the gold in her mane from time to time, but this design will be her 'main' one. So, as you can all see i have changed Amistads design.
The reason for this is because i wanted to make my design of her more unique and original, because really, anyone can draw a picture of a grey horse and add streaks of gold in it's mane and tail.I hope her design won't be too difficult for you if you ever plan to draw her.
I may even struggle myself. 
But overall i'm quite proud of it, and i hope you all like it too!
Also, i feel like i've missed out something on the refference...

may i please draw her with her spots but the gold in her mane aswell ?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Of course!
But i have to let you know that some people mix her design up.
Some people that have drawn her tend to make the white on her tail fade to black.
It is in fact a single strip of black and white...I didn't draw it clear enough, i guess. But it is clear on the foal.
Just thought i'd let you know in case you planned on drawing her tail.
Thanks so much!

and not a problem at all
i think her design is very interesting,,, but i do really like the gold in her mane+tail....it makes it more unique
but i like her grey and white as well

Thank you!
I, personally, can't wait to see it!
It'll be quite different, i never even thought to draw her with her new design - AND the strips of gold in her mane and tail.
Should be great!
Thank you!

sorry, but amistad is a masculine name in spanish, it means friendship.(that wasn't critisism it was just a comment!) it doesn't matter though, you want her to have that name then go ahead hun
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Obviously i know what it means.
I know all of my OCs names and their meanings so i'd appreciate it if you didn't tell me something i already knew as it'd be a waste of your time and mine.
And in the dictionary i use for the Spanish language, it say's it is femimine.
Thanks for your comment though, but i think you're wrong in that respect.
Sorry if that sounded nasty in any way...I was just a bit annoyed that you told me what the name meant.
I mean, wouldn't you be annoyed if you gave your horse a spanish name (and you knew what it meant) yet i told you anyway? It makes me look stupid.
Thanks any way.

yeh sorry! because I was making a new character with a masculine spanish name and on the website it said Amistad. so I guess I just went on a crappy website! You didn't sound rude at all!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah...I am sorry for sounding rude, i don't want to offend someone nice like you, i'm just a bit headstrong at times, so ignore me if i say something you don't like.
Thanks again, and y'know, i might be wrong even. :S
Though when it did say feminim when i chose it...Hmm.
I hope she's not got a masculine name!
Then i'll deffinitely have to change it!

I liked old Ammie's gold mane
She looks so cute and spunky.

Lol. 
Thank you! I want her to be spunky,
Thanks so much again!

Maybe you could compromise and put gold streaks in the new design?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Hmm, i don't know...I would like her to look more realistic. 
But someone suggested i put a bow in her hair! I thought it sounded cool, so she'll wear it for special occasions.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, a shiny gold bow!
Actually...... (goes into genetics-nerd-mode 
To get the grey colour, Amistad must have the grey gene which means must have been born either bay, chestnut, or black and is getting lighter over time. Or, to get the grey colour, she must be black base with either 1) the cream gene which would make her a smoky black (dark grey) or 2) the champagne gene which would make her a classic champagne (dark grey with a shiny metallic sheen.)
If you want her to keep the green eyes, I would suggest she be a classic champagne, since sometimes they have green eyes.
To get the gold mane, she would have to carry the Flaxen gene, which makes mane/tail hairs blonde. Then, as a part of her paint markings, Amistad would have tiny white spots beneath her mane, invisible unless she has her mane shaved, that give her the black streaks.
And finally, she would have the Tobiano or Tobiano/Sabino gene to give her the piebald markings.
But if Ammy is a clasic champagne tobiano with a flaxen mane and tail, all the charachteristics you currently have on her PLUS the gold streaks are possible.

Thats alot to take in.
So, you're basically saying, that i 'could' keep the gold.
I loved her old design, and i will draw it again one day, Amistad wasn't my orignal equisona y'know?
Sombra was, and before Sombra's name was 'Sombra', it was Saiya. 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes, I'm saying you "could" if you wanted to. 
I never really had an Equisona until I found dA, I had an OC named Glory who was a bay mare and White Cascade, a grey Arabian mare, and Short Circuit, a black Thoroughbred stallion. But that's it.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I never had an equisona 'till i found dA either.
I never really designed characters for myself, i just drew horses at random.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, I did that mostly as well, but I drew Glory a lot. I very rarely coloured anything.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Haha! You're always welcome to draw any of my characters, you should know that by now.
I'd love you to draw her! It'll be so exciting, i can't wait to see it! Watch out though! I'm worried i may have made her design a little too complicated.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
thanks for letting me draw her
P.S. I am making a lineart,The WIP will be in my scraps soon

OMG, yay!
You'll be the first person to do a gift of her in her new design!

She looks gorgeous!!Very beautiful!A little bit like Libertad in gray.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thanks.
She looks like Libertad? Really? If so, it was completely unintentional, i've always loved paints, and from nearly all the pictures i've seen, most of them have markings similar to Libertad.
Why do you think she looks like, Lib?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Because of her markings and her hair colour.I know many paints have colour like her.It's a really beautiful colouring.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thanks.
I don't want people to start thinking i 'copied' ~leadmare .
She's a good friend on dA, and i wouldn't steal anything from her gallery etc. Like i wouldn't steal anything from your gallery either, i'm not an art-thief.
