just went out to the pen to look at my white mutant pheasant (rooster) and I can only describe what I saw and how I would paint them. They are a very, very pale gray almost white with a soft rosey tint to them. Base paint with the pale gray (warm tone) and then mist very lightly with a rose pink maybe like snow goose red or such. A Gill or bright red would be too much. A sealer, and then a thin wash of white to bring out the scales. That's about the best I can do.


happy guy
