Dainty Dahlia blue?

[ember86]

So I was looking at my Dainty Dahlia other day and I could figure out what color she was supposed to be. My Little Wiki says she's blue, to me she looks kind of grayish green. What are your thoughts?

She's originally a powdery blue.  But I think over the years the fragrance she was originally scented with tints her a little grey.  I've seen some minty blue ones and I've seen some completely grey ones. It happens with lavender lace and daisy sweet too. And sweet suds though less dramatic.

I agree with the above.  There is a member here who has one that is still blue (I saw it in person once--she is so pretty), but every other one I have seen is discolored to some degree or another.

I've never even seen one still blue in person.  Needless to say mine is gray..

Mine is pretty grey, but I always figured it's just because I haven't cleaned her up yet. I guess I'll have to wait and see what she turns out to be once she's been tidied, lol

I would love to see a pic of a minty blue one.

Oh man, if you can ever find a blue Dainty Dahlia you are in some serious luck! Every Dainty I've ever encountered including the one that I own is this boring gray discoloration

I sent a blue Dainty Dahlia to Endocat during Girly Swap this year. I had previously overlooked her and once I had her here I was very surprised at how beautiful her color actually was. Definitely a pony I'd love to own someday.

She's in the 3rd picture down.

I have her twice. One is grey and one is blue. I have photographed them together to show the difference.

I hope you see the photo.  I have not so much experience.

Wow! I mean, I love her as a gray pony, but she looks amazing in her original blue!

There's a G3 with this colour too - hard to tell if she's grey or blue!

I actually see them both as shades of blue, though one is more strongly blue and the other a paler blue. If you stand Snuzzle in there you can see the bluer tinge on Dahlia.

But maybe this is just another example of my eyes being too colour pedantic. I'm often told that shades I see don't "exist" xD.

I can see the slight blue as well. Although I would still class her as grey, even though it's not a pure grey.

I get that too though, I can't tell you how many arguments I've had with people that my towels are purple not black... or that my sheets are a very dark blue and not black. Among other things.

*drools* those blue ones are soooooo gorgeous

Oh wow!  I had no idea she was blue.  i figured she was a lavender colour that faded to grey (or in some unfortunate cases, a nice grey that faded to a dirty brown grey! there are some shockers out there )  The colour on their backcard is a bit hard to pin down--

(I don't have a back card in real life, only pics online)  That minty one is incredible Bianca!
