November 15, 200816 yr Author She looks really nice. it's so odd having the clear across the back, but that's a good thing isn't it? Yes....in the show world its a very good thing :reading: quote from THE STANDARD for opalines Note that the Opalines shall have an area between the top of the wings with no markings and with the bodycolour. This is called the V area. The wing ground colour shall be the same as the body colour.
