Paints: A Colour Based Breed?

[Hound]

Just wondering if Paints are a colour based breed on VHR. What I mean is... I know that Golden American Saddlebreds will be born from two Saddlebreds if the foal is born Palomino. But if you breed two Quarterhorses, and the foal results in Pinto colouring.. will it be born a Paint. o.0 I hope that made sense. ^^

Paints are not a color based breed on VHR

Can they be born from a Quarterhorse pair though, if they are born Pinto coloured?

I was just checking bloodlines on a Paint lad I picked up a few days ago...

Paints are a colour based breed. All these horses are crap, but I on't have trained stock horses lying around, lol.

Pinto American Quarterhorse Mare x Pinto American Quarterhorse Stallion = Pinto Paint foal

It doesn't work with all stock horses though. I've bred a pinto ACL before.

I know they're not colour based in real life, I own two. I was referring to VHR alone.

I'll try and rephrase what I was getting at, since I know Paints are not entirely colour based. I do quite a bit of outcrossing myself on VHR.

But, apparently, you can also get a Paint from a Quarterhorse x Quarterhorse cross. The Paint colt I bought is from a cross like this. Now, I'm assuming he came out Paint because he was born Pinto in colour. And it looks like his mother was dyed Pinto, since neither her sire or dam sports the colour. Now this proves that it is possible to get a Paint from a QHxQH cross. I'm wondering if a Paint is always going to be the guaranteed result if you were to cross Pinto coloured QHs. Or in that case, any stock type breed?

Thank you Mythara, I was curious if it worked with all stock types.. Or just the Quarterhorse. I'm going to have to test out some different ones, but I shall cross the ACLs off the list.
