    What combos are these two?

    I'm submitting to this particular thread now because I'm embarrassed to say I'm a bit stumped about these two. The pairing was Killer Spin (Super Pastel Spider Pinstripe) x Pewter (Cinnamon Pastel).

    The left seems to me to be either a nice Spinner Blast or a dirty Killer Spin. The right really has me stumped. I first thought a Pastel Pinstripe but there is so much fading on the head and black markings, could it be a super?

    What do you guys think?

    Didn't I just see this post on here? Or, did you also ask this question on BLBC and that's where I remember it from?

    If not, I had a really realistic dream about this thread and need to go buy a lottery ticket.

    The one on the left looks almost identical to the hatchling pics of my Spinner Blast (http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s...erBlastF02.jpg). Not sure about the other, but Killer Blast seems like a decent conclusion.

    I think you at least need to give us new pics if you want new answers.

    Fair enough. The female on the right snatched up a crawler rat right after the first picture was taken so I wanted to give her time to digest. Here are a couple of updated pictures of the girl on the right:

    I think the best plan is to hold her back and prove her out!

    Ruling out the long-shot hypo possibility, and I think I see a few black enough black spots on that top one of the new pics I'd discard it anyway.... I'm very hesitantly leaning towards her having the super pastel in her. It would explain the hypo-ish look she has, and she does have a pretty faded head.

    Left is a spinnerblast, and right is a tough one! haha. However, I'm going to call it a super blast .

    If you compare the supers to the non-supers, you can see that the pattern towards the dorsal actually fade completely in the supers, instead of just remain blushed in between the lines. Although your super blast has minimal blushing, you can still tell that it fades out completely towards the top, rather than remaining black outlines with blushing in the center. Sorry if that didn't make sense...
