Enchi opinions

[h00blah]

Yours is a really nice, bright example of Enchis. I've seen Hooblah's and RoseyReps threads and they both have stellar examples of the morph as well. Unfortunately, not all Enchi's can be "The nicest Enchi I've ever seen". I'm looking at the banding and blushing on these guys, and taking into account that they are cell phone pics. I was leaning toward the second one personally because his pattern looks cleaner, with fewer visible spots. Can anyone who voted for #1 tell me why they prefer #1 over #2?

Are you looking for an enchi het ghost? There are a few guidelines that I consider since I've been looking at enchi threads and ads. I like seeing the contrast between the lower yellow half and the bronze / copper tones on the upper half of the side of the body. The higher the yellow the hotter they look. Pattern is another thing, but without nice color, the pattern doesn't do as much for me. Zero dots is cool, but as you can see from the enchi that I posted pics of, I'd sacrifice a few dots to get that insane contrast and glowing orange. Hot color - 95% hot pattern, yet it still blows me away .

If you go to page 2 of that enchi thread that ms doolittle posted, you can see the first enchi doesn't have such a high contrast, but she's got great pattern, nice red blushing on her back, and overall, a nice balance of dark/light colors so she looks gold.

That enchi het pied didn't have a high contrast, but he had some nice bright gold colors and very very very few dots. I think if you count them, there were 3 dots .
