Welcome to Cross Painted Pets! Ever since the introduction of customisation, a whole new world pf possibilities has opened up. This is a guide which will endeavor to show you what different combinations of colours and paint brush clothes actually look like in order to assist you with your own painting choices.
What are Cross Painted Pets?
Cross Painted pets, also commonly known as "Double Painted Pets" are pets that have been painted with at least two different paint brushes and still retain the clothing of one of the colours.
How do you get a cross painted pet you ask?
1.
So you want a cross painted pet? Well you've come to the right place! The first thing you should do is try to grab a pet and try and decide what paint brushes you actually want to combine, and this guide is here to help you! Browse around, or take a peek at pet colours and their clothes here or here.
However, if the image isn't shown here, and your worried about what it will look like, your can try manipulating images yourself in microsoft paint, even just to give you a rudimentary idea.
2.
The second step is to paint your pet at the rainbowpool in the main shops with a colour that will give it clothes. Don't paint the final base colour first! That would be a big mistake and a waste of money.
Once painted, if you visit the customisation application, you will be able to see your brand new paint brush clothes that you have gained through painting your pet! And the best thing is, that they're yours to keep forever! Even if your pet changes species, the clothes will stay in your closet waiting to be worn again.

3. Now you are ready to paint your pet with the final colour you want it to be, the colour that will be wearing the clothes from the previous painting! Don't worry about removing the clothes or anything, they won't disappear on you :)
Choose carefully what you want the final colour to be, but it can be absolutely anything! Even a colour that might give you more clothes works. When you finally paint your pet, they will then be able to wear the clothes from its first coat of paint! Taada, you are now the proud owner of a cross painted pet! Congratulations :)

Frequently Asked Questions!
Will my clothes disappear if my pet changes species?
Once you have recieved a set of Paint Brush clothes, they are yours forever to keep! This includes clothes gained through the lab ray and morphing potions.
Even if your pet changes species, the clothes will stay in your closet until you can use them again!
If I have two pets of the same species, can I put say my desert kougra's clothes on my royal kougra?
If you have more than one pet of the same species, they can swap and mix n match clothes to your heart's content! But there are no doubles of the same item unless you paint a second pet the same colour.
Could I put, say my desert scorchio's clothes on a lupe?
Paint brush clothes are species specific- If you have a Desert Scorchio, only other scorchios will be able to wear those clothes.
Why can't my unconverted pteri wear clothes?! What happens if I repaint it?
Unconverted pets cannot wear clothes other than backgrounds or trinkets.
If you repainted an unconverted pet, they will turn into a new look pet.
I tried putting clothes on my pet, but it doesn't work! Why can't my pet wear clothes?!
If your pet isn't an unconverted pet, then odds are it is
maraquan, mutant, baby or a fruit/vegetable pet, which unfortunately means it cannot wear clothes other than backgrounds or trinkets, with the notable exception of a maraquan mynci.
However, TNT have stated in an editorial that they plan on making clothes specifically for these colours, so rejoice! Your pets time will come :3
Can I paint a pet royal (pirate, island...) and sell the clothes or just buy them from someone else instead of painting?
Nope, unfortunately clothes that come from paint brushes cannot be sold, traded or put in your gallery. They have to remain in your closet :/
Can I paint a pet baby, then rainbow, and have a rainbow baby?
Nope! Any paint job completely cancels out a previous paint job. Cross painting refers only to the clothes that are obtained from a previous paint job. No physical qualities from the pet's last paint job will remain, just the clothes!
If I lab zap a Royal Boy, and it changes gender, will I get Royal Girl clothes?
No, this used to be a glitch that made it possible, but it no longer works. You will not get a Royal Girl, you will have a female Royal Boy which is basically the Royal Boy color and Royal Boy clothes- the only change will be the colour of the eyes and your pet will have gained some lovely long eyelashes! Pretty =D
I don't know any more....I've had people tell me it still works, so until I see absolute proof, I can't tell you for sure [If someone knows for sure and did this recently and successfully, drop me a mail!]
Are wings wearable items? If I had a faerie lupe and painted it something else, would I still be able to put the wings on?
Yes and no! The wings that are part of a neopet like in faerie and darigan pets, are a natural extension of their body and so cannot be carried through to a second paint job :(
However, in some paint brushes, the wings are part of a costume and yes, will stay on after a second paint job! The only pet that has this is christmas zafara.
Royal Dilemas!
There has been some confusion regarding Royal pets and their ability to be able to wear the other genders clothes. Some people have said that a royal boy can't wear a royal girls clothes. Well I'm sure everyone will be happy to know that in fact, a royal pet can wear whatever it wants, including the opposite genders clothes if they really wish to! But of course, your pet may feel a little silly if you do force them to do so =D
See? Don't I look beautiful? :D
The Pound and clothes
If you pound a pet and it is wearing ANY clothes, be it neopoint, paint brush or NC mall clothes, it will be automatically be taken off and put back in your closet. So, if you're pound surfing, don't expect to find any pets wearing clothes xD
However, if you transfer a pet, any neopoint clothes it is wearing at the time will go to the new owner. Don't bother trying to send NC mall clothes to a new owner this way though, any NC mall clothes will be taken off and put back in your closet :3 However, with paint brush clothes there can be a few different scenarios.
If you have say, a royal pet, and it has its paint brush clothes, if its wearing them and you transfer, then yes, the clothes will go with it. However, if you have a cross painted pet, so say a royal pet wearing desert clothes, if you try to transfer, those paint brush clothes not belonging to the pets current colour will be left behind. So using the prior example, the desert clothes that the royal pet was wearing would not go to the new owner :/ But, I think that when you transfer, only the paint brush clothes that the pet is wearing at the time will be moved. So if you want a new owner to have a full set of clothes, makes sure the pet is wearing the full set before transferring!
Essentially, only the paint brush clothes belonging to the pets colour will be able to be moved in a transfer.
