What are Ace, Olive, and Rook's eye colors? (King's Pups)

[JamesTCat]

Exactly what it says on the tin. I have a few pics of Ace, Olive and Rook for reference but I don't know their eye colors for reference. Just something innocent and detail intensive.

I'm not sure that Rick actually thought about that to be honest.

According to what I saw in a video of tik tok Shih Tzu’s are among the cutest and cuddliest of canines on the planet. Part of that appeal is no doubt due to their coat and eye color. These dogs come in a delightful array of shade combinations and patterns.

...Except that the pups have NO trace of Shih Tzu in them and even if they did, that still wouldn't really answer the question about the eye colors. In case you are wondering, the pups are a corgi/husky mix. It looks like Bailey is a purebred husky and I doubt Pete decided to mix a ton of different breeds into the dog he turned Joel into.

King is a purebred Pembroke Welsh Corgi. Bailey, according to her character sheet, is a husky mix with both Alaskan Husky and Siberian Husky in her bloodline. Fox is a purebred Alaskan Husky according to his sheet.

What ratio is Bailey's breed if she is mixed then? Is she half and half or does she have more of one breed in her?

[Sir Chestnut]

I've wondered that myself. King, Bailey and Fox all have different shades of blue, so I'd imagine the pups would most likely have some variant of blue as well.

Come to think of it, we don't know the eye colors of Lois, Thomas or Steward either.

[Amazee Dayzee]

Honestly I think that a part of the reason that Rick moved away from drawing the characters with irises is because he wouldn't have to remember what eye color everybody had since he has loads and loads of characters. I don't have any proof though. This is just why that I think he did it.

Walt Kelly, who also had well over a hundred characters in his comic world, once commented that he changed long unused characters when he brought then back for one of two reasons. One was to change the personality. The other was "I sorta forgot what he looked like."

[Amazee Dayzee]

We know that Rick doesn't forget what his characters looked like since he brought back Spo after several years.

[NHWestoN]

This question is settled, right?

[Obbl]

Ace is the only one who's eye color has shown up in the comic. The wiki points to an early drawing of the pups Rick did outside the comic that has eye colors for Rook and Olive, but that's all we got to go on

Ah ha! Then the mystery lingers... Perhaps to be revealed along with many others coming to a head in this current arc.

[Amazee Dayzee]

Maybe one day soon those pictures that have the eye color in them will be considered for their canon eye colors.

Call in the forensics team.

[D-Rock]

It was drawn by Rick, why wouldn’t those colors be canon?

[NHWestoN]

Classically speaking, yup.

[Amazee Dayzee]

Because the way Obbl said "outside the comic" makes me think that it was just a side-project.
