Colour Palettes

One of the most important things to think about when it comes to making our characters compatible, is the colour schemes. After discussions with Ollie, it was decided that he wanted to go down the route of quite metallic, pale like colours for his robot, so I knew straight away that my character needed to work well with this.

 Having the character so blue, may not work as well as i'd like, especially with the majority of the surrounding environment being blue. However, I thought it was a good idea to get a perspective of what it could potentially look like.


Again, a shade of green this vibrant, may not go too well if the colouring so far the robot are much paler, because we want them to be compatible and to look like they are from the same story. However, there is the possibility of having a similar shade, but making it more faded on the whole so it is less intense. 

The colourings above were actully brought about by accident. I accdenlty made the skin tone much more green tinted than I intended to, however I actually really like this one because it is quite murky but not too intense. 

One of the obvious ones I needed to try out was a pale grey to dark grey, because originally this was going to be a similar colour scheme for the robot. Although we don't want them exactly the same, I thought it was necessary to see what it could potentially look like.

What now?

In order to decide on the final colour scheme for this character, I will need to sit down with my pier and observe his colour testings in order to see what will work well together and what wont. I will also be addressing this during the Interim Critique to get some ideas and feedback off others.
