Colour palette







This is the colour palette for two of the main characters, Daniella and The red man.

I do actually have more sketches of the characters production, however I wanted to post up this first to give the images of what they look like to go with the previous posts, go get a better visualisation.
Picking colours for Daniella proved the most difficult, as I want the characters clothes to really reflect who they are in this, since the reader wont learn much about them initally as none of the character talk about themselves.
I chose predominantly cool colours for her, complementing the overall colour cool colour scheme I was aiming for the narrative to have; she does slightly blend with the area, making her fit into it almost too well. However the browns and purples in her colour scheme distinguishes her from it.

Initially I wanted the protagoist to have warmer colours, but as I progressed with her design I felt it would have made her seem too childish or just unfitting for her personality.
She dislikes relying on others and is by no means willing to tell anyone anything about herself. I wanted her to be massively self reliant, to the point of possibly turning down help and somewhat distant.
On the other hand because of this I chose the other main character 'The red man' to have the warm colour.  ( Due to the third main character having uniform he almost dissapears into the environment)
His deep red shirt, is what warranted the name 'The red man' - Which is only because I've failed to  give him a name; this actually is working in my favour as I want the reader to know as much as Daniella, so she wont have too much knowlege on the whole situation that the reader is confused by the jargons and also the reader will be deprived of too much information that Daniella wouldnt know.
