Description I decided that since it’s yucky stormy sadness boo boo outside, I’d do an art challenge to pass the time. I’ve wanted to do this particular palette challenge for awhile, but decided to mix it up a bit.

My challenge was as follows:

ONE 5 colour palette
ONE hour
ONE layer
I set my timer and got to work, really enlightens a sense of nostalgia form working in Tegakie so long ago, so naturally I drew an old RP character of mine.

I kind of cheated though, I went a good 15 minutes over my hour limit. Oh well, who cares.

I don’t.

Were the colors already picked out, or did you hand pick them yourself? The palette is gorgeous, and the picture is amazing. I already saw it on tumblr, but I had to leave a nice comment here. XD;

also wtf giant hail, I have never experienced normal hail. It sounds terrifying.

FauxBoy In reply to Mango-Soro [2012-04-21 07:49:25 +0000 UTC]

The palette was a random set of colours I stumbled upon on Tumblr. I wish I had such colour theory!

also, it was /giant/ hail. It was /moderate/ hail. XDD

It was a great pick! I'm a sucker for blues mixed with orange, though.

Haha, I think even tiny hail would freak me out. Initially.

hail is just like hard rain...

Mango-Soro In reply to FauxBoy [2012-04-21 20:15:54 +0000 UTC]

Oh. XD;;

For some reason I thought it would be more like bb pellets. Which I guess still isn't too bad. Anyway, haha, sorry, this has nothing to do with your artwork. I promise I won't go off topic next time.

FauxBoy In reply to Mango-Soro [2012-04-21 20:26:23 +0000 UTC]

well, i mean, it probably wouldn't feel too good to be pelted with ice. but you know, i don't think it'd /kill/ you.

ha ha, it's not even a problem bro. XD

Mango-Soro In reply to FauxBoy [2012-04-21 21:39:28 +0000 UTC]

Oh sure, of course not. I guess I'd rather have hail than tornadoes or volcano eruptions any day (without hesitation, really, there's no guessing involved). But it's like a fear of cockroaches; they really won't do anything to you, but you don't really want them to come near you either.

Thanks man :'D I'm just a chatty kathy, haha.

I used to use Tegakie on an hourly basis, I've had a shit ton of one layer practise even though it's totally butts.

Thank god for photoshop I say. U-U

Non-yay for crappy weather!

I like the colours you chose, they stand out nicely amongst the other colours!
I wonder what she is doing alone outside in such weather.

FauxBoy In reply to Bunnypuma [2012-04-20 23:00:06 +0000 UTC]

I really liked this palette, they are really interesting colours!

And this character isn't much for company anymore, I'm sure I'll post more about her in the future. :>

Sometimes it's quite nice to be for oneself and do nothing
