Summer is approaching and the temperatures outside finally allow to wear shorts and t-shirts again.
Depict a typical summer-themed scene with the palette below. Eating ice cream, going for a swim or spending some time with friends in the park, it's up to you.
Canvas Size - Unrestricted
Colors - Exactly 4.
Transparency - No.
Animation - No.
The challenge thread will have all the challenge updates. The thread is also a great place to post your WIPs.
I just want to point out that I love you, Mandrill. Trully <3
Even with that damn orange.
Specific parts of the northern hemisphere. I've been wearing shorts for months.
Didn't mean to criticize Mandrill, he's doing great. I like complaining about any challenge with a garish palette.
CGA still have 4 distinct colors
hahahaha, just kidding. It's not that much of an issue as it looks at first glance.
I think I'll have my entry done by the end of the week! :D
'Twas more of a jab at being Northern Hemisphere-centric.
Anyway, I honestly think Mandrill is doing a bang-up job with the challenges.
About the colours: sure,two of them are pretty close, but it's nothing compared to the CGA palettes. And people have made some incredible stuff with CGA - like Stickman's Sexy beast!
The palette itself is okay. Only the orange could be the a little middle-ground for the red and yellow.
I like bad palette challenges..
But remember that anyone is welcome to send challenge suggestions? I might do a couple again, last time they worked out quite well.. but then again I haven't participated in them in ages and might not be the best person to work out what works nowadays...
The challenge is what you can do with it, not what you think is wrong with it.
maybe you should get veto power. more interesting themes and less restrictive/gaudy palettes thanks.
If I were still in charge of challenges, I'd make sure this travesty of a challenge didn't happen :o
And I was just thinking about how hot it is outside!
Let's see if I can get something out of this
Now that's a compliment I take! Thanks, I love you too, man.
