Colour Palette Ideas

I considered a few colour combinations when planning out this comic. I wanted to keep most of them simple, no more than three or four colours to make the work feel more like a traditional print. For palette ideas, I looked at a range of different limited colour illustrations, either traditional prints or mimicking that effect. 

My main source of inspiration was Alba Ballesta González, a Spanish artist who draws their lineart traditionally, but colours the art digitally while still mimicking a traditional style. They even add in a grainy effect, similar to the texture a risograph produces.

Potential colour schemes.

In the end, due to time constraints, I opted to keep the comic to a simple black, white, and magenta/red colour scheme for now. My hopes are to one day revisit the comic and render it in full colour.
