[TUTORIAL] Pixelart - Harmonized Color Palette

Hey guys,
today I decided to show you some of my knowledge about Pixelart, more specifically, how to make your art a little more attractive and flashy.

This technique has a scientific basis, and more specifically psychological.

In short, you group colors that match, and psychologically your brain interprets this palette in a pleasant way, making you understand it as something beautiful.

So let's start:

(First of all, if you are novice in pixel art, try use less colors and pixels, a little bit of pratice and you be turned in a master. If you are without ideas of what draw, try search for inspirations in everything you see, be like characters, locations, cartoons, etc.)

1. Create your palette using a color transition(notice then i smooth change from red to black passing by a wine purple color):

mix different tones tending to make bridges:

if this step seems difficult, try using Adobe Color, it will automatically make a palette for you:

2. Draw something cool:

3. Paint using the palette:

Thanks for your attention, and please, if you liked it, consider sharing this post, I'd love to create more content like this.

(if I typed something meaningless, please forgive me, as I am not fully fluent in the English language, and sometimes I need to use a translator, which does not always give the correct translation.)
