Special shoutouts:
To commemorate people who did not win but went out of the box or improved a bunch with the palette, we've set up two smaller prizes, these being one where you get to request me a skin (or something akin if you have a different idea for a prize that requires as much effort):
Most improved:
◊ P∆n∂∆ ◊ Mother Nature by MildlyPanda
Final score awarded: 30/45 points
Prize goes to MildlyPanda, due to their impressive usage of the palette that showcase skill all of the judges considered far above what they showed prior to the palette challenge. Panda's skin showcased strong use of technique and a concept that wasn't complicated, but interesting enough so it never got boring to look at. A huge congratulations for your achievements this contest. A really well done skin that showcased the palette well.
I also want to mention wildcard_gamer and mourna for showcasing interesting skins I had not expected based on their previous work. Good job to you too!
Unique take on the palette:
feeling sick (dragon's 6 year contest) by duckiez
Final score awarded: 30/45 points
This one goes to duckiez. The palette was created so you could do several easier ramps with it, and so you had access to a skin tone in case you didn't want to venture out into non-human skins. Duckiez subverted my expectations by utilising a genius idea: To use the green alongside some of the skin tones to create a very sick person as a skin. This was a simple idea, but a very well executed and thought out one. All three judges greatly appreciated his efforts in doing so. Congratulations.
Special shout outs goes to HazelOrb, who deserved to win this prize as well, but ultimately had already gotten top 3.
Congratulations to all!

Everyone did so well! Hopefully next time I'll have improved on working with limited pallettes.

'Most improved?' Gee whiz, thanks!~ Although I'll let you in on a little secret... between this and my last skin I've been messing up skins, or just experimenting in general. But I'm glad to know I got something to be proud of. Thanks once again for making this competition!
