Summer Palette Skin Contest!
Welcome to the Summer Palette Skin Contest!
A skin contest with limited colors based on the summer. The colors I'm using is based on the colors of a sunset.There are some rules though. To join simply state something along the lines of "I will be doing this contest!" I will look at skins you have made and chose which of the 2 categories you will be in. After this, you can start making an entry! Before that though, I suggest you read or at least skim through the rules, as if your entry breaks one, It may have to be fixed to be entered. There is very little competition at this time, as only 2 people are participating at this time.
1. Colors You are limited to 17 colors, 3 of which are your own choice to an extent. These colors have the hex codes listed below, and you will also be allowed 3 colors of your own that are skin tones. By skin tones, I mean Human skin tones, and you can only use them for the skin. You can't just use green as one of these 3, and you cannot use them for other things than skin. To make shading easier the colors assigned to come in pairs of light and dark. Note you are not required to use every color
EDIT - You are allowed to add 4 white pixels. But only 4, no more no less
This is an example I made for those who don't understand
2. Submissions Unlike most skin contests I will allow 2 submissions except if you chose to do 2 they cannot be too similar. To submit simply comment you want to submit and a link to the skin. The skin must be made by you and you only. The submission must be new, although I doubt you have one with the exact colors
3. Winners Judging and more info There will be three winners, and custom badges for each of them. People will be listed as a participant when they join the contest, and the 3 best will be winners. I will most likely be the only judge and there will be 3 main criteria!
- Use of colors - How well did you use the colors and follow step 1?
- Originality - How original is your skin?

oooo... I may do 2 entries! :0

Yes but they can't be to similar, and Both of them can't win, for example if you did a boy or if you used the colors differently I'd say that's good enough as a second entry. But if it looks very similar it won't meet the requirements.

Ill join!!!!

ok, although i can't really say off of one skin, i bet you would be skillful.
2
Done! My entry is on my profile. ;)

While it uses some of the colors, the point of the contest is to use only the given colors, the hair and shoes are in colors not provided, and you used some brighter variants than the ones listed. I'm sorry to say but this does not meet the requirements.

1

I have one question are we allowed to shade or is it like a base with no shading?
1
you can shade but you must use the provided colors, I added 2 shades of each of the 7 colors so shadings not as hard, like in other palette contests.
