Tutorials/Color palette

A color palette in a architectual building or construction, which allows the artist to choose a "theme" for his build. The color palette consists of a certain selection of blocks that will often appear on a build.

Creating a color palette
When you're creating a color palette, you have to decide what blocks you mainly want to use for the build. There are some things you need to think about, such as the contrast. Let's say two similar colors are next to each other, you might will notice a difference when you're close to it, but when you move further away they might disappears by further distance. This can also imply on the texture itsself.

You also have to look at which blocks fit together in the color palette or when put next to each other and which do not. Means that some blocks could fit in the palette and some could appear out-of-place which you mostly want to avoid.

A color palette consist of multiple blocks, that are usually categorized as:


 * Primary color - The main block used for the build.
 * Secondary color - other main blocks
 * Third and etc...
 * Decoration & Detail - additional blocks
