The first one (B) all the way for me...it brings the most out immediately to my eyes without overwhelming them like some of the other brighter colors. Good luck!

D!

Then E, F and B. In that order.

whoah, thanks!

I had them up to G but didn't post them all in Flickr. I get crazy when it comes to colours but this was my latest selection...

tesco on Oct 03 '07 at 12:17pm

how do you pick colours, do you have a method or just go off instinct?

valorandvellum on Oct 03 '07 at 12:21pm

This is a totally awesome design!

I really like D & E, though I'd love E better if the colors were maybe rearranged somehow... with the green diamonds, some of the purple monsters are visually pushed into the background.

this is so excellent. Love that you're experimenting with different influences. I'm partial to D myself.

melh696 on Oct 03 '07 at 2:17pm

all great options!
personally i like D, but there are a lot of brown shirts out there.

Thanks for all the feedback everyone, this is cool.

Tesco: I play around with colours a lot - I don't have a set system to pick the colours, so if pushed I would have to say it is intuition. I often try to make a new colour out of one of the existing colours by picking it and then moving a few of the CMYK values around. I use the CMYK sliders a lot, but it can also be helpful to simply go into the colour picker menu (the one that shows up when you double-click the colour).

I often place several colourways next to each other on my screen and sit back and watch in order to see how i respond to them. Some could be more 'cool' or 'warm' than others, some could be more 'creepy' or 'happy' etc.

Also what helps is to save the entire image as a low-res GIF or JPG and play around with the Hue/Saturation sliders in photoshop (Ctrl+U). You won't get an instant good colourway, but if your first colourway is well balanced you will probably get some good 'suggestions' to start from.
