Less than 3 colors?

When I look at my awesome character with 3 coordinating colors in the theme, I can't help but look down on the 2 color people.

What 3+ color combinations work for you?

I'll admit that I'm a costume novice, and I find myself stuck with 2 base colors and metal accents.

I'm very interested in seeing other characters with a minimum 3 colors.

I classify a multiple color scheme as:

3 different colors, not different shades, across a minimum of 3 pieces. Fewer pieces are allowable with more color combinations.

And try not to look like a 5 year old that dressed themselves for the first day of kindergarten.

I'm sure that someone will impress me.

Heh. Although I don't have thing against the subject, the presentation of it does want for something a little less contentious, doesn't it?

You might need some color sense.

There are plenty of mono- and duo- chromatic color schemes that look good.

On the other hand, people interested in some color schemes that go together might want to check out:

when making a 3 color scheme that works..its best in my opinion to pick two colors that go well with each other.. usually a very dark color with a very light color.. and then accent those two colors with either black, white, or gold.

Sometimes I will choose two of my accent colors and pick one color that goes well with it..like The Crown who uses Black and Gold, and accents it with Red.


There ARE two color schemes that work though.. the key to a good 2 color scheme is focusing on textures and patterns rather than the colors. A 2 color scheme can look great if it is implemented in a way that looks clean.. but usually, again, it needs to have one of my three accent colors as one of the choices.

EDIT: I should also add that this is just my personal opinion. And also that Grey is another possible accent color.. I just dont use it much personally..as I feel it lacks the "pizazz" of Black/White/Gold

EDIT EDIT: I should ALSO add that 2 color schemes rarely work well with a tech look. They work best with silver/golden age heroes.

What do we win if we do impress you? A 4th color? Does white and black count? If we do get thicker skin, can we also get thicker hair? I'd like to defend the 5 year old kindergarten children, they don't know the Germans created kindergarten as a form of prison...

Think about it, they get 5 minutes in the yard for recreation, then it's lockdown and naptime!!! Don't make me turn the hose on you Kowalski! You better crawl back to the center mat and put your head down!!!

Finally some of my best friends are 2 color people, don't playa hate!

Wow, I was planning to bring up one of mine to match your challenge only to discover that most of mine only have a single prevailing color (And about a third of those are basically achromatic).

Heh, beauty in simplicity, I suppose.
