Hi folks:
Everyone is asking for an RIS palette lately. I decided that just showing the pick boxes wasn't enough, because people want to see the way the colors look on a piece. So I've made a palette sample with all the possible choices for color 1 and color 2.
Although the chestplate palette is the same as most of the pieces, the helmet colors look somewhat different on the armor.
The trickiest item is the leggings, because the colors actually blend somewhat on the piece. Since showing 144 different leggings isn't going to happen, I figure you guys will do this one by common sense. Maybe good to stickie?

True black is too vadery i think.

Added the helmet palette, it's pretty interesting to see how different a given color looks as color 1 or 2.

Yea, some stuff that looks good on the chest, doesnt look so great on the helmet, I picked Dark Grey for the Base of the helm and red for the lesser parts (palette 2) as for leggings, what may be an idea would be to show 1 pair with 2 totally different colours so people can see what colour effects what part. If you want i can do this when i get IG

I'm a little confused isn't that more or less what i did? Or do you mean put the chest and helmets on same screen?

Erm, sorry i wasnt clear
You said the hardest part was the legs, and i agree with that, so i was saying just do 1 picture using totally different colours so the different areas would stand out (ie blue and red) Just an idea but it sometimes helps to have an idea of colours before you make it ive found..

Glad you like that one. Just don't forget that you can combine any two colors, so you could have LA, LC, AL, EL or any other two colors. I didn't show all possible combinations, but i meant to show enough that you could see which parts were affected by which colors and what those parts looked like in those colors.
