2019 Guild Color Schemes Project
Hi Mounties!
@Catherine and I were recently using Coolors to add a few secondary hues to the new Ackerly Green palette and I just had an idea, why don’t we all use the Coolors site/app to design and share modern guild color schemes here in the Campfire?!
We may even end up using them in future projects!
Its really simple to use. You just click until you find colors you like, then lock your favorites and keep clicking until you have a five color palette you’re happy with. It will keep finding complimentary hues with every click. And if you’re particularly color savvy you can even input your own hex numbers and it will find colors that work with those! We’ve used it for a lot of projects and even designed the new AG palette with it.
Can’t wait to see what you come up with!

I may have used that exact site (in conjunction with another to translate color to embroidery floss numbers) when making Rev’s cross stitch gift.

Alright, this will be extremely traditional but the first think that stroke me when I saw Ebenguard was Heide’s Tower of Flame, then the Aniva Lighthouse.
Now, this color scheme doesn’t deviate much from the original logo but I wanted to reflect the sort of sandswept isle ambiance, somewhere on the borders between the night and day.
So there are three variations:
Base:

Night/Seashore:

Day:

Well. That’s it

Really love that Night colour scheme for Ebenguard!
I was playing with the colours a little, and put together a few that I kinda liked, ish, for Bali:
Meh, none of them really feel “new” to me, just the same as the old theme with some additions.

What a weird and relatively colorless topic this is.
I guess just Ebenguard gets a fun, updated color scheme?
-
I didn’t have working internet til last night and I was playing catchup with admin stuff, but I am gonna check this out today!

This is what I came up for Gossmere!
OR
I feel like the second palate has a more vintage feel and warmer colors overall, so I’ve headcannoned that one as “Mer Gost”.
(FYI, I’m a tetrachromat, and apparently that makes me naturally averse to the color yellow)

I had to give this a lot of thought
because I’m a huge perfectionist…so here what I ended up with for Flinter.I looked at color recommendations for offices because I figure like, communal spaces in the guild halls would maybe be colored guild colors? So I went with a yellow for positivity/creativity, then the greens (which sort of hold over from the original color scheme) are supposed to be good for places where you work long hours. Brown was a nice neutral that I think goes with the yellow and the greens, and then I think the purple is a bit…I dunno…modern maybe? And it looks nice with the brown…

Wow, been away for only a while
@Nimueh – thanks for your kind words
I actually like the second idea most but probably due to my skewed sense of aesthetics I love the forest vibe from the first, it kinda feels… inviting?@Augustus_Octavian regarding the latter, it reminds me of all the 70s interior design aesthetics. I like the first one though, has some… Fragonard’s The Swing vibes. Very rococo in a good way. And I hate yellow (sorry if this sounded insensitive, didn’t mean to be it like that :))
@Tinker – that looks amazing actually. Looks less forced than mine and I can actually imagine a guildhall in this set!
@Deyavi uh-huh. Now let’s try to blend every idea for Eben
@Revenir both. Want. Both
@annabloem Very basic doesn’t mean anything. It’s really good with the floral vibe it bears. Looks like shimmering moss!

Do your’s come in a different direction from the rest of ours’ because you’re in Australia?

Nah, technophobe here and couldn’t figure out how to work it so I downloaded the app and screenshotted it

Tried my hand at Gossmere. I wanted the colors to be natural and earthy, so I shot for jewel tones and pastels!

That is not only beautiful, but also looks like the most amazing ice cream assortment.

These are amazing! The darker tones are especially stunning
great finds~ -
Anything with maroon (bar Maroon 5) gets my immediate seal of approval – I love the combo!
@OracleSage please tell me you’re gonna patent this combination as ice cream. The base would taste interesting with these combinations

I don’t see any for Thornmouth, and please forgive the post necromancy I’m doing by resurrecting this, but this is the one I came up with for Thornmouth.
I liked the first three colors that came up, I can’t really say why. The black and yellow though I can explain, the black represents darkness and ignorance while the yellow represents light and enlightenment.
-
Necromance away @shinjidai! All threads can be commented on no matter how old. It’s great that people are still engaging and adding to these threads!
-
I love this combo! Such a good depiction of the warmer side of the Mindflame that we don’t often think of.

As an avid maker, this thread is giving me FEELS

I really like this combo. The last two colors remind me of charcoal in the remains of a fire when Gossmerim move from place to place.
-
And there’s still that hint of green in the darker one

I actually like the second idea most but probably due to my skewed sense of aesthetics 
But I do really love the more burnt reds/oranges contrasting with the liveliness and freshness of the yellows/greens.
great finds~
