Beginner-friendly palettes

Simple palettes are easiest to build while you are still learning the painting loop. They also survive expansion better than tiny detail-heavy patterns.

  • - Blue base with white highlights.
  • - Pink base with purple accents.
  • - Black or dark base with neon corner keys.

Progression-friendly palettes

A progression-friendly palette leaves obvious places for future colors. That matters when better paints unlock and you want the design to improve without starting over.

  • - Reserve one row for future rare colors.
  • - Use neutral colors on large areas.
  • - Place new colors as accents before making them the main theme.
