Ivy Colour 2

I added more of the reddish purple which is one of the better looking colours on here - the only problem being that she never wears too much of that colour. I know that obviously in outfit changes for characters they can be very different very often, but I need to keep her recognisable.


I do actually like the lighter colours going on at the bottom, although I'm not sure that the lilac goes with the gold, and in the first iteration there is just a bit too much gold. I feel like the darker body is definitely more effective though - the contrast makes it look ten times better, and less parts of the design look over saturated.

More of the red/plum colour looks good, just not necessarily with her usual purples.

I think that these designs definitely look better, and the reddish colour looks great with the gold, especially the second design where there is a lot more white, making the contrast even better. My only concern now is that it still isn't quite Ivy's colours.

I tried slightly different shades for the last few, but heir contrast wasn't as good and I feel like I would need to do a lot more work if I was to go and completely change the gold to silver.
In the end, I went for more of an Ivy purple, but changed the gold to a slightly more orange shade to complement the added blue. Even though I still love the redder version of this, this design works way better for the character herself, and makes her a lot more recognisable.
