The Lospec Palette List is a database of palettes for pixel art.
We include both palettes that originate from old hardware that could only display a few colors, as well as palettes created by pixel artists specifically for making art.
This is my first palette and it is a small 8 colour palette I've made for paper and ink / parchment style designs. To be used for things like old scrolls and maps and to give the feel of old fasioned ink on parchment drawings.
I made it by taking various stock images of old scrolls and maps and condencing the colours down then tweaking them to work with my sprites.
Any comments or suggestions for improvment would be greatly appriciated.
