A flashy red palette inspired by akira. It was actually designed for a fight game I was going to make but it works really well with science-fiction and space theme.

Alien Microbes

Created by Chicknhawk

This palette was originally used to make this character, but when I put all the colors I was using together, it looked very space-y. I was very inspired by some colors from Meadowvale. Can be used for (but not limited to at all): spaceships, aliens, stars.
