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.
These were meant originally to be 2 seperate palettes but they both shared the grey ramp and work well together, I combined them so use however you want, seperate or together. One is RGB and the other is CMY. It was inspired by... youll never guess, pens (and paper). This palette has also inspired like 5 more palettes such as Cloud9 so [STAY TUNED!!!] for the rest of those releases.

The RAL (Ruby, Azure, Lime) Palette is a color palette inspired by the concept of: "What if RGB and CMYK were combined for digital tech and media?" The reason for the name RAL, meaning Ruby, Azure, and Lime, is from red mixing with magenta, blue mixing with cyan, and green mixing with yellow, forming these new colors!

Made by creating monoramps in cmyk (3 lighter shades, 3 darker shades), then using layers of dithering to create the mixed colours. This palette is made to pick colours from and would not be used all at once. Where I found the reference: https://kleinletters.com/Blog/coloring-comics-old-school/
