Reimagining of theΒ Lost CenturyΒ palette.
Useful for drawing mythical beasts and landscapes.
Using this palette for skin was interesting. Used some of the browns outside of the typical color ramp and the burgundy shade to achieve a nuetral skin tone. - by Emily Lynn

A collection of colours used in early print media; sampled from various examples here: http://oa.letterformarchive.org/
The colours mostly rely on a black/red/orange/white scheme, but I brewed up companion cyan-greens which bridge across the blues/yellows.
For best results, use in big, punchy blocks.
