@Braden-Hallett 4 and 7 for me - voted for 4 though

@Braden-Hallett I really like 6, it pops the most for me! That gives him great main character vibes But if you're not sure, you could dim it a tad, somewhere between 5 and 6. The goof thing with a bright blue is that you can affect the color a lot by changing the lighting. So as your book becomes darker, you can change the lighting to dim and darken the colours of everything, including his overalls.

I did not know you could do polls on here! Cool. I voted 3. It just pops more for me.

What kind of environment is she in through most of the book? What season? I like #2 but if she in green grass or forest she probably wouldn't stand out. I like #3 too But if it's autumn she might stand out either.

This doesn’t make ANY sense to me Braden, but I happened to have my glasses off when I saw this post and the one that stood out most was the last one.

I think that the orange (although you say it's not red, I'd say it's pretty close

My standard colour palette is skewed a bit toward red. I think even my yellow is closer to orange

Can you give us a description (keywords) for the character?

I think 'rebellious' would probably be the primary keyword. Maybe 'frantic'. There's is much yelling of 'NO' and stamping of feet. I don't know why I sometimes forget to use those keywords. You'd think I'd have learned by now

Is true! I hadn't thought of that. Maybe I'll try it a tad knocked back.

It's a well-kept secret. Tell no one. Noooooooo oooooone.

Beginning: A filthy utterly cluttered bedroom.
Middle: A strange starry void filled with infinite socks.
End: A clean bedroom.

@Braden-Hallett i like 3

No 3 goes most with rebellious. You could moderate the saturation of it depending on how rebellious she is at different moments of the story.

@Braden-Hallett for frantic and rebellious I would go with either 3 or 6. The more saturated colors provide much more energy!

Very true! glaring searing orange for full tilt?

I remixed my palette, so the orange, though less saturated, is a bit further away from my red now

Thanks everyone for the input! The poll showed overwhelmingly #3 though I kept a spot of the blue.
