Activity #64 - Complementary

[tinny]

We haven't had a color challenge in a while, but since both my other comms (iconcolors and your_favourites) had free-for-all color challenges just last week, I thought we could do something slightly different: complementary colors.

Complementary colors are always on opposite sides of the color wheel. Which pairs are considered complementary depends on the color theory used:

- RGB additive/CMY subtractive (on the left (or top)): red–cyan, green–magenta, and blue–yellow.
- RYB colour model (on the right (or bottom)): red–green, yellow–purple, and blue–orange.



(wikipedia, other)


You can work with either model or mix them, and you can make all your icons one combo or mix them. The only rule is:

Two complementary colors should be the main colors in each icon.

Have fun!

Of course this theme has been done in other comms, and I'd like to use this opportunity to link this beautiful inspiration post:

You do, and you're welcome! I do like how the first one turned out, it looks very movie poster like to me.

One of these I might have to watch the show, I created these ones for someone who requested this fandom.

[littlemissnovella]

I love the composition of 1! Great job of the coloring in this set!

[littlemissnovella]

Stunning compositions. My favorites are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 8.

[kingstoken]

Thank you!

[magicrubbish]

Thank you so much. <3

[tinny]

Oh wow, that first one is amazing! I really like the crop and coloring in 5, too, and the sixth one is breathtaking.

[tinny]

Wow, those colors really pop! Gorgeous set! <3

My faves are 1, 3, 8 and 9. Ted Lasso is great for this theme indeed! :D

[kingstoken]

Thank you very much!

[kingstoken]

Great colouring! I really liked the first one, it looks like a travel poster. I also really like the Peter Parker one.

[aurora_amethyst]

Just a couple from me! ^^

[tinny]

Somehow, once I started, I couldn't stop. :D
