thanks! i feel the same way about the other entries, theres a lot of different ways to approach a palette and its all valid as it always shows the artists hand/trademark, to put it one way

You have a pretty interesting art style  you did the best you could with the palette (in both pieces), so it looks natural as if you had chosen the palette yourself

i do wonder if i could push it more or if it's something i'll come back to... thanks for the compliment :-)

But high impact is good :)  You did very well on this!

yeah, as it turns out i dont know how to use this palette so this was the best i could manage !

Oh, this one is high impact!
