I hope everyone remembers this challenge, recently reminded by olive.

We are going to make a sequel with a twist.

Draw a portrait (it doesn't have to be you, it doesn't have to be human either, but it has to be a head of some sort, so animals, robots, monsters, and anthropomorphic objects do count) on a standard PJ avatar square 64x64px, using only 4 colors of your choosing (you can use a ready-made palette from Lospec or somewhere else), but each one of them has to be used on 10%, 20%, 30%, and 40% of the canvas, respectively.

This is the only change from the previous challenge, but a very important one. So, instead of 25% + 25% + 25% + 25%, we are going with 10% + 20% + 30% + 40%.

We will be using this tool to check if the condition is met, and you can use it too if you do not have any other way. Please make sure of this, especially if you submit on sunday evening, becasue we will most certainly be checking last minute pieces on monday morning, and this will be too late for fixes.

As previously, there will be +/- 1% margin of error allowed for each colour.

And of course you can make as many avatar entries as you wish.
 

Canvas Size - exactly 64x64px.
Colours - exactly 4 (one on 10%, second on 20%, third on 30%, and fourth on 40% of the canvas).
Transparency - no.
Animation - no.



 



The challenge thread will have all the challenge updates. The thread is also a great place to post your WIPs.
