Building Alliance - Colour Blockouts and Feedback

My character is supposed to be able to blend in the junkyard environment. To help me with this, I referred to my earlier mind maps I did of Junkyards (which can be found here). Scavenger's Reign is a simple style so I didn't want to over complicate my design by adding lots of different colours and details. To do this, I looked over my mind maps and picked the colours I best felt suited the design. The colours I settled on were different variations of grey (Robot) and brown (waste, the colour of leachate and the colour of most spiders). I did 4 different colour designs and proceeded to get feedback from my friends and teammates.

Response to Feedback

Overall, the feedback shows that 4 was the one they found the most appealing. Using this, I did some more blockouts focussing on making the limbs different colours as suggested by Evie. I used 2 and 4 as the main base for these iterations as they were the most popular.

Feedback

I got feedback on the extra colour blockouts that I did. I changed the limb colours and even the colours of the piping to make it look more junk like. I think the iterations I did were too similar so next time I'll try making them more different so each iteration stands out a bit more. Out of these, 2 was the most popular so I will take this and start adding rust to it as recommended by Nathan. 

Adding Rust

Here is a snippet from my finished character sheet showing the rust.
