Shake It!'s colour palette woe

[ChanceTime]

I'm not talking shit about Shake It! or anything, I just found this funny. Here's a typical colour palette:

Think of how many characters you could draw using this palette. The idea behind a good one is that it's concise and has all necessary colours to provide a consistent, clean look.

...Now let's look at Captain Syrup's palette that's easily viewable from that one piece of promo art.

I mean geez, couldn't combine at least a couple, guys? I didn't count the coin she holds since it's a seperate object. Nonetheless, you'd think those purples could merge a few times, or those many, many reds.

I dunno, man, I'm not a spokesperson for colour composition or anything, but I still somehow think there could've been less... Mess? I guess.

Clearly you don't realise Nintendo had their best man on the job for Syrup's artwork...

Seriously though. I kinda prefer Syrup's newer colour pallette anyways. Her colours in her older art didn't look like they really meshed all that well to me.

Oh yeah, I mean I don't mind her new look at all! I like the purples. But really I think in this case four shades would've sat a little better with me than eight. It's the boots at fault for that, to be precise

Yeah I getcha. I guess when it came to bringing Syrup back and all they just went a bit nuts with the colour scheme and all. Like all "GUIS HOLY HECK LOOKIE WHO WE BROUGHT BACK"

Fuck knows why they even bothered to redesign her boots; the most you see of her is stood behind a shop counter!

...Yeah, I know you see them. Or maybe she's just piloting robot legs, who knows.

We never did see her original legs in the old games..... Maybe its another of her wily tricks to get Wario's money
