About This Tool

This tool derives color relationships from a base color to produce ready-to-use palettes for Procreate workflows. It outputs multiple palette types (analogous, complementary, triadic) and supports lightness and saturation adjustments for refined results. The system preserves hex RGB and converts to HSL to apply color theory rules in a deterministic manner, enabling predictable palette behavior across projects. It also offers a preview and an export pack that can be imported into Procreate as swatches or bundled palettes. The primary beneficiaries are digital artists, illustrators, game artists, and branding professionals who require rapid, repeatable color strategy generation with export compatibility. A key differentiator is the explicit Procreate export pathway and the ability to produce multiple palette styles from one base color with accessible contrast checks when enabled. Core features include input normalization, palette derivation, adjustable saturation/lightness, and export data generation for downstream use. Typical use cases include initial palette drafting for character design, game art concepts, branding color exploration, and shading guides for consistent lighting across scenes.

How to Use

Choose method: apply saturation and lightness tweaks, enable contrast checks if needed.
Run calculation: generate palettes and preview data.
Review outputs: inspect color lists and sample previews.

Frequently Asked Questions

Find Quick Answers

What color formats are supported?
The tool accepts hex strings (e.g., #3A7BCF) and RGB inputs (rgb(58,123,207)). Internally, colors are converted to HSL for palette derivation and then back to hex for output.
Can I export palettes for Procreate?
Yes. Generated palettes are provided as Procreate-ready swatches or swatch bundles, enabling quick import into Procreate without manual re-entry of colors.
How accurate are color harmony rules?
Rules are based on standard color theory (analogous, complementary, triadic). Perceptual differences may vary by display; contrast checks are available to enhance legibility.
Does the tool consider accessibility?
Yes. When enabled, it computes relative luminance and basic contrast scores to flag potential text readability issues within generated palettes.
