Mass Effect colour question.

urban_elf

First off, I'm not sure where this post should go, so I put it in GD.

So, my question is... what general colour palette do you think the original Mass Effect has?

I am working on a university project where I need to emulate the art style of Mass Effect, in a small environment I need to create.

Now, I am red-green colour blind, so colour is very hard for me. I have attached 2 images of possible palettes I have come up with, and would like to know peoples opinions whether it fits into ME.

Discuss!

Kind of tough because the game takes place on several worlds some with different atmospheres. Overall when I think of the game the colors blue and white come to mind though as they are used for more f the hard surface objects and environments.

Thanks and yeah, I tend to agree. I am pretty sure my environment will be totally indoors, so a lot of hard surfaces like you mentioned.

Also I find there are a lot of coloured lights in the ME environments, and I would say more oranges and reds more than greens, but I might be remembering/seeing wrong. I do still think blue and white are the overwhelming colours however.

blue --> white ---> black ---> red

There was a lot of bright orange for environment control panels, in game UI, their omni-tools etc.
