Movies & Color

This is my first time hosting a battle. I really wanted to join one, but they're all full at the moment. So here it goes..

The theme is Movies, but there is a rule. You MUST use the compliment of the primary color of your signature. This means, the two main colors that are apparent in your signature must be your main color and it's compliment. I hope this doesn't confuse anyone.. here is a color chart of compliments if anyone isn't sure of what I mean.

The colors across from or diagonal to each other are the compliment.
So if you are using blue, you must use orange.
Blue - Orange
Yellow - Purple
Red - Green

Here are a few examples:

In this signature I used Blue as my primary color and Orange to compliment it. There is also yellow, gold, brown, white. You are not limited to just two colors, but they must be the main colors in your signature.

In this one I used Blue again and Orange as the compliment.

Now that that is out of the way, the maximum size is 450x250 & the due date is Thursday, February 17th. This will be between 5 people, including myself. Thus the first 4 will be accepted.

Overview:
- Max Size: 450x250 (or 260x410)
- Theme: Movies
- Due Date: 02/17/2011
- Limitation: Color Compliments

All entries are filled, good luck to everyone!

You know what, i'll give it a go :)
This is actually a great idea :)
I have trouble with colouring so this will be great practice :)

Awesome, thanks. I wanted to make it more challenging, plus most people don't consider color compliments when making signatures. It can sometimes make a huge difference. I hope this turns out well and ends up helping some on future works.

Ill enter maam.

Don't colours compliment the colours next to them aswell? And hot-cold contrast? Or do they fall under a different description then "compliment" because I've read that those also work really well together.

By complimentary colors, I mean the color pairs that are “opposite” in hue. There are many colors that can compliment each other, but the term complimentary colors means this. Sorry for the confusion.

Black and white are universal compliments, they compliment almost every color.

I don't disagree with that, but the limitation is to use the given complimentary colors that we learn of in just about ANY art class. I'm all for pushing the rules, but when it comes to a battle I don't want to make it even easier. That's no fun.

Makes sense. I was just making a statement, sorry for the intrusion. :P

me me i want to join! =D
