Brazilwood test textures and colors.
From left: Brazilwood, Brazilwood (Dark), Brazilwood (Light), Brazilwood + Copper, Brazilwood + Tin, Brazilwood + Alum, and Brazilwood + Iron.
This was more of a Renaissance pigment as it was brought back from the Americas by the Portuguese, but whatever. It was very popular in the 15th and 16th centuries so I'm including it. I can't be 100% historically accurate anyway, and look at all the pretty colors you can make with it!
I'm a getting a rhythm down. The rest will go pretty fast as long as I'm not just making up the colors. I will be doing that for some.
