trying out an idea for a foliage treatment. it gets around the two color limit by using a different palette for front facing edges. lots of interactions here. there are two back edges, one for left corners and one for right corners, which become a scale pattern or 2u frieze (x).

front edge was something else but might become the same (freer, however). there are two fills, one which is used preferentially toward front edges. in interiors, it's in a 50% fill with another fill tile. total tile count 6 (there are variants here)

the dark right edge, center, really doesn't work haha. there, much better.

this is really excellent, as a pixel artist myself. simple, effective and organic without being too distracting

thank you! i thought the interiors would work but i really wasn't sure where the front edges would land with this spec.
