I finally tried using a limited color palette for a character piece

I picked just three colors for a fantasy portrait last week, thinking it would be simple. The result was way more detailed and moody than my usual full-spectrum work, which really surprised me. It forced me to focus on value and texture over just adding more hues. Has anyone else had a project turn out completely different because of a self-imposed rule like that?

Limits just make your work boring and predictable.

The last thing @dakota863 wrote was so predictable, though.
