Dan Dos Santos' Palette Updated

Alien in the Family by Dan Dos Santos
While talking with Dan Dos Santos at Illuxcon '10 we discussed the blog and he let me know that he has since changed up his palette a bit. Instead of revising the old palette I'm going to add the new one. Especially if someone wants to compare the two and to also illustrate how the palette of an artist will change over time. Nothing was as dramatic as the introduction of new colors during the nineteenth century though.
