sfPalettes - Sci-fi movie colour palettes

Not too long ago, on a laptop not that far away...

sfPalettes is a library of colour palettes based on popular (and, perhaps, not so popular) science fiction movies. All colour palettes in this package were created using a number of publically available sources, including screenshots and posters.

sfPalettes was inspired by Kartik Ram's wesanderson package and Chris Hamm's spaceMovie Star Wars-themed package..
