Monster coloured

I realised that the black and white interface I have been building is a bit dull for Kindergarten age kids. I decided to make things a bit more interesting with a purple, blotchy skin tone for the monster.

To solve the problem I need to write some code to automate the frame generation process. Once that is written, I will post it on Github.
