I would like to concatenate two figlet outputs (with different colors)

Question

Currently I have this kind of output format:

{ echo "$(figlet buddhi)"; echo "$(figlet lw)"; }

 _               _     _ _     _
| |__  _   _  __| | __| | |__ (_)
| '_ \| | | |/ _` |/ _` | '_ \| |
| |_) | |_| | (_| | (_| | | | | |
|_.__/ \__,_|\__,_|\__,_|_| |_|_|

 _
| |_      __
| \ \ /\ / /
| |\ V  V /
|_| \_/\_/

And I would like to have this output format:

figlet buddhi lw
 _               _     _ _     _   _
| |__  _   _  __| | __| | |__ (_) | |_      __
| '_ \| | | |/ _` |/ _` | '_ \| | | \ \ /\ / /
| |_) | |_| | (_| | (_| | | | | | | |\ V  V /
|_.__/ \__,_|\__,_|\__,_|_| |_|_| |_| \_/\_/

The reason is: I would like to color each name (buddhi, lw) with a different color. But, retain the format of a continuous string, or at maximum space-separated, as above.

Example:

 #COMMANDS CREATED INSIDE /ETC/BASH.BASHRC FILE
 # USING ANSI COLORS
 RED="\e[31m"
 ORANGE="\e[33m"
 BLUE="\e[94m"
 GREEN="\e[92m"
 STOP="\e[0m"


 printf "${GREEN}"
 printf "=================================\n"
 printf "${ORANGE}"
 figlet -f standard "Buddhi"
 printf "${BLUE}"
 figlet -f  small "LW"
 printf "${GREEN}"
 printf "=================================\n"
 printf "${STOP}"

Answer 1

Store the lines of each word in arrays, output both the arrays line by line. As the first line of "Buddhi" seems to be one character shorter, I stored the longest line length of the first word in a variable, and used the %-s format to pad each line.

#! /bin/bash
RED="\e[31m"
ORANGE="\e[33m"
BLUE="\e[94m"
GREEN="\e[92m"
STOP="\e[0m"

mapfile -t left  < <(figlet -f standard "Buddhi")
mapfile -t right < <(figlet -f small    "LW")

maxlength=0
for line in "${left[@]}" ; do
    if (( ${#line} > maxlength )) ; then
        maxlength=${#line}
    fi
done

printf "${GREEN}"
printf "=================================\n"

for ((i=0; i<=${#left[@]}; ++i)) ; do
    printf "${ORANGE}%-${maxlength}s ${GREEN}%s\n" "${left[i]}" "${right[i]}"
done

printf "${GREEN}"
printf "=================================\n"
printf "${STOP}"
