Values in battle painting rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. Cool tones set the register here - the blues and greens easily outweigh any warm accents. Mid-saturation across the board: the palette has colour character without chromatic excess. The saturated accent, #2F52BB, registers at 11.5% - sparse enough to feel like a deliberate surprise. 35 units of value spread create a palette that is varied but unified - contrast in the service of harmony. High luminosity and cool temperature suggest the plein-air condition: unfiltered daylight and open sky.
