Values in Leo Steel rest in the mid-range - neither dramatically lit nor steeped in shadow. Warm hues command this palette; Leo Steel favours the reds, oranges, and yellows of firelight and earth. All colours lean toward grey, building depth through value rather than colour punch. At 2.3%, #C08867 carries the palette's sharpest chromatic charge: an accent that earns its place precisely because it is withheld. The value range spans 65 units across the palette, providing the full gamut from deep shadow to near-white and ensuring clear tonal hierarchy. This is palette 2 of Leo Steel's sequence - a single chapter in a chromatic story told across many works.
