Desert Canyon Palette
A 9-color arid palette: sand tans, terracotta reds and a burnt shadow tone, with one cactus green accent for a full western-style biome.
Where to use this palette
- Dunes: #f2c078 base, #e09a52 ridge lines — sand shading is mostly ridge placement.
- Rock walls: #a8622f → #8c4a2f with #3b2416 cracks; keep cracks connected.
- The single green accent makes any vegetation instantly focal.
- Highlights #fae3a0 only on sun-facing top edges — desert light is harsh.
