Andes Summit vs Elephant Tusk

Andes Summit runs blue while Elephant Tusk is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 50.8, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
