They're pretty good and I think they would be popular chromas.

My only critical feedback, is that I think that the left two, pinkish-purple and pale-orange could be made a bit more vibrant to provide some variety rather than them all having soft colors.

I think a lot of people would want a more vivid color in the blue-purple area of the color spectrum, so tweaking the purple to something more like this could be an improvement to the set. https://4.imimg.com/data4/BQ/PB/MY-712104/lake-indigo-carmine-food-colour-500x500.jpg https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Qb8DTowAQNU/maxresdefault.jpg

In my opinion, he one on the far right could be more attractive as a fiery ember palette rather than the current salmon/shrimp orange. http://inphotos.org/files/2009/06/Burning-Embers.jpg https://c1.staticflickr.com/6/5214/5425614100_7441ba8c71_b.jpg

I tried to keep the colours soft because that's what the original Arclight had going for starters, but I see your point quite reasonable. Trouble is, since the colors themselves are very bright, it's hard to be able to produce such deep colors. I would need to actually paint over it by hand, where as I have just used a program that allows me to easily change existing colors to something alternative in terms of similar brightness. Hope that explains it. Also thanks for your honest opinion.

This is the best I could of done...

I think that update above looks great for the orange one. A mix of soft and deep colors in the full set seems like the best option for the sake of variety and broad appeal, so I'd personally mix and match your originals and the tweaked versions above. I definitely think the vivid ember-orange is an improvement.
