The sketch is great! Since Shiro is traditionally dressed in purple, black, and white, I think a purple and yellow color scheme would work. If you want to do analogous pastel teal, pastel skyblue, and pastel purple work well.
I believe it became popular in 1928( when it first came out) and it's still used today by orchestras. Hope that helped!
The answer sounds like D. Capturing an accurate representation of an historical figure. Hope I helped you out :)
