Homozygous KP is a major factor on the first one, and the doubled up silver as well.

Also, note the dilutions: nd1/D produces a really interesting desaturated tone compared to D/- and even D/D and nd1/nd1 - even though it's probably not a huge factor in these two, I think it still is contributing to the effect on Dutchess.
