The blue color is not unusual. Many medieval animals are colored blue, but it's daubed on in such an odd and light-handed way, maybe so it doesn't cover up the lines? or because the painter didn't quite know how to deal with it? Or maybe the blue was running out.I have absolutely the same impressions and questions. The colouring is a bit strange, but this problem also more or less appears on the Twins page (the clothes of the "twin sister"), on the Virgo and Libra pages, and even partially lasts in the quire 13 and some other pages of the VMs. From the one hand, I think, the author didn't want to overlay the initial patterns, from the other hand, he/she obviously had some problems with blue paint.
