Yeah I’m wondering if they actually changed the color of some of the items like the vest and boots for the final version, or if the color grading just really messed with the colors.
 
Well yes, the lighting is always a problem with trying to get the right color. Also, the costume dept. is adding some wear and tear to the entire costume + accessories. ;)

The boots always looked black to me covered in sand and clay dust

Hi all, I started the Cad Bane builders group on FB a couple weeks ago. please join there if you'd like some more info. I will post my findings here as well.

I discovered the screen used boots and the hose connectors last week. I will attach some pics for reference.

I've been doing a lot of photo scaling to try and establish a scale for the parts. The performace actor is Dorian Kingi and he's 6 foot 4 inches which is 76 inches tall. I found some great reference photos and did some scaling tests.

We have some talented group members working on various screen accurate replica parts, masks, hats, soft patterns, boots, gloves, blasters etc. I have started modelling some of the jacket greeblies and the mask connectors, fittings and other bits.

I was also asked to start drafting a rough CRL (costume guideline) for the 501st Legion, so I will post that info here as well since it's easier to update that and some people may find it easier to look in one place for the information rather than individual posts.

Enjoy and let's share!
