It's meant to look a little closer to the original Emperor, who has a green cast to his face under the blue hood. Funnily enough, the preceeding holograms of the Star Destroyer captains are almost full colour...

Ahh, as I said I really haven't watched ESB for a long while. I liked the idea of him being a lot darker under the hood in your third image, the first time I saw ESB the emperor was a 'mystery' figure and so hardly being able to see his face kept him mysterious as you couldn't tell who he was, of course the prequels changed all that...

In my mind I was thinking of something tending towards this colour pallete (very bodgy quick mockup), but if the rest of the holograms are not like this (my memory is a piece of crap these days, along with my concentration) then I am probably way off base.

Nice job on the background plate restoration, I did one a while back but it wasn't as good as yours.
