<(Click me so I can get bigger!) The only official coloring of them, plus Ryuugen. Shiba appears to have light green armor with blue straps, and Kusakage is grey with green straps. Bear in mind, though, that Rando's outfit has been colored differently three times, and that Shiba's design on this picture is already inconsistent with his comic appearance. Kusakage's title is also "the Blue Samurai" so his armor may have been hinted at being blue or green by Yoshi, since the kanji for 'blue' can also mean 'green', even though SHIBA is colored green, instead, which is odd. Shiba also means 'Purple Sword', but this may have not had any tie-in to his armor color. Official Ginga colorings have been notoriously inconsistent, with Fuuga, who is definitely a golden brown and has the title 'the Golden Wolf', is colored blue. There have been many similar cases in coloring errors, so since this is the only existing one of the other ganin plus Ryuugen, it should be up to the reader's decision, since it looks more like random color schemes were made instead of any actual decision

I'm very much sure that something happened and the two got their armor colors swapped - either by accident, or carelessness.
Because as you'll see in our "name and title translations" thread, Shiba's kanji (紫刃) means "Purple Blade" which would stand to reason he should have the more lavender-ish shade of armor, while Kusakage's nickname would defer him to the more blue-green one.
On a more hilarious note, I'm pretty sure those bright colors on Ryuugen aren't quite suited for a ninja... LOL.

I think his sleeves are actually an error (though we all know I'm not great with colors, so correct me if I'm wrong), but they look almost flesh colored and match the same color used on his face.

LOL, no, I think you're right! I just noticed they're the same color as his neck and face. CYBORG!!
