I thought to do a separate thread from the one with the discussion about the cape having seams or not (read more here ==> ESB Cape Appears to Have Seams) and to post here my interpretation of the ESB cape and its measurements.
The PNG image is a hi-res image of the cape template and gives an excellent overall view, while the third image is a compilation of ESB stills that were used to achieve the cape's color.
I did the templates using my measuring method to achieve some close values regarding the main parts of the cape, which are the width, the height, the stripe's width and the stripe's distance from the cape's margins, and also the approximated point where the cape is attached to the left outer shoulder stud. This measuring method consist in using an image with a ruler and compare some of the key parts of the suit to re-size the image to match the needed value with the ruler's value; example: if I want an 1:1 image with the left chest plate, I re-size the image until the chest display's width is at 48mm.
The colors are as close as possible to the colors of the ESB stills and screen caps from the TDH Gallery. Other colors that are pretty close are:
Stripe Color-----------Main Color
==========================
Walnut Brown---------Sepia Brown
Medium Brown--------Taupe
Here is a comparison image of the cape template with a front and a back image of the ESB Hero suit. The template was rotated to a certain degree to match with the cape's side or the stripe's line. This degree difference between the front and the back view is because in the front view the cape is fold partially behind the shoulder bell, while in the back view the cape is covering the whole shoulder bell.
Have fun!
