Easy example: the Grand magus ghost NPC on island of ice. If you change the angle you look at him, his color changes. Looking straight on him, he looks white and ghost-ish. From a dragons point of view looking more downwards, he gains a brownish coloration. The building he is in doesn't show at all, which I think is the problem. Looking thru him causes the building to also be transparent, and you see the grounds behind/under him.
Same issue can be seen with a player using the ghost costumes, or with the ghost dragons in fiery rift.
