SkellingtonJack, I don’t want you to end up being disappointed unnecessarily, remember that the aim of this project is not to recreate the colour grading of previous home releases like the Laserdisc that has a very distinctive blanket reddish look but to the detriment of the blues, but to actually bring back the blues by removing all the blanket yellow tint on the blu-ray.
V1 was probably missing some warmth though, just removing all the blanket yellow tint wasn’t enough, so with V2 i’ve adjusted the settings to add that warmth back. The previous V2 screencaps were a little too saturated, I got carried away and when I came back after a 2 hour break and had a look at my settings I could see that i’d gone overboard. That’s why its important to take breaks when regrading and reaccess so you don’t go too far down the rabbit hole. Here are screencap comparisons using the final V2 settings:
