One thing, but Obi-Wan’s skin is grey-ish in specific parts in the SC38 duel. There are also the “flashing” blue-ish lights (which look out-of-place) during the entrances of Vader and Obi-Wan respectively in the aforementioned duel.

Yeah, there was no way I’d be able to edit out those flashing blue lights unless if I was doing some frame-by-frame photoshop or something of the sorts. I toyed with the idea, but realized I’d be biting off more than I could chew. I do agree that it looks out of place, but you gotta work with what you got. I know some people edit those particular shots out, but if you’re going to use SC 38 Reimagined, you really need those shots for consistency; Obi-Wan puts up his hood in one of the shots, and the other one is Obi-Wan walking up to his starting posistion in the duel. If you were to cut out the former, Obi-Wan would suddenly have his hood up. If you were to cut out the latter and replace it with his approach in the non-reimagined/original version of the duel, then you would be stuck with the inconsistency of the wall being different behind him in the next shot he’s in.

As for the grey-ish skin, I know what you mean and know what shots you’re referring to. The biggest offenders are when he’s thrown into a wall by Vader, and, subsequently, when he gets up. The shots there were very red, and I’m assuming it’s because FXitinpost wanted to drive home the fact that Vader is winning. Because the shots were very red, that meant having to sacrifice a lot of the redness in Obi-Wan’s skin color. Now, I could end up fixing this by coloring the specific areas where there’s exposed skin, but I’m a novice and still have much to learn. But for now, that’s as good as I’m going to get it.
