Since you are adding lens flares, and considering how SC38 has better-looking visual effects than 99% of ANH, do you plan on editing ANH to improve the visual effects?
I think mostly what I would need to do would be make Luke’s/Anakin’s lightsaber look more modern (like Adywan did), perhaps add burn marks on the walls where blaster fire hit (or ricocheted), and add some particle effects in various spots. I replaced FXitinpost’s non-reimagined footage with Hal’s footage, so I don’t think I’ll have to make the blaster bolts bolder and thicker. I don’t want to have to do more work if I can avoid it.
Though, I’ll definitely need to change the blaster bolts’ look if I decide to include the Rogue One Vader hallway scene in V2.
