After messing around I managed to change the sky color on Pasaana to green. I could also go for a deeper cyan, maybe blue, but other colors would just create too many artifacts. After some fine-tuning the resulting grade looked great to me, although it would require fixing the lightsaber color in a few shots. However, I don’t really feel confident in using it. It feels like not enough and also cheap reusing the same gimmick as Onderon by recoloring something already there. It kinda makes me wanna work on my tropical Pasaana idea, but I know right now I don’t have the motivation to dive head-deep back into the editing room again, and even before didn’t have the will to learn all the CGI shenanigans it would take to add palm trees.

Btw I redid all the purple for Onderon in a different program with better color grading tools, and it looks fantastic in most shots. Alas there are still many others where it’s too yellow to recolor properly. Not sure what to do about those.
