It might be just these particular histograms. I'm working with GOUT histograms at the moment, and although Desree once said they're "not different enough" (maybe that's what he said, or maybe that they're just not the best source I can't remember) I'm getting better results from a less extreme approach. This could fix the problems the previous histos created. Also taking Ocp's advice, and reducing the effect by about 50% could mix and combine histogram colors and 2004 colors into an overall natural picture. Luke's saber there I didn't repaint, a color replace function at the core of the blade could get it looking bright again. That's how I got Vader's white core back again, but Luke's saber was such another issue.
I like the cover art too
, though with no pleasant surprises at how the other two might look, it's at least nice and uniform if need be redundant.
