I love what you've done with the repositioning and I think it would work perfectly. But as has been said, I think that the recoloring of the skin is a bit counterproductive. In addition to my thinking that it doesn't really match the scene, I don't really think it makes sense for him to be pale looking at this point. The guy just had his ass dragged out of a volcano, so I think it makes sense that he look red and pulpy as the movie showed. He hasn't had a chance to heal yet, so his skin would look red and raw since he's been terribly burned just recently. In ROTJ, we were seeing what Vader looks like after spending 25 years in what's essentially a walking hyberbaric chamber, so by then the redness would have gone away and he'd look pale, as he did. I think it's important that during the masking scene, Anakin's face looks like he's just been dragged through the pits of hell, not like he's been in recovery for 25 years.
