I've probably crushed some blacks again, and I'm still using the old source for lack of a better method and the aforementioned technical difficulties, but I'm more interested in getting the colors right at this point rather than the black and white points. Though if anything stands out, feel free to point it out.

Great work! For me this is definitely your best result for for this frame, you've managed to get it much closer to the legacy frame. To my eyes in the skintones on the original the faces look a little pink and pasty and you've managed to make them a touch more burnt sienna(or whatever that colour is) which gives them more of a full bodied likelike feel. To me earlier in the thread your second version was too yellow and the first looked too thin in colour. I'd love to see some more frames especially of faces.
