Well, judging from the 35mm scan, they are still not fat enough and I don't think that this has much to do with it being a print - making them a bit less blurry may be a good idea though - it's just that when they are too sharp, they start looking digital, so I'm convinced, that some amount of blurring is necessary.
But yeah, that fading effect got all screwed up by the matte choker effect, so I had to let it go - I might still try a different approach.
