@John Doom: That shot looks fine to me, they're being hit directly in the face by a hot Tatooine sun during what looks like the middle of the day, i'd expect their fleshtones outdoors to reflect that.

As for the green fur, who knows? I remember reading somewhere that the colour of the sources they used to create the master for these releases were a bit iffy with colour shifts often happening in the same shot, which I've personally seen myself many times and what makes there Star Wars so difficult to regrade, and numerous other visual/colour inconsistencies. Perhaps the green fur is one of those things.

Thanks for the answer and keep up the good work! ;)

My pleasure and thank you for your feedback about their fleshtones being too yellow in that screencap, its ended up being very helpful!

The issue that you were noticing there was actually the overall saturation setting being too high rather than there being too much yellow, i'd gotten so used to the high saturation levels of the blu-ray that I wasn't seeing it, that's why its so useful having a fresh set of eyes looking over what you've done. I've reduced the saturation and the fleshtones across the whole film look much better now.

I think Return of the Jedi is now pretty much good to go colourwise. I just need to tweak some of the lightsaber colours. I should very likely have this finished and up by next weekend.
