I actually do see a bit of red shifting. Nothing major, but it is there. You have to hunt for the red tones in the shadows to really see them.

The walls certainly shouldn’t be perfectly grey, but just much less green than I’ve seen lately. It should read as grey but have subtle cyan or blue tones depending on the scene, since, as we’ve established, the wall color is different from set to set.

Still, as far as faded prints go, this is in pretty damn good shape regardless of if it’s tech or not. I think it’s a good reference, but as I’ve stated before, there should never be a time when we’re trying to match ONE reference alone, but rather look for what is consistent between references and try to find a natural looking medium between them all.

I don’t think there is such a thing as a BAD reference. There are inaccurate references, but since they are all derived from a common ancestor, every reference we can get our hands on can tell us something about the original colors, even if the reference itself is wildly off. No such thing as too much information to draw from.
