Scanned from the original in 16 bit grayscale, leveled but not graded, lots of detail can be brought out in the shoulder and headdress. This sample was reduced to 2k so I could post it.
I did two scans, one rotated 90 deg., registered, and composited at 50%. That eliminated the matte finish, but softened the edges a bit.
The best filter I found is a bit of edge sharpen. Not doing what I want are unsharp mask or other low level sharpening, because it messes with the shadow grain.
What say you?
