Could someone tell me exactly color balance and hue saturation works.
I'm scanning something, and it's coming out extremely yellowish for some reason, and I can't seem to fix it no matter how I mess with the hue saturation.
Top is a digital version of the image that's been on the internet.
Bottom is the version I scanned.
Is there any possible way to make the bottom one look like the top color wise? Because my scan is more crisp and clear that the digital version, but the colors are all off.
Here's the PSD.

Edit the color balance a bit. tone down the warm tones, or up the cooler colors a bit.

I'm either doing it wrong, or it's just not possible to fix.
Because getting the skin tone to match on the bottom image makes everything else in the image look drastically different.
The rest of the colors are not that far off, it's just the skin that looks awful because it's so yellow.
Maybe I'll just have to make a mask around the skin areas and selectively edit those parts.
I was just hoping there would be a way that took less effort.

Closest I could get without selecting any individual portion of the image.

Disregard the section under "Clockwise". It goes:
[Original] [Original]
[Scan] [Scan w/ Edits]

And I realize now that the settings are hard as fuck to read, so here they are.

That's much better than anything I was getting. I guess I just need a better understanding of how color palettes work and how exactly the image is effected. I wish artists would just start selling high resolution digital copies already. Save all this effort.
Anyway. Thank you. I appreciate the help.

np. When you go into color balance, tweak the highlights as well. Create a copy of the original to work from, and CTRL+S often. Also, (and this might be a stretch but it's always worth checking out at least once), if you're having a hard time grasping color balance, take the Farnsworth-Munsell and rule out possible color deficiencies in your eyes.

Yeah, that more or less almost got to exactly the same as the digital version. I had to do a slight hue saturation change to the reds, but it's more or less perfect now.
I needed to end up masking the blond girls hair, but that didn't take too long.
All and all it's good now.
Thank you again for the help.
