you're headed in the right direction, but your workflow is still uniform to the frame, look into tutorials on enhancing nebulosity. I recall an awesome video by a german i think called Gerard? Which results in giving you a method to reduce those stars and bringing out their colours as well as being able to bring the nebulosity forward more (brighter/more contrast) without touching the stars. You workflow is never set or good, there is always something to improve.
I think youre third pic is a different colour profile too, i'm seeing artifacts typical of that. try making sure to convert to srgb before you send online.
