Sometimes if I have bright stars in my field where some are lookin saturated in my usual 5min RGB exposures, I will take some shorter (usually 2 or 3min) RGB exposures to use just for the star colours.

Yes I add or blend in the colour with a less stretched version of the stars.

I still don't get it 100% everytime but this approach usually gets it looking acceptable
