It was really a lot of fiddling to get it blended then I used the combined RGB stars as a star replacement as all the stars went a funny purple/red colour. I really wonder if it was worth the effort as the Ha,OIII,OIII combination from last year was so similar except for the stars. Interesting exercise though.
Ha and Sii go in red alright but you shouldn't use Ha in the Lum or very sparingly.Blend all your Ha + Sii with your RGB red channel. I'd also mix 20% of Ha in the blue (h beta) with a lot of Oiii to blend with your RGB blue, then some more Oiii blended with the RGB green channel as well. That should get you close to a nice RGB pic with some punch to it. At the moment the Ha Lum levels everything else. Like the pink salmon effect.
