So is your scanner calibrated to a reference Velvia film target such
as the one below?

Well there's saturated and saturated to the point that all subtle
detail is lost, I suspect that some of your images fall into the later
category. If that's your aim more power to you, they are a great set
of images regardless but I just think that some of your presentation
techniques are letting them down. Using better sharpening techniques
is another area where you really could substantially improve their
appearance.
