The atmosphere on this is just awesome. You've done a good job giving it a really cinematic feel. It actually really reminds me of Matt Rhodes and his colouring style and ability to make everything look like a still from some awesome animation.

Plus that ship design is hella cool

Thanks ! I am not familiar with many scifi works from other people but I always try to make things original and fresh. Cinematic feel is my goal as well - I don't like all those overly perfect and sharp renders

Whoa! This looks nice. I love the lighting!

I think a suggestion about the starfield is this: The lighting is from below and the glare from the red sun creeps onscreen as shown by the not-quite-dark space between the stars. In these cases, usually the stars would be very faint or even invisible. In your case, perhaps you would have a wipe from below to above, a mix of invisible and very faint stars to a higher density of lots of faint stars with one or two very bright stars toward the top as the space between stars get darker. Hope that makes sense.

Yeah I know what you mean Even a lightbulb is enough to overcome a typical starfield. However, a darker background was less interesting. I might try that next time though.
Thanks

Imagine the faces of NASA if they caught this on photo along with the moon

I love how you added depth with the fighters at different heights. Great work.

My 3DS makes me do that - I want everything to be more 3D

its okay the blurrness of the stars kind of make it less awesome than it could be in my opinion

Well I wanted to make the stars a bit different but it didn't turn out the way I wanted in the end ... Looks like I will just have to try a different style next time
