Nice work! I love it. And less stars? Hmmm, not sure I agree, but...try it I guess. Looks good to me.

Very nice! although if you dont mind I would very much like to give some constructive crit.
Just the starfield. Reduce the amount of stars you have by just a little.
other than that I really like it.

Thank you for the constructive criticism. I agree, and many of the stars will thin out on the printed version if this image is used.
In addition, while reducing the amount of stars in just the digital image might be tasteful, and simulate looking up through an atmosphere or even general light pollution, I have found that the closer one is to a star cluster or galactic axis, the more dense a resultant star field becomes. NASA photography (or even amateur long-exposure photography) has brought out some intense and seemingly impossibly dense starfields.
Either way, I think the issue is with the starfield not being irregular / natural enough, hence appearing too dense via distribution, and with that in mind, I have uploaded a new version!
Enjoy and thank you.
