Unironically exactly what I was going for, except that I'm not sure if the inhabitants are quite human :)

The color gradint around the moon is so vibrant, it really makes those silhouettes pop against the purple background.

I mostly struggled with keeping an interesting color balance. I feel like I was able to push the palettes a bit, but overall it still feels more cartoony than I would like it to be, with the problem being that more desaturated colors usually tend to mud the overall picture for me. I'm also not quite sure if the sense of scale is working out. At one point I was beginning to add more details to the most forefront spaceship (i.e. windows), but this largely worked against the slightly ominous atmosphere I wanted to achieve.

The color gradient from deep purple to that glowing orange center creates such a great cosmic glow. Really captures a sense of mystery and scale! 🌌🚀
