Very nice. Yes, Leo is a problem, but otherwise, looks very good!

Wow Horo! I like this picture! It reminds me X2-The Treat game and You managed to recreate the sensation of open space.

Thank you connor. Yup, that's the Bryce starfield. Make sure you select Custom Field. This shows all the stars down to 6th magnitude. If the camera Y rotation is 0 (looking up as seen from above in the wireframe) and the position is not changed, you get the constellations of the spring equinox. If you draw a line from the front sphere to the upper right corner, you find Taurus, the constellation of the bull. The planet is actually the ground plane and is not curved. I show a bit much of it, if it wouldn't extend so much from the lower left corner, it would look less flat and more plausible. Under some circumstances, the viewer sees curvatore even if there's none. Just because it is expected.

The LORS and the stars look very good. Is the starfield Bryce made? if so that is really good. I am having troubles making a good starfield. The Station is a very cool model, textured and lit really well. Don't know if it was intentional or not but the planet seems to be a little flat (minus your logo, which is very cool by the way). Overall I really like this scene.
