The part of it with Ptolmaeus - that's amazing. If you haven't already you should enter that in the contest!

The hint of detail in Copernicus' ejecta is really nice too - almost like the perfect blend of contrasty mountain with those bright rays.

Nice work. You've got a little bit of blue radiating from the light side, but there's some great detail. Keep it up!
