Hi. I have made a new fan art poster here.

The idea is nice, though execution has some drawbacks - the one with most impact is inconsistent lighting - the illumination and shadow on the ships has differences inside the fleet and does not match the shadows on the planet. the planet has heavy clouds, but the Shofixti have bright sharp illumination. Shofixti don't have the orange reflection color one would expect from the planet and the clouds. Shofixti Scout ship looks much bigger than Yehat Terminator, when it should be 4~5 times smaller. I am not an artist and could not make it at least as good as you did, but you know that everyone is a critic!
I hope my input is constructive...

The Yehat Terminators are on 60-90 meters behind the Shofixti Scouts. And I forgot to lighting the image.

While the first poster had no sense, this one is much, much better and completely different. The ships fit into environment perfectly. And it's not spoiled by a huge white text on it. The first poster also has some signature text in the bottom right corner although it's not readable while the second one has nothing like that. These two posters definitely aren't a creation of the same artist. No offense, pal, but I have a reason to believe that you are faking somebody's work.

Eh, no, I'm pretty sure he just pasted the images on to a background with paint or a similar program.

Here is another one. Star Control vs. Star Wars.

Two Kohr-Ah Marauders assaulting Imperial Star Destroyer over planet Coruscant.


Coruscant is also the planet from Star Wars.

i guess this is one of those times where 'no offence' means 'offence'?

Hate to thread jack, but it is on topic. Here's one of my favorite fan art posters, by a guy who recently joined the 6014 team:
