[WIP] A cratery map

[Eowyn Cwper]

Inspiration has been flickering for this personal project and I thought there would be no harm in asking for help. What could I add or change to make it immersive?

Hi

For one, I feel the ground is way over exposed brightness wise. Really over exposed. Take this moon crater picture for example. Start with that. And then with a soft brush with a dark color on half opacity, you can gently paint some shadows for the structures, that would add to the map too.

Brushes are not really part of my workflow as a vector artist, but I'll look into improving the brightness, thanks.

I think XCali's suggestion is a solid one. You could achieve a similar effect using the vector mesh tool.
