I’d say a little more transparency and less strong of an effect would be perfect.
Agreed. I also think a bit of debris and viewscteen reflection in the last shot would help a bit as well.
I made adjustments, including to the last shot! The last shot actually always bugged me because the star field and planet seemed to be fixed to the viewscreen and not actually in a 3D environment. So, I replaced the star field and adjusted the planet so that as the camera moves, the environment looks more 3-dimensional.
