Hi Elliot.
I'm a great admirerer of your style, and your work in general.
This has a "long lense", sixties feeling to it, and the ship seems to be viewed orthographicly. I can't quite figure out whether it's comprised of round discs or what, and it's general direction is slightly difficult to read.
Not bad as such, but I just thought I'd share my thoughts.
I love the spacedust.

Sukhoi: Thanx for your comments. You're right. The fact is that's a rough sketch I decided to push a little further. But I did not any preliminary sketch nor perspective study at all. In result, some details and shapes seem not well defined. This type of confusion can also be found in Berkey's pieces so I felt rather happy with the result 
XIA, Sumaleth, Meaty Ogre, ColdKodiak, The Insane Lemur, Mon, zemotion: Thank you all. It was done in PS7 in about 2.5 hour.
Here are some work steps:
And a dry version:

the fisheye perspective and the light are really well managed..
the only thing that bothers me is the big black circle shape in the background, if the spacestation is lit that way, the planet cannot be black like this, if it's more like a blackhole, maybe some light distortion at the circle edges would help 
ps: jt'ai envoy� un mail recemment, tu l'as recu ? jte renvoie un pm ici

Great stuff man. Did you lay it out in 3D, the geometry is nice.
