Yes, a nice one indeed. If I may give a comment: what I miss is a 
suggestion of atmosphere. There is the exhaust of the mother ship and 
there is a zeppelin, but the planet seems strangely bare of air. To 
remain simple, a bit of ground fog would already help a lot; if you feel 
ready for the challenge, a (thin) media would be great. It would give 
that atmospheric haze with dimmer horizons which would also give depth 
to the landscape.

Happy New Year!
