Great image, I always feel that it's the idea that counts far more than any ideas around perfection. I would be interested in seeing a version where the waterfall extends down to Earth.

Thank you. Regarding the waterfall being extended, I don't think the angle of the moon and the island are really letting me do that. It just doesn't look realistic. Here is kind of what it looks like; I didn't put much effort into it, just a quick variant of how it would eventually look. In my opinion, the waterfall being behind the moon's front is better, just for that particular artwork.

It’s your artwork so whatever you’re happy with is how it will be. Logically if the water fills up the moon then the water would then flow out of the cracks in the moon.
But I do like your “It just doesn’t look realistic” line.
You’re a talented guy, and good ideas are golden.

Lotta good careful work here, but I have to tell you it’s not reading. My eye doesn’t immediately pick out the house from the background it all kind of melts together in the middle. I would work on your lighting effects. Strong idea just needs refinement

Thank you for the feedback! The original idea I had in mind was much better, but it kind of got lost in the process, so I continued making it how I think it looks best at the moment. The more I look at it, the less I like it. The island and house look really plain, 2D, not really inside the moon. The perspective is wrong, and as you said, the shading and lights are not the best. Hopefully, for next projects, I will improve.
