The second image looks great. Because of the angle, it looks like the ship is about to blow out of that dock and go into slipstream at any moment.

Another thing that helps is having 3D software that can handle big textures. For some reason, trueSpace (which I use) can't handle larger than 4k textures (and it barely handles 4k.) So, I can't use high quality textures. It also tends to do weird crap when I back-light a planet mesh. So, I usually wind up making my planets in Gimp or using Nasa imagery and matching up the lighting as best I can.
