Update

I was able to add a bit more detail and I was able to make one of the creatures.

Final Matte Painting 

I went for a more Icy/Rocky type of planet. I also eliminated a lot of the creatures because they didn't really seem like they served a purpose to the piece and I wanted to focus more on the environment. What I wanted my main focus to be was the blast of light in the center. 

This was the Color Palette I used for this project. There is also some yellow in the creatures eye, but these are my main five colors.

I still have a lot to work on. I tried to block in as much as I could. i still need to add in the characters and finish adding detail. My color palette is at the top of the image. 

These are the creatures that will be in the scene.
