Day/Night Cycle Moon Troubles...

So I’m still trying to finish up the moon, and for the most part I like it, but there are a few issues still present with the poor little guy:

First Up:
The lighting for the moon during the night to morning transition looks really bad imo (or am I overreacting?), but I’m not sure what to do to improve it :frowning:
Suggestions?

edit
Never mind, I’m moving on to something else to work on now. This thread is pretty dead atm anyway lol.
