I believe your "little try" worked out very well. This one called out to me from the "newest" page. I like the red/white contrast with the layer of purple/blue in between - and that slight hint of movement.
This is really cool, I like the red against the twilight colors. It reminds me of the "It" movie that is out right now, based on a Stephen King novel. I haven't seen the movie but read the book when I was around 12.
