Stick Art Cleanup/Help Request

I’m in the process of finalizing the stick art for a custom I’m working on. The custom stick is made out of Padauk hardwood, so it’s nice darker red color. It’s being built for a big Melty player, and he requested the following art of Satsuki to be used:

I’ve been working with the art for quite awhile, and came up with quite a few variations but nothing I’m entirely pleased with. If someone could please take my PSD and clean it up, it’d be greatly appreciated.

The only requirements are that Satsuki, the moon, and the kanji stay. Feel free to change the background, clean up the look/style of the text, or add any additional details you think fit. My work in progress PSD is located here:

** Stick completed – thanks for looking **

I think the art is close, but it looks a bit too minimal to me, not quite looking polished enough. If you don’t think there’s anything worth saving, feel free to start with the original image above. Thanks in advance to anyone willing to do this.

I realize the PSD is pretty large, so I’ve embedded a preview. Even if no one is able to update the original PSD, any feedback on improvements that can be made would be greatly appreciated.
