This sort of thing has been done before. See Inka & Niclas' photobook "The Belt of Venus and the Shadow of the Earth"

OP is more gritty than these photographers and he needs to fully embrace it. I think Inka & Niclas are still stuck in documentary photography type composition and it is not appropriate technique for what they were trying to achieve. I think OP's style is right for this kinda thing but he needs to do a lot of improvements.
