Hey! What an awesome illustration! Just a few small lighting adjustments could help create better contrast between the characters and the background. Always try to establish either a dark-on-light contrast or a light-on-dark contrast. In this case, you could go for a dark-on-light approach by adding more light to the background — both the blue light coming from the kaiju and the orange light coming from the mech. Adding a bit of atmospheric perspective around the legs would also help separate the different planes more clearly. You could also darken the characters slightly more overall to improve the contrast and push the rim lighting brightness a bit further. Hope this helps!
