Thanks everyone for the replies.
Technically I could use the full space of 272x197 (apart from the 3 columns getting bombed on the left, a bit at the bottom gets bugged as well),
but this was a) just a quick testpiece (took about one and a half hour) and I like negative space.
I liked the horizon suggestion so I put one in and it helps quite a bit, cheers for that.
I also added a bit of a border around the 320x200 area as the C64 has a quite massive border going on in which you can only draw with sprites (due to a bug in the graphics chip) and you can change it's colour. So I took in mind that this border will be grey as well in the finished thing, watched on a c64 or emulator, which results in more breathing space at the top and bottom.
I replaced the old version so you might have to reload to see the new one.
Oh, and both eyes have a highlight, look close.
