The first one works better for me

I could see either one, but agree the first is a bit more so.

Two issues I have are, one, are these standard bolt widths? Not seeing in the listing, but assume 44". Also, the 'closeups' are a bit splotchy. I can deal, especially at the price, but will have to wait to see 'in person.'

If I bite, which is more a general money question rather than this in particular. ;->=

Thanks as always, lad!

I'd go with the first one.

Very nice!

You say these are fabric?

Like the darker shade a bit better.  I might have to go check out things at my local fabric store!

A quick Google Image for the following key words produces so many additional options too:

Northcott Stonehenge

Give it a go.  You’ll be surprised at how many cool fabric prints are out there, such as this one here, which looks like a partially “terraformed” Alien (Martian?) surface:

NOTE - Or you can try a vinyl photography background like this one as your Barsoom playing surface:
