Other notes:
Im so happy how I did this pic, i'll let my ego go out a bit for once but I pretty much proved my flamers wrong. Saying like years ago that "i'll never improve".
one of my weaknesses was this here, night shading, but I found a glorious SAI technique to make things easier. It's basically clipping groups and on the shade layers adjusting the Hue/Saturations etc for these shades, I do the general shading first, then in the end add the purple on the shade layers of the pic for the night shades.
