Yeah enix is spot on there with the night scene, i boosted the colours a bit though tales, they were peeving me a little too.
Update. I've slapped together a graphic representation of what i'm gonna do for the background, but it will be airbrushed. Finished the shaded shadows and highlights, did the teeth and loads of other tweaks to the lines too. I changed the left knee (made the vent actually point the right way) and moved the right knee up a bit to fix perspective errors on the eva itself (see below for elaboration).
I talked to a guy who's really good at drawing and he told me the perspective on the image as a whole is badly flawed (cause i didn't bother making sure it was right), but especially the buildings in relation to the eva. The way i drew them "right" looked like crap compared to the style on these though, so i'm taking artistic license on the perspective, incase anyone picks up on it
