I love this piece, it reminds me of Van Gogh's Café Terrace at Night. It could almost be two pieces though: the right side with the shuttered buildings leading up to the foreground stall, and then the left side with a well-lit alleyway stretching to the horizon. But because it's one piece, I would recommend making the blue sky darker and the lights of the right alleyway dimmer, to keep the focus on the foreground. That bright blue pops so beautifully, but it slides the eye and traps it in that corner of the picture. Same for the lights in the alley that maintain the same brightness as the one in the foreground.
My two cents, if you want them. I still think this is one of the most beautiful DeviantArt works I've ever seen, and that it's done in ballpoint pen just blows me away. I seriously congratulate you on your talent and skill.
