When the sky glows orange at the end of day A curious ninja comes out to play
And as the sun goes down, in a deep red hue A fiercer ninja joins in too
The lack of warmth brings a purple sky And a clever ninja, with a watchful eye
And as the night turns blue in shade A silent ninja draws his blade
But when the city bathe in morning light No more ninjas are left in sight

… And I’m pretty happy with this one. I have to be! I’ve spent too much time on it to allow my crappy self-esteem to ruin this for me! I even spent hours researching stages of twilight to get this sucker right! I had no idea that they have different names...
These are the terms according the source I found:
- Michelangelo’s yellow/orange sky is the earliest of stages and is called sweet light.
- Raphael’s background is apparently civil twilight.
- Donatello is seen during the nautical stage of twilight.
- And Leonardo got the astronomical stage, which is better known by its fancier name "night".
I don't think I've ever put so much thought into a picture before. Every detail, every shadow, and especially the poses have been carefully considered before executed. I wonder if anyone will notice...? Also; I listened to "Tarzan boy" while drawing this. A lot
