This looks good!
If you'd like to hear my tip, I'd like to see this with a little bit longer exposure and of course then a slightly smaller aperture.
Still, well done my friend!

thanks, im getting a few more ND's soon so i can use some slightly longer exposures, im not all in know about Apertures so what exactly would a smaller one do?

A smaller aperture (you used f/5.6) makes it possible to let less light hit the sensor thus allows for longer shutter speeds.
Depending on how much light there is on the scene, the camera and the ND filter(s), you can get 30 seconds or maybe even more with a small aperture (high f-number)
I'm not much of an explainer, but check out this [link] if you want to understand it better
