Great sketch/drawing. Better than a picture from a camera any day. So much more effort which gives it character.

I think they have a lot of personality, too. That's why as a 'Purist' i absolutely refuse to re-do my sketches in photoshop the way a lot of Amateurs are doing nowadays. My sketches are observations, not astro art... no glitz, just graphite.

I see mastry in every square mm of this sketch. Amazed.
