I have never yet tried black paper for my space art, but it's about time I do! I do have a couple sheets to try out. Nice job I didn't notice the texture of the paper coming through until I enlarged the image.

Heh, thank you. I didn't originally intend the drawings to be heavily textured, but that was before I knew about specialized colored pencil paper, oil based pencils and colorless blenders.

Actually, I've grown to like the texture.

I can't believe you used coloured pencil and paint. It looks awesome! All of the space drawings on here do, good job.

Thanks I didn't use much paint though -- some white acrylic just for the highlights.
