Description
Hey nick! looking at the planets, and comparing their size I seeThis was hand drawn by the way, no compasses or anything, and I used line paper to measure, and some trigonometry to approximate the curvature of the sun
From smallest to largest, in terms of mean diameter
Moon (Mo): .273 Earths
Mercury (Me): .383 Earths
Mars (Ma): .532 Earths
Venus (V): .950 Earths
Earth (E): 1 Earth
Neptune (N): 3.86 Earths
Uranus (U): 3.98 Earths
Saturn (Sa): 9.14 Earths
Jupiter (J): 10.97 Earths
Sun: 109 Earths

the art is so impressive, and I'm amazed that you used math to figure out the relative iszes of everything
it's all so...
wow...

Thanks ^^
I'm rather into astronomy

Astronomy is an awesome subject, don't let anyone tell you otherwise. I love looking at photos of nebulae and stars, they're so beautiful...

Wow, there are so much details o_o
It must have been long to draw it, you're patient XD
This is awesome C:

Whoah . . .
This is by far one of your most impressive works!
Especially since it has such scientific value to it, how everything is to scale!
Thank goodness Nick isn’t to scale though xD
I love how you positioned him there—it’s quite aesthetically pleasing to look at. Nice choice of a position.
And Nick looks great in this one! You’ve given him a more hard edged, and his face is less round than how you drew him before. Which is fine. It actually makes him look more edgy. I don’t know, in a good way. Like, I don’t know. It’s a good thing, that’s all I can say. It looks great!
And his eyes are also great. And hair <3 I like the way the hair forms.
His overall arm anatomy may need a bit of tending to but it’s quite insignificant compared to everything else. I think you did a GREAT job on the scaling—yes, the difference between gassy planets and the rocky planets are HUGE. I also liked the black stuff at the bottom. Everything just ties in.
I think, apart from the science, the most impressive thing about this is largely the arrangement of things. That’s REALLY important in art. It’s just really nice to look at

Thanks for the critique
BLACK STUFF AT THE BOTOM? YOU MEAN THE SUN? dang it... do I have to label that too? I thought it was obvious
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
OH I SEE IT NOW. It is kidnda obvious now. Yeah, I'd suggest it be a tiny bit lighter for the purpose of blac and white limitation.
But hey, really, in the art world, what's important is how it looks. It would't matter if it was a sun or someone's hair or a sea or anything--it just fits in really well there.
And oh yeah, I noticed you added little falres 
P.S. Is it true that today there's like, a large solar flare?
