Bang Bang Shoot Em Up Destiny

Description

Because there were guys in spacesuits on the cover of "Rocket Ship Galileo" (Go figure..) and the book was sitting right next to me and I was bored, so I decided to draw a spaceman. (Because I totally couldn't crack open the book, even though I've been meaning to since I checked it out... four months ago) And then one of my favorite Harry Nilsson songs got stuck in my head... Oddly enough the song is titled "Spaceman" (Like you didn't see that one comeing..)
Title, by the way is the first line of the song.

This is placed under traditional because most of the work was infact pencil work, with the exception of the space back ground. The spaceman, the rocks, the little Saturn like planet are all pencil.
I added the stars and touched up the pencil a little to make it more like the dark expance of space with the white airbrush and lighten/darken tools in my lame photo editer. You can still see alot of the pencil marks where I didn't darken

Awsome! They way you draw those edges and the way you shade is completly amazing. Strange how a song can have that kind of impact. How long did it take to make that?
