Drawn for my older brother who has interned at NASA for a couple years now <33 (I also gave him a child's astronaut electric toothbrush, but that's a story in its own xD)

So yeah, he's known he was going to work with space since he was like... seven, so he's am amazing guy to me, as he chose a dream, followed it, and so far, looks like he'll achieve it ^_^

I painted over this with some gold paint, so it gets a reflective "sheen" if you tilt it towards any light.
I tried to take a photo of the effect: [link]

I would have given it a few more coatings of the gold paint, but as you can see, I drew it on marker paper, without the foresight that I was going to paint over it, and the paper, being thin, reacted REALLY poorly to my watery paint xD It looks less crinkled in life... actually, and if you push the mask out a little, it even gets a bit of a "rounded" look because of the water distortion, so I wasn't deeply bothered... it just scans really poorly xD

Anyway, yeah... for my older brother, who I adore <3
Follow your dreams!

Woa, your brother has done a nice job so far, congratulations from my side :O I wish i could remember my dreams from childhood o.0

And the piccu is really great as well, it even looks a bit plastic on just the screen :D The wavy lines on just the helmet make it look a bit like tehre was somewhat of thin clouds or air thingies passing by, very interesting! You did a really good job here :D

He's more of a mission control type of person, but he's contemplated applying to be an astronaut.
