Artist's Comments

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!

Is this watercolor? I really like how this turned out. That gold shimmer effect is very unique. It looks great!

It's copic marker with some washed out gold acrylic paint for the shimmer. The stars are just me flicking a toothbrush covered with white paint at the image.

No, there's just a huge waiting list, and you have to go through a lot of training. So basically, if he heavily pursued it, it still would take like... another ten years at least I think (If I'm correct. I should ask him xD)
