Mike JW Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 Just for a change I fancied doing a galaxy sketch from my exploits with EAA. I like to try out different techniques and objects. This sketch is a mix of white gel pen, white pastel and white crayon and blended with a blending stump. This is a fascinating pair of galaxies. NGC 474 at the top and is a shell galaxy (not that I captured the shells using the EAA technique). Well worth a read about how "shell galaxies " form. Its partner is a spiral with rather thick uneven arms. I was pleased to get a hint or two of the dark dust lane and a hint of a star forming region (right hand side of the galaxy). Doing the sketch has made me look carefully at the screen shot that I did using EAA. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
