Neil Degrasse Tyson Pen Sketch

Just another small sketch where i try out different things. Well the thing here was when you put the pen down you are not allowed to lift the pen up again, until you are done. So that means this whole drawing was done using one long continuous line that connects everything. Its the first time i tried something like this and it was suggested by you guys =) 

The reason i did a portrait of Neil Degrasse Tyson is simple. I really look up to that man i terms of knowledge. If you never heard or read anything this man has done you are missing out. =) I love listening to his work while i draw.
And the second reason is since he is a astrophysicist/cosmologist and this type of drawing reminds me of atoms ( electrons ) flying around - it just made sense to pick him =)

I used a 0,1 pen and yes i did a small shading with graphite pencils after i finished drawing the lines. If i ever will thy something like this again i will used only graphite pencils - because that way i can also play around with the hardness of the lines and smaller mistakes are less visible then whit a pen. =)
