Louie - The sketch took me about 20 mins to do. There is a lot of staring through the eyepiece and then transposing the details to the sketch book while juggling a torch and pencils. I often find myself noting a few features and then when I go to draw them I second guess myself and I need to go back to the eyepiece to check the detail.
You definitely see more the more you observe an object, and I guess that was one of the drivers behind doing the MOCs. Of course the other thing that helps is aperture. In the past I have "found objects" and pretty well much left it at that, now when I locate objects I like to spend a little time and see what I can "observe".
Rob - cheers for the feedback - look forward to checking out your efforts.
