For posting the image smaller i'd suggest just scaling the image down using a photo editing program.

Regarding the sketching its great but what you might like to do is if you have a photo editing program like photoshop or gimp then i'd suggest trying to make the stars look rounder and maybe a gausian blur to produce that subtle glow from galaxies and show how faint they are.

Great work

I did download GIMP after our conversation on your sketch post and used it to do the inversion. I tried to use it to fix up the stars, but I've got a bit of learning to do with it. Looks like my scope is very badly collimated the way I've done them. Need to put the pencil on the paper a bit straighter. I'll look up gausian blur and how to use it. Many thanks for the tips.
