Great sketch Sab and incredible detail on those dark lanes. I reckon what you'd pick up at a dark site would be amazing.
re your question, up until the last few sketches, that's what I have been doing. I have to say that I find getting the shading just right using a scanner or camera a bit frustrating and I don't think my GIMP skills are quite up to it. I've found that scanning the graphite on white ends up with the subtler shades washed out. So I started using a camera, but couldn't get the light even enough. Interestingly the white on black paper seems to scan quite well And I've been so impressed by Alexander's white on black work that I'd like to see what I can get to with it. I think I'll keep experimetning with both methods. I think once I looked at my last posts that I have to clean my scanner - every bit of dust seems to stand out against the black paper.
