    Very well done! I struggle mightily with simple OCs & globulars, I can never get my stars sized right in relation to their magnitude. It seems like the simplest thing to sketch but it never comes out right for me.

    Excellent job on the faint members 

    Very detailed sketch!  Congrats Tom!
