HanSolo 1978

I recently discovered this old friend in a moldering pile of ancient artwork. A ball point pen rendering I did back in 8th grade of Han Solo. Ah, the good old days.
I learned to draw and render by trying to copy photos without tracing them. Someone told me when I was quite young that drawing in ball point pen was more difficult because you couldn't erase as you went along, so I adopted it as a tool to try and grow faster. I loved to cross hatch. I learned that from Basil Wolverton.
