wow. another example of a pixel-piece tht is technically briliant and tell the story.
Another ex-violin player here too, feeling this piece. Great as always.
I like the shading of the glasses, very good. The hand at the top middle seems to be "cut off", there isn't an arm attached to it, if the texture was smoothed out more, then it wouldn't matter.
Sorry if I am being more "picky" than other people, but I'm sure you want some feedback which includes some critisism!
I love this, and it's so true. My roommate teaches kids ice skating and most of them are forced into it because their parents are filthy rich and have nothing better to do than terrorize their children into becoming champions of something. Mostly because the parents were never able to accomplish anything in their own lifetime. It's sad because they made the kids so nervous by arguing at the last competition that all the kids ended up failing miserably. Just goes to show you that you can't force a lifestyle. It has to come from within.
Dark and sinister, yet wonderful.
