Description
SONG inspired -------->> [link] ............Open another window and....LISTEN TO & WATCH IT, I COMMAND YOU!!! (plz.
)It's what made me draw this after all.
Violins are such whimsical~ instruments. COMMENTARY/COMPLAINTS:
Drawing a person playing the violin is damn hard, hence why I obviously used reference for the violin and position guidance from the vid.
My strongest emphasis are on the fingers, 
since I was really holding my hands like that on an actual violin...in my mind. YAH, WITH THE PINKY UP! Fingers are rather off, but ah well. After long inspection, the fingers are really irking me now....
Ehhh, I had tilting misalignment issues too. This didn't....quite turn out the way I wanted, but I still like it very much. While I was drawing this I remembered this image. [link]
Always wondered why my bro would always listen to this song.
(No, I don't play FFXIII. I stopped after IX.)
Song's called "Blinded by Light", but well the strings are tugging on my soul, so....Strike it with the freaking violin!
Fun fact: I couldn't decide if I should've left Mr. L at the top part or change it to Luigi. XD;; Had a friend unknowingly pick for me. Aren't you happy?
Drawing: 1hr+
Shading & Color: ~2 hrs & 30 mins.

Purpleclaw: Heh. I can't tell who is Mr. L and who is Luigi. This deviant reminds me of LittleSakis-Aubade's deviant. I can't find the name for hers, but, it's just what happens with this old computer.

Fourth position on the G string? Is that necessary, Luigi? Well, at least the bow is straight but the bow hold... erk x.x

I don't have to know music basics to see that i did a terrible job on posture, and the hands in general too.

Oh this made me laugh! I'm a violinist myself, most of the time we would just continue into a song if one of our bow hairs fall off. But I can also see the chin rest fell off. xD That happened to me one time. xP

Kenta: I've always seen this picture, and I knew who it was made by, but I never knew where you got the inspiration from.
The coolest thing an artist can do is being able to show people WHERE you get inspiration for something from. The song was BEAUTIFUL! Now I want to draw a Final Fantasy pic.....Just Luigi style.
I think you'd get a kick out of it.
