Artist's Comments

So, ~sonatina-in-b-minor got me addicted to this amazing anime called Nodame Cantabile, it's about music and is hilarious! :D It inspired me to listen to a lot more classical.

One of the songs in the anime was Rachmaninov's piano concerto, I realllllyyy liked it... so I looked up a real version, and it's where I got the pose. [link] Though I drew this at school, so this is without reference except my own hands... which is why the fingers are so tiny, I have small weird hands. :XD:

I have no idea if that chord/whatever is actually in the song... I know NOTHING of music :noes:
It was supposed to be high notes, but... I got it backwards, cause I'm smart like that. ^^; Couldn't flip it on paint cause the logo would be messed up, and it looked bad. it took me forever to get the piano keys straight... they're still probably wrong... *failz*

Time: 3 hours tops
0.9 and 0.7 mechanical pencil (I need to bring my real pencils to school >.>;)
Slightly photoshopped, the original still looks better though.
It's on the back of biology homework, that's why words are showing through a little.
No references except my own hands.
....I FAIL AT MUSIC.

Wow, this is amazing, especially w/o refs. Ok, so the last black key is missing, ^^; but even though I've played piano for over ten years I've never been able to draw one! XD How embarrasing...

If you liked Nodame Cantabile, you should try La Corda D'oro, which is another music manga. Personally I like it waaaaaay more than Nodame (of which I read only two volumes), but I haven't finished it, since it seems impossible to find the entire series online or in a bookstore. It's basically about an unmusical student who finds herself entered in a music contest via peculiar circumstances. It's pretty amusing, I think... XD

Anyway, awesome job! =D

Thank you! ^^ Actually... that's cause I thought I was drawing the high keys, which I think ends on a blank white note like that, but... then I realized I was actually drawing the low end... :iconotlplz:

Okays, I shall check it out! Thanks! :D
