Shoelaces are really fun for me, so this character having these kinds of shoes was a blast to do. And I hope I get more prompts for music-related subjects, it's enjoyable being able to draw something I actually have some personal knowledge on (not a whole lot of it, but enough for a few nuanced details).
Thank you~

Thanks so much! It definitely felt like a long time. Hopefully I logged and calculated it correctly, ha ha
