instruments I like + native animal. I love the coloring/effects I got. P.S. I did the best I could to research the instrument & hand positioning, but its a bit off X(

She's that red panda girl again (from the ID thingy) playing whats called an "erhu" a chinese/mongolian string instrument. I love the sound of an Erhu, it can sound sad, like mourning in a vast field beneath a grey sky. Then it can be prancing and delightful, like horses frolicking.

Here's a YouTube performance of one (Best I could find, its a hard instrument to record right because of its high/nasal-ish sound) Plus it has the "sad" and then the "perky" types it can play :

Thank you :) I'm glad I experimented with PS then for the color/Texture...and went with red instead of purple
