  I do like the way this has developed and the work you have done with
the store is exceptional. I have only one problem with this image and
it has been mentioned by others as well. The saxaphone is not correctly
modelled and this makes it stick out like a sore thumb. I am including
a small image of a real alto saxophone. The other images of saxophones
that I saw at the site where I ripped of this image show all saxaphones,
be they alto, tenor or what ever have one thing in common and that is
the basic outline and shape of the insturment. The overall sizes change
depending on what type it is but the proportions remain the same
regardless.

  I know it seems to be nitpicking and I know how hard it is to model
difficult shapes like this (remember the trumpet) but there is one
thing that human perseption cannot be fooled by is an object that is
not shaped like it should be. We may not be able to tell why it looks
wrong to us but we know that something is not quite right when we see
something that is incorrectly represented to us.

 Then again artistic license can be a powerful excuse if you care to
invoke it : )
