Yah, that's the strange bit, since I basically used SK's face,
your feet, and the "essence" of your idea... As you say, the poses
are recognizable, but on the other hand only so many angles seem
to work for people in ascii art. :-/

Wow. This is really quite good, especially considering the size.
What's she holding anyway?

Hmmm. looks to me like she needs a comma behind the right knee.
YMMV. Wonder if there's a way to work a face into this?
