Hugs to all my friends at Hive and in this wonderful community. I've drawn a new hand-drawn illustration of an instrument from the game. How about we go over it together and tell you a little about it? It's the cheap conga drum. You can find this instrument identified in the game with the number i71. This particular deck containing the instrument is one of the first released in the game, so long-time players are sure to be familiar with it or have purchased one.

Congas like the bajara are presumed to be an evolution of the first congas. It's believed they were invented in Africa and then evolved in each country until they reached the modern form we all know. I think the most used model is the Latin American or Cuban conga, since it remained the definitive instrument for various local musical genres and later spread to other regions.
For those who don't know how to play it, it's with the hands, of course, haha. Just kidding, yes, it's played with the hands, but not with the whole hand. It's commonly played with the fingers or the palm of the hand, since those parts generate the best sound, with the upper part creating the rhythm.
They're almost always used in Latin music, but they're also used in the well-known jazz and some pop varieties. If you're wondering, they're made of artificial or hammered wood. This is how they achieve the best sound. But there are others made of metal and carbon fiber.

On top of the deck, there's stretched leather, or some material that imitates leather. Many people believe this is the best material. Up to this point, I've shown you how I traced the design and base of the deck onto the sheet. I've also shown you how I colored most of it. All that's left is to see how I colored the conga line. I want you to see it in the following images.

And that's the congas, friends. There's a lot we could talk about them. And that's why I'd love to continue the conversation in the comments. Tell me if you like the sound or if you've played it yourself. It'll be very interesting to read them. I'll sign off for today, but I'll be back soon with another drawing.
