There was archery courses in my school last semester, but I was so lazy to attend, oh well.. but I'm sure it's fun and interesting, probably better than trying to draw a bow in right proportions xD

Awesome work! I really like the details in this piece and colors How do you like the gold gel pen? I have used the white gel pen on Strathmore colored charcoal paper and it worked quite nice.

Thank you very much, glad you think so
I really like gold and silver gel pens, especially in detailed parts they are very useful and also look good; but they don't appear as they should be when the pic is scanned Never tried white gel pen though.

Hiya ^_^ Very pretty! You should darken the ground near her dress, it would be more realistic. But I love the girl's dress, it is wonderful!!! The detailing is very well done too.

Nicely done. ^^ Love the colours, and the motion, and her outfit is great, too. ^^

Though it would be rather difficult to actually shoot from that stance, particularly because of the way you have the hands gripping the bow. (The stock photo has the proper grip, but you didn't transcend it to your work correctly.) But otherwise it looks great. ^^
