yeah I would love one too, though I think the bow looks a bit small?

Lovely sculpt:) There is just one thing that I have to comment, he has the arrow on the wrong side of the bow!

I like it! I would personally like to see the bow tilted up a little more, but that is down to taste.
Great job man.

One of your best and most well proportioned yet, M. I like this one alot. My only critiques have already been mentioned--having the bow a bit longer and placing the arrow on the other side of the bow. I was unaware of this also until I posted a mini I had given a bow and arrow to.

Really nice mini, and I do agree of the bow to be a bit longer... the longer the bow the longer he can shoot and that size wouldn't make the arrow to go any far...
and yes I'd also like one if it' s being cast.

This is real good and its great to watch you getting better and better with each sculpt. My only criticism is that the belt looks a little high up. As to the bow, I do not understand what people mean when they say the arrow should be on the other side of the bow?? I went to archery classes a while back and everyone there was shooting same as this guy.

WTF does it matter it is a great sculpt, the day that anyone of the regulars can sculpt half as well then that is the day to critiscise. I actually think it looks right but either way it is a cool model.
