A beautiful background to really set this archer off. Excellent work with her hair and her outfit too.

This is really something special. I love how her strong green outfit contrasts so beautifully with the autumnal colors of the background. And her silver hair looks so elvin on a young looking character... who is probably centuries old. I like her unique bow grip with the pointed finger. So nice when you post as I know it costs you dearly to do so.

Sandy, this is such a cool image and it is so nice to see your amazing art once more. I too love the Lord Of The Rings series and also think the elves are pretty darn cool ;)Hope your feeling alright, let me know

When I saw the notice that you had posted an image, I think my heart skipped a beat, lol. Wonderful to see a new piece of art from you, Sandy! This is breathtakingly beautiful. Who doesn't secretly (or not so secretly) long for Lothlorien? I love Elves, and yours is so much more beautiful than mine. I do relate to that pose, and it is a wonderful one that any experienced archer would instantly recognize. Bravo on this. Brilliant work!

Thank you all for the nice comments and faves.. Wow, so far 6/6! RJS, I am glad that I got it right. I spent some time researching how to properly hold and draw a bow. I was still not 100% sure I got it right.. thanks :) I had a general idea about stance as I tend to play archers in the various MMOs that have captured my attention, but was never sure of the details. Was not easy finding accurate information. I have often used premade poses, but never found them to be quite "on". This one did start with a premade, but I did a lot of tweaking. I am still not totally happy with the "flight", but got tired of messing with it.

Wonderful image with a beautiful, painterly feel and not a trace of Poser feel to it. Her stance is very natural with a full body, not unrealistic thin. Face expression is relaxed but no nonsense determined. The bow is very large, which makes it a longbow that can have a draw weight up to 900 pound! A formidable foe!
