 <description><![CDATA[Murch: I agree it isn't the normal way of having the feathers on in that way when shooting. I have seen it be done though, as some people shooting longbows use the single feather as a plunger to guide the arrow sideways. 

A bigger problem is that she seems to hold the arrow with her thumb, instead of letting it rest on the back of her hand. =^_^= Ah well. Still love the picture though.]]></description>

 <description><![CDATA[I love the art, but it seems that most artists don't get the details about archery right. :-S Besides the part about drawing too far, the feathers of the arrow are on the wrong side. With the single feather on the side of the bow the arrow might not fly true, so you take care that it points away from the bow. Oh well, hardly anyone would notice though. Great picture.]]></description>

 <description><![CDATA[Judging by where the bowstring is attatched to the bow, I would guess that she also has supernatural strength too!!! Great job alltogether nontheless.]]></description>

 <description><![CDATA[My favourite of yours so far (though I am still browsing...). There is such a windy purpose in this, if that makes sense. The fact that her hair is all blowing one way, as well as her clothes pulls our attention in the direction the arrow is going. Even the clouds above add to this feel of everything going the same way. The woman herself looks veryt clear-sighted. She doesn't seem angry, sad or scared, but calm and almost detached. Purposeful, but seemingly without malice or personal feelings about whatever she's doing. I very much like! Great work!]]></description>

 <description><![CDATA[well, if this is an elf, elves are supposed to have SUPERNATURAL fighting abilities, so i guess she could pull it that far and aim it that way.]]></description>

 <description><![CDATA[I am an archer, using an wooden longbow. I do not shoot like that.
I would love to be a practitioner of kyudo (japanese archery). Then I would shoot something like that.
I would also like to be able to use Mongolian bows. Once again, a different style.

There are MANY different ways, all over the world. I remember whining about this when I first saw it in the book, but I like the picture too much so I'm not any longer. As always, the linework is gorgeous.]]></description>
