Description
Since archery poses are so notorious for being misrepresented in art and movies, I decided to spend an afternoon watching men's recurve world champion tournaments before tackling this. One thing that stuck out was how they loosened their wrists after each shot to help the recoil, kind of twirling the bow in the process. The entire flow of that gesture was so elegant I just had to draw it.Well...
I can't really draw arms and hands so I ended up backing myself into a corner...
but it turned out ok =w=

It turned out amazing! I like how your style feels a lot like the original artist's style, as in you just sketch the shapes of the ornaments in clothes and leave it suggested for the mind to complete the details. I also love how you actually used the name of a monk's skill for the deviation xD It's funny how that can actually work for basically all the classes in the game, as if you have perfect balance, your mind will be ready for the battle.

Aw, thank you! I try to use skill names for relevant pieces...but it's getting hard since a lot of them are stuff like "VORPAL THRUST!!1"

HAHAHA indeed! Not all of the skills have poetic names... Imagine a nice piece of art called "Brutal Swing" XD Or, I don't know, Lustrate lol (we always joke about lustrating bodies in our free company lol)
