I hope it's okay for me to do some threadomancy (please let me know if it's not), but I got this figure on the painting desk now, and yours seems to be the only painted reference online. Luckily it's painted really, really well. The pattern on the snake body is excellent.
I put the figure together this afternoon, and it's very pretty and I'm rather looking forward to painting it. While putting the figure together I noticed some things though (apparently she's left-handed, but wears a wrist guard (inner and outer) on her left arm. I watched a video in shooting an ancient greek composite bow, and the guy in the video didn't wear a wrist guard either, so I guess it's not a problem with that sort of bow), and I wondered what you thought of them when working with the figure. My main concern is that with this pose it's impossible to fit a senew to the bow. Did you consider adding one to the bow and ran into the same problem? I tried some dry-fitting, but couldn't work out a way to do that without her head being in the way.
Anyway, just something I noticed from putting the figure together and I was wondering what the only other person who posted about this figure thought about it. Great job on the figure!

Hi,
Thanks for the kind words.
I didn't think of the wrist guard at all. I was planning on doing the cord at the very end, and when all complete I did see that it couldn't fit. I thought for a few seconds about repositioning the arm. But at the end of the build I guess I wanted to move on more than having a cord in place, so just left it off.
