Description First off, I used a photo reference. So wrap your mind around the fact people in real life do this. The reference is actually pretty easy to find. Just type "foot archery" in google image search. Tada!

Secondly, my character Angel is a marksman with anything, not just the bow, though normally prefers guns. I just happened to love this pose so much I HAD to draw it and who better of my characters than Angel to fit the bill?

Anyways... so she's wearing leather (because I'm also going to use this for Pathfinder). Angel normally likes light colors, but is known to wear black too. If I went with black, though, black leather is not only hard to color, it's also so.. "I'm a generic hero from modern movies" anymore, between the Matrix, and now superhero movies dressing the heroes in black leather just because "latex is tacky". XD Not complaining, just that it's become a bit cliche. It's also too associated with dominatrix for my taste.

Meanwhile, in all irony, BROWN leather would match her skintone and maker her look a touch naked. XD In the end, though, I though... why NOT white leather? And this came. I hope you all like it!

Adds a new feel, don't it? And looks neato.

Being double-jointed, my elbow always slips into a disastrous angle when I try using a bow (it ends up pointing down instead of out, if you know what I mean). As a result, the bowstring turns my inner arm into hamburger. She'll obviously never have THAT problem.

The pose makes me think of Rin, a girl with no arms from the visual novel Katawa Shoujo.

Heh... sounds neat!

Sorry to hear about hamburger arms. :\ But hey! Learned something new about you! XD Makes me curious what kinds of cool stuff you've done from being double-jointed.

I used to be able to do a full lotus position with my legs, but I'm afraid they've become too chunky ... along with the rest of me. XP I can also bend my fingers backward to some extent -- put my palms and fingers flat against each other and then bend my fingers backward a little. Used to completely gross out my wife.

XD! Sweet! LOL... well thanks for sharing, Dan. Heh... I'm reminded of a weird physical side-effect of drawing all the time that wound up making me more flexible than most in a particular way: I could touch the bottums of my feet to each other, lay my knees flat on the ground, and bend forward almost the entire way to the ground. Why? Because I was always sitting indian style and constantly bent over my clipboard drawing things. XD

great reproduction of the pose with your character. I've seen the pick before and normally it has a tag line like"with a natural 20, you can pull off some crazy stuff." or similar. lol So i see her as great ranger or something for pathfinder.

Went with Gunslinger, which can wield a bow just as well, thankfully! So far, she hasn't pulled out her gun yet. But then, bullets are precious in most fantasy settings.

Thanks for the kudos! I appreciate it.
