Anorectic arthritis elf


This generic fantasy elf female, who has a body of a standardized anorectic mannequin, eyes as blank and face as emotionless as her plastic equivalent, is also shooting wrong. The maker of this picture is to blame of course, since he hasn't used any reference at all.


Mistakes:

  1. Left handedness. As told many times before, not a mistakes if intended, but here, certainly not.
  2. Sideways shooting. The string touches the flank of the archer thus making inefficient shot.
  3. Ridiculous bow. Not as ridiculous as some else, but still a stupid design. What are those glowing green things? And what for as these spikes? Did the maker of this picture intend that this bow could be used as a melee weapon too? Well, that's a bad idea, which can break the bow.
  4. Back quiver. Enough said of this already.
  5. In the same circle, another mistake, not room on the shaft of the arrows for fingers to grasp behind the fletching. Also fletching could be longer.
  6. Very bad posture and stance. Does she have an arthritis on her knees or what? Is this supposed to be a sexy pose? Of course it is, but it fails to be anything else than ridiculous. What's with the length of the legs too? One could argue that this is an elf, but these same boys draw those giraffe legs on human women also. Anyway, a good shot would require much steadier stance.
