Greek archer miniature


A Greek archer miniature. If anyone cares to know, the helmet type is called a pilos, and it is developed from a wool felt cap commonly in use in ancient Greece.

The bow is of correct recurve type, but it does not curve properly. Inflexibility seems to be one of the most common mistakes.

Also the arrows on the back quiver, they are situated directly vehind the head, from where they are very difficult to get.
