Illustration for Arkona [link], album Decade of Glory.
There's an illustration for each of the band members.

my facebook: [link]

Alright, before anybody starts with the same complaints as on Arkona's facebook, i want to make clear the following:
Q: "The legs should have been the other way around" A: While it's less probable, it's not impossible to shoot an arrow from that position, especially when you're turning suddenly, and i've tried it. Deal with it B-)
Q: "He looks like Legolas or [character]". A: I don't come up with ideas, i just paint what i'm told to and sometimes people look like other people who play in movies.
Q: "The arrow is not pointing to the deer" A: Buy the album and you'll find another deer which has been cropped from the preview picture.
As for the other small technicalities people keep hunting for, come on, is not like i had time to conduct a research with master archers and see precisely what finger should be holding the string and so on.

In this one I feel like his expression is somewhat unfocused, and his pose seems a little too relaxed for him to be hunting. Then again, maybe you were asked to paint him in a majestic sort of pose, i dunno. The right arm seems longer than the left. Also I'm a little bit confused about the torso, but that could just be me lol.
Let me know if you don't agree =P
Just curious, how much time did you have to make the whole set?
