    One further thing to add along with Gary's comments about the arrow placement (should be on the left) and the grip of the bow in the left hand is that the the arrows depicted in the design have 4 fletchings instead of three. For a long bow or laminated flat bow as the image suggests it is, three fletchings is the norm with the cock feather (index feather) facing away from the bow.

    I hate being pedantic about models but as Hugo appears to be responding positively to the input I thought I'd add my own opinion as an ex archer.

    Lovely looking bust btw!

    I would actually say that longbow draw to lips and nose will be more appropriate, for a number of reasons, like this being a longbow, Jack being a competition shooter (accuracy being main consideration) and helmet that will prevent war bow draw (unless you tilt your neck, which will bust accuracy or move helmet to the side).

    Plus there are references of Mad Jack drawing to lips and nose and archery is a massive habit builder.

    On reflection, I agree, Gaudin, as it appears his bow was probably in the 40 pound draw-weight spectrum, according to weapons specialist Mike Loades. As always, another interesting thread here on PF, with great input.

    Cheers, Alan

    one easy fix would be a second head, bare or perhaps with Glengarry, left arm shield would be easy to do also...will certainly buy one.
