Compound Bow Pendant

myminifactory

I've always been passionate about archery, and it's been a constant frustration that I never had the time to pursue it seriously. But my interest remains strong, so as a tribute to the world of archery, here's a pendant for the archer in your life. It features a compound bow with an arrow securely nocked and ready to fire. I know it won't hang perfectly straight, but perfection isn't always necessary, and my attention to detail wouldn't allow me to draw a bow incorrectly just to achieve symmetry. Now all you experienced archers out there are probably pointing out one or both of the following flaws: 1) the strings aren't properly strung, and/or 2) that's not an arrow, it's a harpoon! Well, 1) I'm an artist, not an expert marksman, and since this pendant isn't actually designed to fire the arrow, technical accuracy doesn't really matter. And 2) if I made the arrow the correct width, it would be as thick as the bow strings, so let's focus on the big picture. I have a nagging feeling that this design will need to be printed with an STR or high-resolution printer. I'm not entirely sure why, but something tells me it's essential for achieving the desired level of detail.
