A recent commission and my second attempt at this figures. I was working to match the illustration in Hordes Primal. She took Silver in Wyrd Miniature's The Rotten Harvest II painting contest, Witches and Warlocks category, October, 2006.

given the position of the arms of the bow relative to the riser, she isn't aiming -- she's just released. Hence also the lack of an arrow on the bow. It could be strung, but shouldn't be to her draw hand.

I just bought Lylyth myself, and in the position the bow should be held according to the anatomy of her arm/wrist (like showed above) it is impossible to string the bow as if she is aiming. I wanted to do this myself, so I looked at it several times and it's really a problem because her head is in the way. So I guess she just fired an arrow. I think it's more of a sculpting problem, since it also looks impossible to attach a string in 'resting position', above or under her hand.

I think you've done a marvelous job of both painting and basing this miniature. I'd easily be giving her top marks of a 9.5-10 ... but for the fact an obvious archer has only the bow while in a clearly aiming/firing posture. Of such things are Golden Demon award winners made ... but again, I find the paint job itself extremely good!
