Description Finally a new Zodiac illustration!  This time it's my own star sign, Sagittarius. They are described as bold, adventurous and extroverted. ..I am none of those things XD but this fierce deer girl sure is >:3

Typically, Sagittarius is depicted as a centaur, but I felt like going with something that would fit better in an enchanted forest: a dryad! Since so many people have painted the Zodiac already, i wanted to go for something less typical ^^

As you can probably tell, her outfit was strongly inspired by Sylvanas from WoW, another cool archer :'D

She's meant to be hunting cursed crows, but I think I could have done a better job of showing that the crows are evil, and she's not just hunting them for fun XD

Oh yeah!I like how she turned out!

Nice action pose and flow in the picture. Cool design, very intricate details on her armor and bow. I like the color scheme of purple and green, and a splash of blue, it works well together.
What I miss is a stronger focus light on her, to make her pop just a bit more. Or maybe some light speckles or what you call it, light coming thought the leaf work? Otherwise I like how you did the shading.

By the way, I think the arrow is on the wrong side of the bow. O.O

I still see some small anatomy incorrections here and there, mainly on the deer part, but you're getting very good. I'm so proud of you!
I'm glad I'm a Sagittarius too! ^^ Good work!

Thank yoooou! I got really satisfied with the design ^^ but as you said, the anatomy and how a bow works could have been researched more. I'll try not to be in such a hurry for the next one

Thanks for always being there and cheering me on <3
