Archery 1

There were a couple of picture sets reblogged of archers.  And then... my brain said, hey, Maxim was learning archery because of Malati.  Aaaand.

I like how it came out. :3

The base idea is that while Malati was more casual on it, Maxim kept up with the archery after she moved out.  And then when he adopted Raleigh, he had even more reason and opportunity.  So while I don't know that, at least until Raleigh's older and starts talking about them, that Maxim would go for any tournaments himself, he's had a fair few years of practice by the 2620's.

I posted a bunch of sketches, but only two looked good enough for me to play with some more. :3  1 of 2
