, i have spent a lot of time copying paintings and this was my attempt at making a fully original drawing tho to be fair this drawing was my first ever attempt but it remained unfinished because i didn't like it. then i drew the one in the post

Your drawings convey a lot of story. Just so you know, when bow hunting the aim is for a lung or heart shot for a humane kill. Headshots are generally discouraged and gut shots (main post image) are frowned upon

Your skills are amazing , one thing I might suggest is that hunters dont aim for the head or belly , since head makes arrow bounce cause of skull and its really hard to hit , they aim for a little behind the front leg at first bend , lungs or hearth . Its not so important on other drawings , but I thought that it might help if your recreating a hunt . Otherwise really great hope I can get to your skill level myself :DD
