egyptian and Ming bows

Excellent! It looks nice. I am curious about bow at picture 22. Its syiahs has very wide nock. Where did you find pattern for this bow? Interesting, almost identically as syiahs of the bow at one serbian frescoe whom i considered as metal parts or stylization. Pls, tell me where did you find inspiration for this bow?
Best regards

your bow looks pretty good maybe making bows is easier than replying e-mails or giving us more details in English? - I assume Yohua gives you a lot of tips and support (?) to make those nice bows.

Look forward to your comments

This bow style is derived from the Chinese Ming Dynasty painting Kaiyuan bow, bow shoot the shape of the front is the first dragon dragon shape.

I never actually saw a picture of such a tenderness when pouring the sinew. It looks as if you did it thread by thread...
