My idea for this challenge was to use the Greek Goddess Artemis, who was the Goddess of the moon and of hunting, and put her in kind of steam-punk Victorian gear. I think Victorian and Grecian stuff actually works pretty well together, especially with the hairstyles, so it seemed like a pretty natural marriage.

So this is my steam punk bow for the Goddess Artemis. I really wanted to do a classic bow-and-arrow style one, and not a cross bow, so that was a bit of a challenge because I think a crossbow is a little more typically steam punk. I looked at a bunch of different traditional bows and used the basic structure of a few combined, but the design is my own.

This is the basic color light and composition I'm going to go with for now. The idea is that since she's a Goddess the golden light is actually coming from her skin and lighting the scene, along with the moonlight.
