Nice clean bow. :)
If I were to be picky, I'd say that nice bulge at the nock would look better (slimmer and a nicer waggle) if the belly followed the waggle of the back)

yes the lower nock could be more pointy. I wanted to make it like that one mary rose bow. nocks are also only carved on one side
