Looks good......but it looks like they could bend alittle more mid limb out and the left limb looks alittle stiffer.

Would like to see a unbraced and front view picture but without them I'd say its bending to much in the inner limbs and
needs more bend mid limb on out.

Looks pretty good, not much to do there
In my opinion only them two parts need some work
But that depends on how the bow looks like when its unbraced, you will know.

Leave it as it is and give him a couple of  hundred shoots and control the tiller then.
