That's one big scissors... For me it's hard to tell with the angle the photo was taken from, but if I had to say I'd say the limb on the right is much stiffer just past the fade. And both limbs need to removal on the middle third....
But don't take my word, wait until others speak up.
Will you give us a full draw pic. It is hard to tell tiller from just a braced profile. It looks to me that you have too much bend right off the fades but very little along each limb. Pat
A little stiff on the outer third of the upper limb but lets see a full 2.8" full draw for verification... :p
If it's a reflex/deflex bow, it seems OK, but have to see a full draw
If it's s straight-limbed design, I think it's too strong in the middle of both limbs. Or, too weak near the handle, which is saying the same thing.
Just a guess, but it seems a bit stiff from the mid-limb out. It should come round more evenly. As is, it will bend too much too close to the handle, I think.
But a reflex-deflex bow looks kinda like that when strung.
You guys are good. :)
I had a 1/8" sliver of bamboo flooring left over from a big people's bow I'm building and thought I'd see what it'll make. Didn't tiller it, it'll hold up for a while. Really zips an arrow too at 28"NTN
Gave it to the neighbor boys since they had a mouse problem in their house.

It looks like it might follow the string after some shooting in. Most of the bending is happening right near the handle.
But a mighty nice kid's bow!!
