The depth of the pattern gets lost with teh straight on camera angle. Shadingteh greys light to dark and dark to light give ti a neat look when viewed from an angle.
MAtching grip inlays of course.

Very sharp, Billy. Love the blue / gray combination. What was the diameter of the wrapped portion of the blank?

About 16mm. I had a more intricate pattern to wrap on here, but the blank was too small and the threads were slipping all over teh place. I'm happy with this, as he wantd a Star pattern which was abstract, froma few feet away teh wrap looks likethe above picture, shaded and kind of tiger-ish, but up close youcan see teh St. J. Pretty cool. Thanks to everyone
