fish scales wrap

There is a very nice purple fish scales wrap on the photo page. Would some one be so kind as to give me a brief outline as to how this wrap is done. I can do some wraps so a great deal of info is not needed just something to get me started.
Cheers Alex

Large chevrons done on 4 axis nicely faded and outlined in black.

It's a nice and easy pattern that works well on med diameter blanks. Like Micahel said, it's a plus one wrap...
