My first attempt at an inlay

[jimmay]

This is my fifth sheath and my first attempt at an inlay. It is definitely a brain teaser trying to figure this out without any prior knowledge. I made this one for my CPK Field Knife in a cross draw pancake "style". There are a few mistakes like lining my punch on the wrong mark for a belt loop and some dye leaching through. But overall I'm pretty happy with it.

Here it is still wet from forming.




Here it is after finishing.



Here is my attempt at photography (lol).

Thank you bflying. I know it's not as awesome as most who post here but I'm still learning the hard way.
