Well this little lady has her make up on now. three pieces of Copperhead skins and 4 layers of shellac. I did accidentally rip the skin while removing the scales but oh well, ill be careful next time. Since this one is my first sinew backed osage shortie, she needs a name, any suggestions?

It turned out great.  Copperheads on osage is a great combination. 
I started out with nothin' and I still got most of it left

Sweet work Jordan. Do you need some grip leather for it? PM if you do.

She turned out nice, Bowman!!
