Default customer inlay

here is another inlay concept that is 'brought to life'. This was a request from a customer I did a few years ago. I'm showing you this so you can see how the piece's can come together to make the inlay from some scribbled lines - to making a cool final inlay piece. From those drawings, I'll try to make it look cool.

Here is his art work picture.



Here it is "stretched" for the fingerboard - the perspective was "too high". It is also "placed" so the frets don't go through important details.



Here is the inlay.





And here is after the luthier put it in. He consulted with me and I showed him how to put it in with a successive set of drawings. He "got it" right away and he did a fantastic job of putting it in.
