nice work bud, very clean and even lookingI like your colors in the cheveron.

I personely don't like the underwrap purple, IMO black or metellics make for nice underwraps. In the chevron useing alot of black and silver/gold metellics realy high lites your work and brings out color.

Being that your chevron spacing are far apart what you could do if you haven't finished it yet is.....lay gold metellic of about 3-5 threads depending what you like, below the first thread you layed in the chevron (I think you went from bottem to top.) then add 1 of black. This will dress up the chevron and take a little bit more away from the purple. Keep up it Dude!!!
