Looks Great, cant wait to see it all finished!! What are you going to do with the inside, make it yourself or use an a pre-made insert?

Going with a pre-made insert. Just easier for me as I don't have a sewing machine.

That's really nice. Can you describe (briefly) how you did the dying/colouring and what dyes and/or paint you used? Thanks.

I did two coats of Fiebings Red but I had to add a little yellow to even out the tone of the red(thanks again Kate), let it dry for 24hrs, then I used a black sharpie to get the edge on the tooling nice and crisp. Then filled in the rest with Fiebings USMC Black. Hope this helps.
