Trying to figure out how to carve and dye a trout.  The under belly is giving me fits

The underbelly in the pic looks like its undyed, maybe some NFO to texture it a bit.

Kindest regards

It is dyed, just a lighter color.  I treated with Bee's natural saddle oil, don't have any NFO.  I gave up on NFO years ago, I just don't like what it does to the leather.  A trout's underside is almost a cream color and I can't find a white dye to mix.
