This is a buttplate for my little .22 rifle. I reshaped the stock and thought I might like an engraved buttplate, gripcap and receiver just to personalize it a bit. I'm pretty happy with the design but found myself staring at the two blank spaces at the top of the plate. I don't know what to do with them.
I like the progressively smaller scrolls and having them centered . but now I have the blank spaces bugging me. Are my scrolls too small ? Should I have made them so big as to touch the sides of the plate? Any help will be appreciated.
By the way, I see I didn't continue my spine through the 2nd scroll and will take care of that and the huge scratch across the second scroll . This is a piece of scrap out of my pile of too good to throw away metal and I think the small pitting won't be noticed when done.
