Pimped my detecting belt

[Paint]

A big fan of the Viking and was looking for a way of getting a belt from that period, need someone good at leather work can get most of the fittings online anyone one hear fancy a challenge no names mentioned anyway managed to get a good quality leather tool belt and some period mounts 3 was a lucky number for the Viking so I was told so grouped them in three’s, it looks good but could do with some more details in the Viking style bit of embossing or burning with some Viking knott work if that the right term I am pleased so far but work in progress
