I forgot to post a full draw pic on this build.  Here are some stats.  It is 42lbs at 28”.  It’s 58 1/2” ttt and just under 58” ntn.  It spits out a 9gpp arrow at 185-188 fps.  It is a bamboo backed and bellied bow with a few layers of sinew covered with thin roo rawhide and stained with leather dye and painted up.  All sealed with several layers tru oil.  The black stained belly is also bamboo lam.  Leather wrap handle with some cork for palm swell shaping.  Red dyed Ostrich leg leather on the fades area.  I used black sting ray for the arrow pass on both sides.  I played around with the brace height a bit prior to settling on a endless loop string in red and black.  Felt it shoots best at lower then typical brace.  Thanks for looking guys.
