rusty chisel

Yeah! There's a part of Sweden called Hälsingland (pronounced Hell-sing-lund, go figure with the goat and all..) that has a goat as their symbol. Looks like this (sorry, bad photoshopping...): Something like that could work on a headstock, just work the shapes to fit the shape of the headstock better. Bring the legs closer to make it stand on the truss rod cover... Do that. Also, keep in mind that the tuners are going to encroach on the inlay. Both of your prior ponderings may have been partially covered.

Interesting figure although I find it somewhat jarring since the figure of one side is perpendicular to the other. I would consider placing a dark wood stripe between to make the transition softer.

I have lurked on this page for over a year but have not posted until now. Anything about Maiden just sucks me in. I recommend G. The Live After Death album was a compilation of most of their best material and therefore most representative of Maiden. I would suggest scrolling to the right however so that you capture the tombstone with the HP Lovecraft writing. As long as we are talking about this guitar, does anyone know if Adrian ever got the original back after it was stolen after the concert in Greece?
