Concho Saddle

What do you think of this barrel saddle I want to build?
It will probably be a Joey Wenger saddle.
http://www.jrwengersaddles.com/index.html
He’s well-known in my area and I know quite a few people who own on of his. http://www.jrwengersaddles.com/barrel_racing_saddles.php
Those are some of the barrel saddles he’s made.
My problem is, that I want something a lot different then what most barrel saddles look like. I want no tooling with oiling like this:

with a hard seat or maybe alligator skin: http://www.jrwengersaddles.com/view_item.php?id=213
And the third concho in on the second row.

Would this look weird?
Any suggestions?
Double Ranch, thank you!
I don’t think I’ll be selling it though, because it’s also a trophy saddle that will have a few words on it too.
He looks to build a good saddle.
I don’t think there is a right or wrong. The only one that needs to be happy with it is you and your horse.
I like the concho you picked.
Remember, if you stray too far from the norm and ever decide to sell it, it might be more difficult.
On the alligator seat, I’d personally prefer a rough out seat for better grip. Also, the texture might not be so pleasant after a few hours.
Good luck and have fun with selecting your saddle design!
