Beautifully done! Honestly, I wouldn't paint it in, since an archery bracer should be worn with the smooth face in and there's the risk of the string slapping the leather and taking paint off. It's beautiful the way it is - and less likely to show damage from the string. You think getting your wrist slapped is bad - I saw a woman shooting a 50lb recurve catch her breast with the string... that just looked agonizing.
