Sketchbook Steam Powered Zeppelin

Again, I think your work is stunning. Question...did you glue wallpaper to the leather, or is it painted on the leather? Also, I didn't understand what you used the nail polish remover for? Could you give me a little more detail how you obtained the "wallpaper" look? Thanks, and great work!!

Hello!)

Yes, of course, we can tell you more about the process)

For a start we have made a pattern and print it on a laser printer (http://svetliy-sudar.deviantart.com/art/Pattern-of-wallpapers-for-Steam-Sketchbook-522881775)

After embossed and completely dry surface of the leather we put the printed sheet on the skin. And fixed it with the leather with paper tape to the table. Then you should take a nail polish remover and drip onto the sheet. In this place you need to firmly press the sheet to the leather and confident movements to press on the pattern that he moved from paper to leather. We use ordinary tablespoon for these purposes. The same must be done with the following portion of the pattern. And also with the next portion, while not transfer the whole pattern.
Sometimes they write that for these purposes is acetone. But we use a liquid without acetone. Further along the line we have marked the band with colored pencils. After the marking we drew diluted acrylic brown and green wallpaper stripes . On this wallpaper has been completed, and we started painting "framework" and the window)

Thank you for the explanation. I look forward to seeing more of your work posted here.
