  1. Welcome to the forum. Im considering trying a Buell, Lightning Long. Ive always like those. Thats a nice bit of tooling, even more-so condinering you havnt been doing it for long.
  2. Thats absolutely amazing, one of my top two bands:)
  3. Thanks Tom, I will give it a try on some scraps.
  4. Great pictures Tom, If they tour England I'll make an effort to see them. How come you add the alcohol, I would have thought that it would thin the colour out or make it less vibrant? Do you just apply several coats?
  5. Tom, those are brilliant! I still cant get the same bright red dye effect with the same dyes, it always seems more dull. Which finish did you use? The red V on the black background is great.
  6. Nice work! For the headlight, will you be wet molding the leather over the shape of the light unit?

    Hello

    Welcome Sticky:) Ive been leatherworking for just over a year and this forum has been great! Im in Leominster, not too far from Wales. Cheers Paul
  8. Thanks, I plan to try something similar at some point, First Ill be ordering some tan dye to try out.
  9. Are the side sections wet moulded to keep thier shape?
  10. Thanks, I wouldnt mind trying that effect sometime. Is that Tan dye? It looks more reddish rather than tan.
  11. Great work! Can you explain how you got that finish? How and what dye you used and the final finish? I really like that look. Thanks.
  12. Nice work! I look forward to seeing the Iron Maiden one
  13. Thanks. I've not tried doing much with antique yet. I'll have to have a practice with some simple coasters.
  14. Very nice, what final finish did you use? Did you antique over the black as well or just the skull?

    Hi and welcome to the forum. Paul
  16. Hi Oz, Welcome to the forum. Its a great place to mingle with like minded folk. I have learnt so much from this forum. Paul ( from Herefordshire )
  17. Fantastic tooling! And the braiding is so neat!
  18. Steve, those mugs are amazing. Im looking forward to having a go myself. I think I will try using 50% bees wax and 50% pitch based on what Ive read on here. How long does it take to make each one?
  19. What did you use for the eyebrows?
  20. I love it! Did you use paints or dyes to colour it? Also. Did you form the whole face with wet forming or just the nose?
  21. Welcome to the forum Martin. Where about in Dorset are you? Im going to Poole next weekend. Ive been interested in leatherworking for about 18 months but got really stuck in about 12 months ago. I look forward to seeing some of your work. Paul
