  1. From the album: Firefighting Gear

    This was a fun project. The flames were a chalenge to not make them look to cheesy or fake. I used an airbrush and lightly dusted them with black dye to give a smoked out look.

  2. I'm wanting to invest in some blueguns. What are the top 5 guns you would recomend to start with? What about your top 10? Just curious... Ferg
  3. Where do I post to have things show up in the recent gallery images? Can I create a gallery to showcase my work?
  4. I think I just threw up a little bit in my mouth....
  5. Great job! My biggest struggle as of late is hands, great job on these......
  6. Thank you. It needs some tweaking and detail work for sure. But I'm ok with it for a first crack at one off the top of my head with no real thought or planning.
  7. Yes they overlap, I thinned them down with a skiving tool. As for comfort, I dig it so far but it's only been an hour or so since I finished it. I will get back to you on it.
  8. So yesterday I had a conversation with someone about my leatherwork and it turned it to one of those "Could you make this?", "Well, could you make that?", What about one of these?" kind of conversations. So today I asked my inner monologue if I could do a cool makeover on my old watch. "Hell yes I can!" It was originally waaaay to wide, even for me. So I trimmed it down a total of a half inch, and I think this is a good balance. The two tone dye was intentional. It's all done in saddle tan with antique. Then the base strap I did a light dusting of black with my airbrush to darken it down a touch. Let me know what you think and feel free to crtitique, I have thick skin. And it's all made from my scrap bin! Bonus!
  9. Up in the workshop like a MADMAN. The radio is blasting, the tools are pounding, the dye is flowing, my heart is racing, adrenaline pumping. DAMN it feels good to be alive!
