  1. Johnathan my submission has the E249 for the hammer. There it is with acrylic paint over it. Gives that nice rocky texture.
  2. Finished April Challenge....not happy with it due to a bad paint job but its done

      Chris you did a great job. Cheryl

  3. So here is my fully finished submission as well as a perfect example of how paint in my hands absolutely ruins a good carve and tooled piece of leather. This is why all my projects are usually 1 single color.... However here it is. Did not apply a finish to it yet but will probably put acrylic resolene on it then nail it to the workshop wall just because.... So yea...enjoy.... -Chris
  4. And here is the end image of my challenge entry (still need to dye and paint it though). DoubleC watched me the entire time I did this on the livestream. From start to finish it took about 2 hours and I couldnt be too much happier. And yes...the words are carved in with a ballpoint pen lol. They are the one area that would make me happier but oh well. Hope you enjoy. -Chris
  5. Streaming right now and tooling at http://www.ustream.tv/channel/earth-forge-leathers And johnathan try craftool E249 for gravestone. i love it as a rock texturer
  6. And now broadcasting. going to be tracing then carving etc etc. check it out right here :D im also in the vchat on here http://www.ustream.tv/channel/earth-forge-leathers
  7. Did a redraw of Mjolnir on tracing paper (probably should have just traced the pic but redrew it instead) so i can do it on leather. The one on the right is the now finalized image I will be doing compared to the original on the left.
  8. that would be the blood dripping off the hammer. I thought about it and said yknow...getting hit with the hammer of Thor there would most definitely be blood so why not lol.
  9. At the request of C and Rae I figured why not try something fun eh? I need to fix the lettering a bit and possibly angle the hammer but hey considering my drawing skills are garbage (literally had to push them to their limit for this and all i had was pen) I think it will look great on leather and in color. Opinions?
  10. HUUUUGE Spartacus fan. And this piece is absolutely fantastic! Any chance of possibly setting me up with a basic pattern for shoulder armor like this?
  11. Hey there. Anyone know of a leather guild or other crafters around buffalo?
  12. Hey there. Crafter from Ny here experienced in making knife sheaths and hand tooling. Email me at Regalto@gmail.com for more information. Our stuff can also be seen on facebook. Check out Earth Forge Leathers. -Chris
  13. So I have the pattern to make a vest but I have no idea where to begin. Id love to hand tool a large phoenix on the back of the vest but I don't know if I can use veg tanned leather for a vest, and if I do would it even be comfortable? Also I can't afford a sewing machine (the one I have is yet untested on leather and is like a day older than dirt). So how would I go about hand sewing this? Any hdlp would be greatly appreciated. -Chris
  14. Hello. Newbie here from Niagara Falls. Been leatherworking for a few months with a partner of mine. Got our first craft show in april. Right now we have done belts, flasks,wallets, keychains and bracelets, mostly using kits. I hope to expand my knowledge on all things leather and I'm glad I'm here.
