Thats really eye catching.

Thanks everyone!

Fish skin can be highly durable and useful. I have a djembe that has a sturgeon skin head. I've beat that drum as hard as possible and the skin holds up like nothing else. I wouldn't make a holster out of it, but it would be a cool inlay.

Thanks everyone. Antwene, That was the first time I've ever done that and I thought about it a LOT before doing it. I like how it turned out as well!

In my opinion, guns can get wet. My duty gun has spent days in the rain where I've had to dump water out of it. There was nothing about this holster that could harm the finish, so I just used the actual gun. Usually, I use a blue gun, but I didn't have this model. After a quick cleaning, dry and oil, the gun is just fine. Also, my holsters are so tight during wet molding, that a plastic bag rips right off and becomes a PITA.

I buy backs. The belly pieces are useless for me and I end up with bins full that I never use. Backs are long enough for belts and strong enough for everything.

Brian, the techniques used are a swivel knife cut around the shape, and then beveling around the cuts. You could use a beveler for this, but I have created this effect by using pear shaders. Its pretty easy actually, and the shapes I see here definitely would fit a pear shader. Wet leather is like clay, and while you are pushing the leather in one direction or another, it will actually raise the surface as more of the collagen is pushed into a new area. I think if you practiced a bit you could replicate this easily. If you want, I'll take pics of the guitar strap I did that is similar to this.
