  1. It looks good. Saddle stitching should be more than strong enough. I made a carrier for the same model phone and I ended up stitching a leather belt strap. I wanted to water proof mine and used multiple light coats of a spray lacquer. I have also had good results on a motorcycle seat using resoline (sprayed through an airbrush)and a neutral shoe polish afterwards.
  2. Thank you everyone. Chris, I designed it myself. I had inspiration from other cases of course.
  3. Oh and I haven't perfected it yet but I am using the Peter Main method books for guidance on my projects thanks to you. Maybe I'm lazy, but I've been using the airbrush instead of a paintbrush. I will continue to strive to get to your depth of color some day though. Take care. Kevin
  4. Thanks. The stingray hides are cool and tough, but a little bit of a nuisance when it comes to punching holes. That won't stop me from working with it though.
  5. Thank you very much.
  6. Congrats. You deserve it. I love all of your work.
  7. Thank you. I had a lot of fun designing and creating it.
  8. Thank you all for the awesome comments. Billybopp- I found a translator online for hieroglyph but the translation is not family friendly. Let's just say I was inspired by Pulp Fiction. OdinUK- I did not use real stone. I used a swivel knife to define my edges and used one of the Tandy backgrounders over and over again for the entire border. For the overall beat up look, I just took various leather working tools and dropped them from about two feet onto the leather many times over, once the tooling was complete.
