Thanks! That's a fantastic compliment to receive. -
Thanks very much for the input! I'll try a few test wings with molding first and then stamping while on and off the mold.

This was my first real leatherwork project. I used the pattern from Tandy and a design out of a book of dragon drawings.© 2014 Sioranth Smith

I made both of these from the hair of the Appaloosa that I lease. The lower one is my personal wristband and the top one was given to her owner as a gift.© 2015 Sioranth Smith

This bracelet was done as a favor and by request for the owner of the barn where I lease. She specified that she wanted it like my personal wristband and it's made from the hair of one of her deceased horses.© 2015 Sioranth Smith

I'm going to be making a little leather harness with dragon's wings for my bearded dragon. Ideally, I'd like to do a little stamping on the wings to give them texture (like, say, Craftool E294) and then wet shape them over a (yet to be made) form to give them a more 3D effect with the webbing being depressed and "ribs" being elevated. I've never done wet shaping before and the tutorials I've looked up online all show smooth leather being shaped and finished. So, my questions are: 1) Can you do both stamping and wet shaping on the same piece? and 2) If so, in what order should you do them? I feel like I should shape first and then stamp because the stamping might get stretched and misshapen if you did it first. Anyone have any input on this?
