Here is my latest work in progress....a biker's wallet for a guy who owns a BBQ catering company. His truck that pulls the bbq trailer has the same flames on it...so does his business card. I'm planning on dying/staining wallet a distressed brown. Thought about painting the flames but I haven't done any cova color or airbrushing yet so I don't want to ruin this one. If anyone has any cool staining ideas, please give 'em to me! I was thinking about a brown base with black over it and wipe some off to give distressed look?

Beautiful masks! I haven't tried using an airbrush yet. Any recommendations on what make and model to get?

Sweet ride! What tool did you use for the backgrounder on that main "tank" piece? Is it a pebbler? If so, where did you buy it? I'm having a hard time finding some good backgrounders that aren't your typical Crafttool patterns......

I love it! I have a "thing" for anything pirate-y. How much would you sell one of these to me for? Also, how long is the strap? I'm the size of a good beer wench and don't have skinny thighs.....hahaha Seriously though, I want to purchase one!

It's lookin' good!!!! Great job!

I LOVE IT!!!!!! Is it for you or you selling it?

Being from Louisiana myself, great going on the LSU seat so far! GEAUX TIGERS!!!!! Are you keeping the seat natural or dying it purple? (LSU colors are purple and gold, in case anyone asks why I mentioned purple.) Here's a cool pic of Mike the Tiger for inspiration......

Where did you get the face mold? I could use one of those! You're masks are awesome!

Freak....that is one gorgeous piece o' work! I'm from New Orleans and I LOVED your fleur!!!!! It was badass! Great job.......can't wait to look on forums to see some examples of your other work! You motivate me!!!!

Hi....I'm in Atlanta also and there aren't any exotic hide dealers that I know of. If you find any, please let me know. Thanks!

Drac...those are killer! What type of airbrush do you use?

Yeah, it's the big Crafttool set....it is a total pain to try and get them even and the same depth.

That holster is gorgeous! What background tool did you use?

......lined it with really soft kid goat. It took me about 2.5 hours to stitch with a lacing pony and 2 needles. I kind of got too eager and screwed up my order of what to do first....I kind of forgot to do the rest of my camo stamping and had already dyed the piece, so I had to stamp it afterwards and that reflects in the lack of depth in the stamps and also the impression on the lining. Oh well, practice makes perfect, right? Let me know what you think......Thanks!

That is one helluva seat!!!! Gorgeous!
