Thanks for giving me the direction and compliment. It is true that I didn't know how to give the title at the beginning. I live in Taiwan and there are no horses around my environment , so even don’t know how to make the saddle of the horse.The impressions of the old western just be seen in the movie, and I also want to learn how to make a paddle of a horse some day. Thank Hidepounder spend time to tell me the characteristic of SHERIDAN,and also thank ALAN BELL tell me what he thinks.I am poor in english and I must find my brother to tell me what you say.so I just used my eyes to record and learn Floral Carving in the past.I learned the technique of Stohlman style carving in the book at the begining,and till I have ability to buy the tools of SHERIDAN and then begin to try the style of SHERIDAN.It's few peole to do the job of leathercraft around me,and no one can tell me what is the SHERIDAN,so I think it's the one of part of the western all the time. I didn't want to give up the original skill of the Stohlman style carving in the procedure of learning SHERIDAN.And it's like ClayB say, it's not like the SHERIDAN and also not like the Stohlman.but I respect and worship the both of Stohlman and Don King all the time. I think I just like a child likes eating to love to put the same fruit I like in the same basket, and try to combination of some styles.Maybe it will lost the original meaning,but I feel happy in it.I always learn the new ways the rolling up of leaves just like the metal carving always uses the tooling of Stohlman,and still keeps the cutted line of the metal carving,I don't know what I think is correctly or not really. I thinked about the job of Hidepounder in these days,and It's a pretty good of job.It spreads the flowers in the frame in nature way,and also have the rolling up and fluent leaves. This is the structure of making picture I'd never seen before.I admire the Hidepounder that he understands the style of leather carving very much. just like ClayB saying,I really want to chang my habit of leather carving to fit my work,and even think about changing some tools to fit my works now. Of couse,It's just my own openion,I think I must work more hard because it's a long road about learning. Thanks again about everyone's openion.

Hello Everyone, This Sheridan style Carving is used at wallet for certificate. now I didn't dye the caving. now just add the dye of Burnt dark brown on it.

Hello Everyone, I just made a flying dragon in a myth. I left specically some cutting lines unfinished. let it has a feeling of space.

wow!...It's a special work. It's very beautiful. bobocat

The work is just used the swivelknife to cut out.But I hope you will like it. It's just only used the cutted line to show the fluent,beautiful feeling.

Thank you for giving your criticism about my works. I showed the work just want to have a good side. I like the leathercraft because it’s a happy thing and not noly a job. You can do it. Maybe you forgot to develop you characteristic. Maybe you will use it very fluent just like the pen you use. Collins MS Thank you. I like the name of Birds Eye. ETW Grumpy I have a website(www.bobocat.tw ), it’s also a chinese forum. It is provided to my student and the people who also like the leathercraft to discuss. The works I made before is displayed at the website(http://www.bobocat.tw/thread.php?fid=18). CLAYB I like to call sea-taros at the partially opened flower on the bottom left side. I used number P370 of the pear shader to carve it on the bottom portion of the flower where it wraps around the bud. I use the number P370 from Japanese ELLE company, because the texture of this tool is fine to do that effect easily. It can be increased the depth of this flower. I often use that method to apply to other place to let it have a better vision. bobocat

Thanks, everyone. Your works are very great,too. I often surf on your website to learn where I can enhance for my work from you. CLAYB and SHELLY，NOW I didn’t open the shop, and just a workroom.. I will plan to open a shop in China next year, and now just think about how to contact the businessman for leathercraft. SHELLY,You have a great thinking. I believe you can do a very good job.I hope to see your next work. This place is my approximate workroom now.

The girl is the style of Art Nouveau. the picture is also from Alphonse Maria Mucha. I use the method of mine to craft it. do you like the feeling of effect. It is also used the dye of baso-dyestuff for the work.

I use the picture of Alphonse Maria Mucha that is Art Nouveau to cratf the leather. I use the method of mine to craft it. do you like the feeling of effect. It is also used the dye of baso-dyestuff for the work. It is -dyestuff on the black part. bobocat

thanks a lot leatheroo I use the dye of baso-dyestuff for the work. becuase I have the habbit. it is different to useing the acrylic. It is easy to look the baso-dyestuff of the leathercraft of the background. It is used the acrylic for the white part of the work. ArtS thank you. now I know how I can call it. I don't use the air brush. bue I am good at the air brush. because th feeling to put the color on it is different. so,I use the conditional method to put the color on it for this work.
