Nice style!

Nice! What airbrushes are you using?

Thanks Thornton! Still working out best color scheme.

Awesome work!

Really nice!

Hobbi, thanks! I started last August but I've done pinstriping and the hand movements are very much alike.

Thanks Andy! Yes, I airbrushed the edges slightly with Dark Brown and then a little Black.

Really nice! Looks like a lot of hard work.

Looks good! The one problem that stands out to me (because I did the same thing when I started) is that you are extending all of your knife cuts too far. You don't have to obsess over completely joining your cuts. You can bevel the little space left.

Nice work!

Really nice work! Ruger Vaquero?

Beautiful!

I started last August but quickly learned how important quality tools are in Leatherwork. Going from Tandy Starter kits to Barry King tools and Herman Oak leather was like night and day. I think the Tandy kits are great though, so people don't have to invest a lot of money until they decide they really want to do it.

Nice,man! You're putting out a lot work here lately.

Double, this was my first time air brushing sine the 80's so I kept it really basic. Depending on the air brush, you can get less than a pencil line. You pretty much have to know what you are going to do with it and what you are spraying through it before you buy one. Dyes are easy because they are thin and you use them straight from the bottle. When you get into acrylics (like this one) you have to thin the paint and keep the tip of your brush clean. I have several air brushes now, some for really fine detail, but if you want to pick up an all around brush I'd look at the Badger 150 set with 3 different tips and needles. Catch it at a sale at Michaels. You can pretty much spray anything through it. Then grab a cheap compressor.
