That's pretty cheap. How long are you working on a solo seat like this? -

That's looking nice. How much are you asking for a seat like this? -
In the meantime use this http://web.archive.org/web/20160313203559/http://kingsmerecrafts.com/Contents.html

Tim, I hope you're working in an office, cause they are far too nice for a construction site.

Thanks Sandra. That's a process picture. Have to do a few more things to finish it like highlighting certain areas and applying conditioner etc. Should be finished by tomorrow. -

Absolutely stunning work Bob. -

Prototype of a belt for the group. Was trying to get something different going and not the ordinary typical club belt. With about 6 mm thickness it's pretty strong. Strong enough to even add a holster to it. -
Thank you all.

Thanks colt. Thanks, it's dye actually and the seat got a coat of bag kote first, added some hi-liter to bring out the cuts better, added a coat of tan kote and will be sealed/conditioned with a custom made conditioner I got from leatherisfun to protect it from UV rays and water. I'm guessing the skull will still darken naturally and should give it this gentle worn style in time. Probably not as fast as if it would be mounted to a bike, but it should work out fine.

Not sure about the correct English term but the brand is Morello and might be what you're looking for.

Title says it all. It's the first seat ever and I have to say I'm pretty pleased with it even though this isn't my forte. 2 progress pics are in the gallery. The padding is far to thick for this 3.5 mm thick leather. I had to trim down the edges a bit to make it work, but in the end it all worked out. For future seats I'd be making a positive and a negative mold form to make life a bit easier, mold first, tool and dye then. The tooling looked a lot better before molding. Having another seat in the works already, I'm happy this one is done and can go up for display. Thanks for viewing. BTW. critique is always welcome.

This seat will be fully laced to the side panels of the seat. The shape is just a rough cut out thus far. Don't nail me for the misspelling. Wasn't me. Told those guys, but obviously it was done on purpose to be different. On the other hand Germans spell it Hobbys instead of hobbies and Ponys instead of ponies; so who cares?
