Thanx Tommie...Merry Christmas Storm

Beautiful work Josh! Any lady would love this on her shoulders. Very nicely done! Very Merry Christmas, Storm

Thanx so much for the compliments! Storm

Perhaps it should say "Please lift and then aim" LOL!In my house it was always please return the seat to the upright position at all times as we who actually have to clean will appreciate it! Storm

Thanx much Pancho! Feliz Navidad! Storm

Twas the night before Christmas and all through my shop not a creature was stirring except me. Stirring another Jack and Coke and trying to channel my inner Keith. HA! He still needs some finishing off but I will do that tomorrow when I am roasting the Christmas turkey! Perhaps I should have done him with a cigarette in his mouth. Perhaps another time. Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night! Storm

Sam they both look great. Hard to figure which one I like most. I like them both both the one in the middle is very nice!!! Love the carving and the color! Storm

No problem! They are on sale for $4.99 each! Really good deal! Go here: http://springfieldleather.com/store/category/115/800/Bargain-Roundup-3/ Enjoy...I do! They are really nice tools! Storm

Bobby, They Arrived on Christmas Eve(Today) I played around a little when I got them. Thanx much for the suggestion. Really like the feel. My son said I can now do realistic lizard skin! HA! Thanx again, Storm

If I can help you out with your problem then let me know. I know computers and images pretty well. Storm

Very Cool! I especially like the cuff. What is the meaning of the words in German. My rough translation is "They say talk". Liked your packaging approach and the cards. Good idea! Merriest of Holidays, Storm

Very Nice! This is going to look nice under someones Christmas tree. Storm

I agree! You have created a wonderful gift for your grandson. I think we could all use more handmade gifts for Christmas. He will treasure it for a long time. Storm

Hi Danilo, Great piece of leather carving and construction. Grande parte do couro escultura e construção. How long have you been working in leather?Há quanto tempo você vem trabalhando em couro? Nothing like vector graphics for creating a carving template for you leather. Nada como gráficos vetoriais para a criação de uma escultura de modelo para você couro. You have the hands of a master craftsman and you work is inspiring! Você tem nas mãos de um mestre artesão e que o trabalho é inspirador! I look forward to your next piece. Estou ansioso para a sua próxima peça. Storm

The client has reached his no charge limit with me. Anymore additional changes are going to cost him an additional $150 for design and pattern changes and the original fee of a nice bit of cash. He wanted it as a Christmas gift but that is not going to happen as it is two days away. I like to give good service to my clustomers but I have to draw the line somewhere. He has not been charged anything to this point and I have a well paying customer who has me signed up and a deadline. I have worked for this guy before and he knows my work....so he is going to have to get going on this or I will cut him loose. He has had super service up to this point but his free ride is over. Storm

I like the first one too!

So I have a client who decided that the first chimp was not angry enough. So then I gave him a whole new layout; as you can see here in the drawing attached with teeth showing. Then after waiting for days for him to get back to me he says he wants to go in a different direction. HA! Don't you just love them?!?! Some clients are so much fun! So now you see herewith Skull Star. I have sent him the new images and told him that he will have to wait until well into January if he changes his mind again. I told him I have a client at SODEXO that wants some graphics worked up and it is a signed off job. Maybe he will get it in gear. Doubt it but.....I live in hope! LOL!

Wow Mark! I really like theses chinks! The colors are great and also the chap leather. Looks substantial and ready to go. Storm

Keith Richards is next when I get a chance! Storm

Now that is what I call EXOTIC! You come up with the best stuff! Nice work!!!! Storm

Yes I believe so. Storm

I believe it was. This was done in the early sixties. The hide is still soft and supple. Storm

Made this awhile back. Had kept the hide for a long time waiting to create something with it. When I was twelve I bagged my first buck, a six pointer. My grandfather had the head mounted and the hide tanned.

Yup!

First I cut and bevel and then use a modeling spoon to get some depth and direction and then finish it off with a hair blade in a swivel knife. Storm
