    I agree Springfield is great at helping getting you pointed in the right direction.

    I doubt you will find a premade interior for that style wallet. Pretty unique and more of a specialty wallet that wouldn't really fit thepremade market.

    When do you need this? I actually am thinking this would be cool to make.

    If you not in a hurry I am thinking I could whip one up and maybe a spare template might be be hanging around when I'm done.

    I hand dyed the red for the halo around the gargoyle. I airbrushed the black.

    The gray color was achieved by a super secret formula that only NASA and I know about.

    Actually, not.

    I used RTC to resist, let dry about 45 minutes (no longer than a hour or it will get splotchy) and a light even coat (via airbrush) of Fiebings USMC Black over the RTC, then buff the heck out of it with a shoe polish brush. Allow to dry a couple hours and a light coat of black antique to accent a few lines and neatlac the whole thing.

    Wow Big Papa that sucks.

    I've seen monkey's with rocks and tree branches tool better than that.

    And the subject matter, that isn't traditional floral or skulls. You should find another hobby.

    What were you thinking?

    That's just gross.

    LOL 70 views and not a single comment.

    Those comments above would have been better than nothing.

    And in case your wondering, Yes I am an attention whore.

    Look at me! Look at me!

    Now since I said that can I get a A'men ?!?

    Ha Ha Ha Ha!

    Just kidding... sort of..

    I wet molded thin veg-tan to use as an underlay form on a eye patch I covered in black ostrich for a buddy who lost his eye in a shooting incident. ( (pistol barrel exploded).

    He wanted an rich evil bad guy look. Ya know the criminal mastermind evil doctor 007 type ;)

    2 oz vegtan cut to the shape of the cheap-o-patch from Walgreens. I then wet the leather and placed it on a baseball and then Seran wrapped it for a few hours. I then took the plastic wrap off and let it dry.

    Glued the ostrich to the front

    Lined the inside with black deerskin.

    Quick 1/32" kangaroo lace around the outside and a braided kangaroo tie strap.

    Turned out nice.

    Ok, I almost had a skull vomit session after this order. Doubtful that you can do much more to add skulls to this. granted, smaller skulls and more of them but DAMN.

    Old School style biker with 5 skulls on front. Small skull on belt loop.

    3 on the back

    and a belt...

    I think the sickest part of this combo is the color. I wanted to do an aged, 1000 year old look to the skulls. Turned out pretty close.

    Didnt' photo the interior, but it is the red skull pile liner (what else huh?) I've used in other pieces.

    Thanks for looking.

    Here is a biker wallet or long wallet that I finished up last week. I took it to show my buddy who owns a Mexican restaurant in town. This was his response:

    "Ese es un payaso sucio desagradable."

    Translated means "That is a nasty dirty clown."

    So I give you Sucio the clown!

    Aww come on who we trying to kid here? I need to warn you folks about Paul.

    This is a prime example, . This last October at the boot and saddle show Paul took a perfectly almost sharp knife I was carrying and sharpened it to a razor edge. Can you imagine such an individual? On top of that, he wouldn't give the knife back for like 10 minutes as he improved the cutting edge on his stones. He did this without expecting anything in return... See somethings wrong here. This isn't what normal people do. It's weird. Kind of scary huh?

    Beware of these folks. Be afraid, very afraid!

    All kidding aside Paul and Rosa are good people. They are examples of the best in this industry. Best of the best.

    Thanks for doing what you do guys.
