  1. Finally I got to the workshop and took a photo with most resolution of my camera. From bottom to top - a modeling mini-tool, a tool for forming hair and a regular pencil (for estimating sizes).

    Tools made on the basis of dentist spatulas.  Stainless steel and the price of 2.5 dollars :)

    Wow! This is incredible!!!  It's  even better than the lion pair which I thought was fantastic!  I would so love to see how you work. <sigh>.

    What are leather inserts?

    Thank you! :)

    My weak English apparently distorted the meaning. It is a leather PLUGS that forms a relief. On which subsequently the main piece of leather is already superimposed, which with the help of bevelers and modeling tools repeats the relief of plugs. This technique is remarkably described by Al Stohlman in his book "The Art of Embossing Leather by Al and Ann Stohlman".

    UPD. This book is available in LeatherCraftLibrary https://www.leathercraftlibrary.com/product/1124/the-art-of-embossing-leather-by-al-and-ann-stohlman for free. 

    Special thanks to Tandy Leather for making such a great gift to all leatherworkers in the form of free access to a huge number of great books.
