WATER STAINED LOUIS VUITTON VACHETTA
NatesLeatherGds replied to JessVuksic's topic in How Do I Do That?
You may want to take it to a professional in person. A bag that value and I personally wouldn't want to offer advice on-line at risk of some sort of mess up. Just my 2 cents. -
Threw this together for myself. Gift watch. Bund strap. I likes it. 4-5 oz veg tan fiebings light brown pro dye 2 coats made it nice and dark angelus conditioner to finish
-
looking good!

Welcome! Enjoy your progress and have fun.

Pictures of he belt and maybe a sketch of what you want ? Then someone here can decide how to help or make arrangements with you. Just a suggestion.
-
Yes, and just keep on going as long as you can!

Getting the angles on those is never fun for me. I stick with glass pickle jars -- straight. Good luck! Hope it all comes together.

What kind of leather is this?

Yes, need an edge. Unfortunately the company website (translated) doesn't give much data. -
Working on this bag -- this is the front, with the painted panel (pocket big enough for iphone), which was done by my wife with acrylic and pre-carved. Sealed with resolene (shout out for the preval sprayer - solved resolene running issues). Will assemble over the next few days and put it up for sale... somewhere.

Yes, plenty of uses for dark dyes though, so not wasted certainly. Try this - even with the darker dye - apply it to your stamped surface, then quickly wipe excess off the top layer (the higher portion of your stamped item). Practice on timing and speed on your item when wiping. (do practice runs on bits that you can afford to toss if you don't like the result). And post more pictures of your progress!
