Excellent work! Years ago I put one of my belts in our county fair, and I beat out one of our local saddle makers for 'Judges Choice' and 1st place, so I know how you feel.

Hoka Hey! Today, tomorrow, next week, what does it matter?

CONGRATULATIONS!! Great work! Lovely!

(And I think I see the 'rookie mistake' - the latch isn't 100% line up with the horseshoe, but no one's going to notice when the latch is closed!)

Y'know, looking at that open bag shot, the age of the leather is working for you. It looks much more genuinely vintage than new leather with an 'antique' finish and everyone knows leather gets better with age: It has that in common with wine, women and songs.

Those perfectly straight stitching lines are eye catchers too. Nothing speaks of quality like good stitching. 

Congratulations on the recognition and commercial success ('cos money beats ribbons.)

Well done, you get the free beer  :cheers: ( or a fruit juice if you don't drink) .

Apart from that, the latch  is in the way of the image . About half an inch or so lower , it would have cleared it. I underestimated the size of the clasp. But I am very happy with result .BW is always a challenge .

That belt design is cool.

I love to doodle on leather , see what tool does what, have a play. If I like it, it goes on a project.  It also makes the design ' unique'  .

Yes. I used a cammo on the outline of the bw , and a seeder to finish off  :)
