Saddle bottle

[wolfago]

hi, this is a leather bottle for the saddle. I recognize some mistakes like unfluid cutting lines and little depth but I didn't want to go too deep because the leather is about 3/32 thick.. tell me where I can improve .. thanks

Not bad!  On thin leather I rely less upon cutting depth than on beveling depth.  A good, burnished bevel can look much deeper than it actually is. True for all the stamps, I guess.  

There could be a bit more flow in the veiner, instead of lining up along the vines they should flow around the curves.

But otherwise a pretty good practice piece.

I think the decorative cuts on the flower petals are too straight. They need to flow with the curve of the lines.
