Thank you, shadows would help, need too see how it could be done. In photography the picture is made in the shadows.

 

Go to google . . . search for "youtube:  leather carving shadows

I haven't done it . . . but anything I need info on . . . that's how I get it.

May God bless,

Dwight

"Figure Carving" by AL Stohlman would give you that info for adding the shading.  I see Tandy is sold out on that book; however they have "How to carve Leather" which also shows the process Al used. 

I like that sheath BTW, very well done imo.

Thank you, got both of them in boxes somewhere from the move.

Thank you, google can be a friend.

 

Started on a Buck 119 sheath to go with the Bowie.
