JohnBarton Posted January 27, 2009 Report Posted January 27, 2009 Love the panorama effect. No borders makes it work for me and really shows off the boundlessness of the scene. Seems like a tricky belt to wear though. Quote

Contributing Member ClayB Posted January 27, 2009 Contributing Member Report Posted January 27, 2009 Hi Josh, I dont know where you find the time to do all the stuff you do. I've tried those really tiny animals on a belts once or twice, I hated it. If you had to put a border on the belt, they'd have to be even smaller. So lets just make a law that tiny animal belts cant have borders It's really fun watching you keep trying new things. You're doing a great job! Quote

Clay I find my self asking the same question but I do a 9 hour work day and then a six hour leather program. I can't tell you how much a have learned from you, thanks so much it means alot having you look and coment on my stuff. I love the rule no borders on figure belts yippy. Josh Quote

Contributing Member TwinOaks Posted January 28, 2009 Contributing Member Report Posted January 28, 2009 6 hours of leatherwork......I'm jealous. Excellent work on the belt Josh. I'm still not sure of that 'no border' rule, the dang liberals will probably ruin the idea....oh wait, they already have. Something for you to check out- Look at your more recent work, and grab some of your early practice pieces then compare them. You've made some amazing progress with your addiction. Keep up the good work. Quote
Members SouthPaw Posted January 28, 2009 Members Report Posted January 28, 2009 looks great p.s. i like breaking rules....i guess this is some un-written rule that im yet to learn? Quote

Ambassador leatheroo Posted January 28, 2009 Ambassador Report Posted January 28, 2009 wow, thats really nice.....i like 'no borders' equals 'no rules' .... Quote
Members AgronZoti Posted January 28, 2009 Members Report Posted January 28, 2009 Really nice work. I think it really looks nice with no border…. I think if u textured the edge of the buckle a bit like the top of the belt I might blend more nicely with the rest. Quote
Members jbird Posted January 28, 2009 Author Members Report Posted January 28, 2009 thanks freinds for the input and kind words. Let me tell you my thoughts behind the buckle design wise I wanted the foucus to be on the element of the forest and the proverbially king or night watchmen of the forest any way what I mean is that a more basic scene a and I thought a any back ground would take away. Any way that was the thought. Josh Quote
Members meanfidler Posted July 12, 2011 Members Report Posted July 12, 2011 That's a one of a kind belt that your customer will be so proud to wear. I'm new to working with leather, but to me the belt having no border is insignificant compared to the work you have done! Quote
