The Peace Series Collars and a Belt

[LAPat]

I am definately new to this game of tooling, but I like color, I like the process and if something is a little imperfect, I try to make it part of the piece. These are of course dress collars, not for everyday. Tiki is an Aussie, and the belt is for a friend's daughter -- it really wasn't done when I took these, I darkened the tooling somewhat. I'm using acrylic paint and some Tandy stuff, gluing the lining down and basically following what I guess is long tradition of "figure it out as you go." I wish I had spirit dyes but I live in California. All comments welcome.

Thanks for looking

Color looks great, really nice collars! I'm new to the game as well, so I know what you mean! I haven't tooled yet though, just some pyrography and paint. Keep it up!
