hidepounder Posted May 28, 2009 Report Posted May 28, 2009 Here's a progress photo of an organizer I'm currently working on. I decided to draw some new flowers (my version of some flowers that have been around for a long time), and try them out on this project. I was getting tired of tooling all the little flowers I've been using lately. It was kind of fun to tool something that was standard size for a change! Please let me know what you think.....critiques, suggestions and ideas always welcome. Bob Quote
Members Randy Cornelius Posted May 28, 2009 Members Report Posted May 28, 2009 Wonderful as always! Can you do a close up of the little rope around the letters? I would like to see the detail. I would like to use that on a project if you don't mind? Randy Quote
Members TroyWest Posted May 28, 2009 Members Report Posted May 28, 2009 That's great tooling Bob. Quote
Members Shelly Posted May 28, 2009 Members Report Posted May 28, 2009 Really gorgeous work, as always, Bob! Are you using Wickett for your leather?? I thought it might be, with the way it's colored up, I assume you already have a coat of oil on it? Will you be carving or stamping the back of the organizer?? Quote
Members jbird Posted May 28, 2009 Members Report Posted May 28, 2009 BOB You just are leting your work go to pot Lol ! I think it's amazing is there a limit to your talent Josh Quote
Moderator bruce johnson Posted May 28, 2009 Moderator Report Posted May 28, 2009 Bob, Great job. I really like how you kept those central flowers above the others by bringing the continuing stem underneath. It really makes them pop. WOW. Bruce Quote
BearMan Posted May 28, 2009 Report Posted May 28, 2009 Hi Bob, Outstanding work,,, as always!!! I kinda like the darker background color, I may try a shade or two darker on my next project.

hidepounder Posted May 28, 2009 Author Report Posted May 28, 2009 (edited) Wonderful as always! Can you do a close up of the little rope around the letters? I would like to see the detail. I would like to use that on a project if you don't mind?Randy Thanks, Randy, I'll take a close-up of that when I do the final photos. It's not special, just two parallel lines. Bob That's great tooling Bob. Thanks Troy! Bob Really gorgeous work, as always, Bob! Are you using Wickett for your leather?? I thought it might be, with the way it's colored up, I assume you already have a coat of oil on it? Will you be carving or stamping the back of the organizer?? Thanks, Shelly.....the leather is Hermann Oak. I used a Neat-Lac resist and then antiqued. The back and the binding will not have much tooling....i'ts a donation so I can't afford to fully tool both sides. Bob BOB You just are leting your work go to pot Lol ! I think it's amazing is there a limit to your talent Josh Thanks Josh! Bob Bob,Great job. I really like how you kept those central flowers above the others by bringing the continuing stem underneath.

Thanks for sharing,,, Ed the"BearMan" Thanks Ed....I started to do that and then decided to just keep it simple....... Bob That is really Nice. Where did you come up with the pattern?
