Tooled Roll Bag and Tool Bag

Recommended Posts

I finally finished my large roll bag and tool bag.

They are now on my bike and match the seat beautifully.

Nicely done. How did you get that color. I'd like to try it. I can never get the fade to look that beautiful.

Thankyou.

I airbrushed the stain starting with British Tan building it up.

Follow through with a little Mahogany mixed with British Tan to achieve a slightly darker red/brown and then overspray with a light Tan to add the golden hue.

The colour really glows beautifully in the sunshine.

They are stunning and the tooling + fade colours looks really great!!

The lacing I think is up to each and everyone to decide but I'd go with a braid for these two because they're so beautiful that they deserve it.

For criticism I like to add that rounding off the corners on the front flap would lift overall apperance very much.

Thanks for the constructive feedback Tom, it's appreciated.

This is the first time I have ever made bags.

I need to now have a go at braid as I really love the quality look it achieves.

I'm also still trying to figure out burnishing edges and I guess it comes down to practice.

Thank you
