Members Misty Posted March 26, 2010 Members Report Posted March 26, 2010 (edited) I'm a total newbie to leather tooling, but have fiddled with making plain cuffs and stuff for years. I've decided to work on my tooling a lot more now. I have limited tools so I'm working with what I've got. I definitely need to pick up some more types of bevelers and backgrounders. I haven't done anything with shading yet since that scares me, so Celtic knotwork it is. My first try ever was the Tandy craftaid, the the second I traced onto some plastic and transferred to the leather with a stylus. I was mainly working on my outline beveling, and I definitely like the textured one better. And I am in love with the tan colored antiquing gel. You can tell I got sloppy at the end of the first since I wanted to get it all done in one sitting. I've been making chainmaille for 9 years now so I thought my leather craft could use some catching up. I'm not up for critiquing yet, just wanted to maybe get some encouragement.
