Kevin King Posted August 21, 2010 Report Posted August 21, 2010 Hey friends! I know I havn't been on in a long time. Kinda miss it around here but things have been super crazy! It's like 400 degrees in my shop right now, so I thought I'd take a minute and share my latest with you all. It's a wallet i've been wanting to make for about a year now and just decided to stitch er up. I'd also like to show a little of the process of layering the leather for the design. I'll just let the pics speak for themselves. This isn't really a tutorial, just progress pics with the final shots. The wip pics are with my phone so they aren't that great, which was kind of on purpose...makes the final pics that much cooler. I didn't use a lot of exotics on this one, just a lot of different black leathers to get a cool effect with different textures. Enough blah blah blah...on with the pics.

Kevin King Posted August 30, 2010 Author Report Posted August 30, 2010 Thanks all for the kind words! That thing is a beauty! Is the bottom layer elephant hide? Good eye man. The rest is various cowhide, one kidskin, and a teeny bit of frog in the eye. very cool, i love the thread color choice... and the scales... eric Thanks eric! I had no idea what the colors were going to be until I started making it. These things kinda make themselves, I just help em along. If you look closely, the scales run two different directions. For some reason, it just didn't look right when I had them going all the same way. Love it, glad to see you back and I hope you stick around if lifes a little more relaxed now. Thanks buddy! I'm gonna try to get back here more, been looking around at all the new stuff and people. Very cool. Relaxed? I really wish man. Maybe one of these days.
