leatheroo Report post Posted April 28, 2008 Finished a new mask today...wasnt really happy with the shape, it started out much bigger but i keep snipping here and there, but it was really to try a new airbrush stencil and some new paints.... how you like the paint pattern.

lindatt Report post Posted April 28, 2008 Oh my gosh Roo.... that looks real! The paint job is awesome... Is that airbrushed? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gremlin Report post Posted April 28, 2008 I love the coloring. Roo, you've probably been asked this question before but ...... do you use a liner on your masks? If so, what do you use? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
leatheroo Report post Posted April 28, 2008 Lindatt, thanks for the comments, and yes i use an airbrush to do all my painting on the masks and usually on other leather projects as well. Leather dyes airbrush really well Gremlin i dont line the mask, but i do give a lcoat of paint and seal the front and back with a gloss sealer. My daughter has worn my masks and has never complained. I think because they are such a good fit there is no rubbing. cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
