mugwump Report post Posted December 28, 2010 (edited) kevin, like most (well, all) of the stuff you post, i like what what you did with the finish... it looks absolutely great.... one question though (as always,hehehe...) did you line it with fabric? and if 'yes', did you have the fabric made/printed up? or did you do it yourself? take care, hope you hade a great x-mas, and have a happy new year! eric Edited December 28, 2010 by mugwump Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin King Report post Posted December 28, 2010 Ya, I have the linings made locally. I have started putting either my logo lining or one-off custom linings in all of my pieces. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BigGriff Report post Posted January 7, 2012 You have gotta tried to replicate that cracked look since this original posting. NOW, how did you do it! I wantone, Iwantone,Iwantone!!! Kevin I have no idea how he did it, but I have an idea that it this effect was created by heat, chemicals, and some physical pounding. I am thinking peroxide. I am going to try it when I get some scrap leather. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
