Members Tina Posted March 22, 2011 Members Report Posted March 22, 2011 (edited) I just got this horse head cover of the bench and I can't wait to get it to granddaughters horse and try it out :-) This time I have been using old Tandy antiquing, more or less as paint due to the fact it makes it look very old if used on untreadted leather. Most details have a acrylic bronze color. I added a concho, some spikes and some other metal details. Ohhh I forgott...Of course there's some of my swirls again *LOL* Edited March 22, 2011 by Tina Quote "He who works with his hands is a laborer.

Members Dmitri Posted March 22, 2011 Members Report Posted March 22, 2011 Once again, I stand in Awe. Your work is absolutely stunning. I will get into the carving one day instead of just building plain items that serve their purpose Now just to find the time to practice. Quote Just back into leather
Contributing Member Crystal Posted March 22, 2011 Contributing Member Report Posted March 22, 2011 That's cool! You have to get some pictures of it on the horse! Excellent job! Crystal Quote Black Dog Custom Leather
mendedbowl Posted March 22, 2011 Report Posted March 22, 2011 Very very nice! but of course, everything you do is beautiful. Wonderful colors and antiquing...but it could really use some more swirls. You've made an amazing champron. now your grand daughter's horse needs full barding. Then you'll have to make her a leather riding costume. So much work! but what a fantastic sight that would be. ken Quote
Members Spinner Posted March 22, 2011 Members Report Posted March 22, 2011 That's pretty darn cool looking. Please post a picture of it on the horse when you get a chance. Quote Chris Three Mutts Customs Leather - http://www.threemuttscustoms.com
Members Tina Posted March 22, 2011 Author Members Report Posted March 22, 2011 ...Now just to find the time to practice. I'm sure you will find it great fun and it does ad interestin details to any object :-) That's cool! You have to get some pictures of it on the horse! Excellent job! Absolutly...I have made an apointment later on this week, lets hope the weather let's me take nice pictures. Wonderful colors and antiquing...but it could really use some more swirls. You've made an amazing champron. now your grand daughter's horse needs full barding. Then you'll have to make her a leather riding costume. So much work! but what a fantastic sight that would be. More swirls??? Are you sure??? *LOL* A full horse costume, that would be something. I wish I had a sponsor of the leather *sighing* That's pretty darn cool looking. Please post a picture of it on the horse when you get a chance. Absolutly, as soon as I can...I did meassure the horse (with pen and paper in the stable) before doing the thingie but it's always nerv wracking before you actually can see it works.
