The support one get's at this board is so great and really helps me pushing forward.

Yes John, big stamp-big mallet and big strike.

Thank you Craftsman and Storm!

This purse goest to a girl named Laila at my job. She saw the first rodtube and was sold on a purse in the same colourscheme.

The decorative braids forms a heart if put together, not a flirt from my side but rather a nice touch.

Thank you Colman!

I've been doing the black and red based stuff for a while now and really feel it's such a nice combination that really suits my persona well so it's gotta be sorta my insignia together with the compass star of my makers stamp wich in it's whole has the shape of a eye, so does the website layout do aswell but we'll see if I can keep it that way. New to webdesign so probably need to re-work that in future.

Thanks you Adamant!

This colouring will suit a cue case nicely. Have you seen the rod tube I made with this colour scheme?

the tut is here: http://leatherworker.net/forum/index.php?s...ic=2886&hl=

It has one drawback, when putting on finisg/sealer you get a purple colour in the wet finish wich really shows upon the golden layouts so I have to deglaze golden parts after finishing and a little touch up with new gold dye paint and finally seal those parts again, otherwise the gold gets a purple not so good looking shine.

I've come to call this colourscheme the old heritage.

Tom- the longposter;-)

sweet work tom, i love the color, lacing and the pattern on the back is sharp.

[TomSwede]

Thanks Roo!

The artwork on the back (cross and cornerstones shapes) was actually taken from some small childrens lego (Duplo, I think) and how they look.
