JohnD Report post Posted July 13, 2008 I came across these books this morning. I thought someone might get some use out of them here, as there is a lot of info on design and such that may translate to leather work. http://placidchaos.com/AM/index.php/2006/02/21/andrew_loomis You can download the books one at a time in .pdf or all at once in .rar format, for which you will need Winrar or bitzipper to extract them. For all the folks (myself included) who have trouble coming up with designs to tool, this would also be a good chance to get your hands on a very good resource to help improve your artistic skills for free. Hope this helps. John Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

8thsinner Report post Posted October 3, 2008 On a similar note, tattoo flash patterns often have great animal styles which probably could be put on leather quite easily. I have built up a folder of these which include, japanese demons, tribal, flash, gothic, religion, nature, bondage and a few more... btw, thanks for the extra source, downloading now Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
