Members Matt Alsaker Posted August 7, 2012 Members Report Posted August 7, 2012 I posted my first attempt at airbrushing a couple weeks ago. I made a few adjustments to the holster design and how I use the airbrush based on feedback. Here's my most recent attempt. The holster is for a Glock 17.

Contributing Member JLSleather Posted August 7, 2012 Contributing Member Report Posted August 7, 2012 Looks like a pretty steady hand! Attaching a couple of designs that were painted [only], no tooling. These were done with a fairly inexpensive airbrush and some practice. Quote "Observation is 9/10 of the law." IF what you do is something that ANYBODY can do, then don't be surprised when ANYBODY does.
Contributing Member JLSleather Posted August 7, 2012 Contributing Member Report Posted August 7, 2012 These bags were done to show colors available (seems it's easier for some to say 'I want mine this color red', or whatever), and to display the style of the bag. They are deliberately NOT so very detailed. For inspiration and some REAL leather coloring, I recommend Anet's work! Quote "Observation is 9/10 of the law."

Leather work itself is hard enough, and you have to go and show your excellent airbrush skills. Haha! No fair. All kidding aside, I really like what you've done with blending those two skills together. Quote Ingle Gun leather

I believe on his website he refers to the holster style as the "pancake", but in the pattern pack he calls it the "hugger". I use the same construction methods he lays out in the pattern pack, but modified the back plate and holster to fit my Glock 17. I also made a few adjustments to the design some it was exactly how I wanted it. Quote http://www.alsakercustomleather.com/ https://www.facebook.com/AlsakerCustomLeather?ref=hl
