Made this holster for a Lightweight Commander. Leather is tan with white thread and black loops to match the belt. I'm quite fond of the two tone look with the loops.

I see a couple things I'd do better next time, but feel free to pick it apart.

:cheers:

I hope to make some soon. I got some HO leather that's just crying to be cut. Hope mine turns out half as good as the one here.

Chris, that holster is down right gorgeous! I LOVE the tan color. I wish I could get my tan to come out that even and glowing.

Beautiful finish, Chris. The lines are not overdone and it makes it more appealing than something molded so tightly you can read the roll stamp.

The only thing I can see is that the sweat shield doesn't appear to be quite tall enough.
