Members Destrier Posted March 15, 2013 Members Report Posted March 15, 2013 Well, it's officially my first custom order. I've got another one underway (a back strap for a sword) and another one ordered (a Kindle cover) so people must like it... I still see a lot of flaws, but hopefully the next one will be better. In this case the design was drawn up by the customer. 'Ego Voluntas' means 'I Will' in Latin. Quote
Members Cyberthrasher Posted March 15, 2013 Members Report Posted March 15, 2013 LOOK AT THAT DETAIL!!! Quote
Members David8386 Posted March 16, 2013 Members Report Posted March 16, 2013 Very good job, coloring is outstanding. David Quote
Members Cyberthrasher Posted March 16, 2013 Members Report Posted March 16, 2013 What's the width on that again, about 1 3/4" or so? Just trying to get a feel for how small some of that stuff is. Quote
Members Destrier Posted March 16, 2013 Author Members Report Posted March 16, 2013 The cuff is approximately 9.5" by 3.5", the buckles are 5/8", the leather was cut from an unlabeled piece and I'm still getting a feel for the different weights but I believe it's in the 4 oz range. Quote
Members leatherworm Posted March 17, 2013 Members Report Posted March 17, 2013 Very nice. If I were in the market, its something I'd purchase, good detail carving IMO. Quote

Members Lavendara Posted August 26, 2013 Members Report Posted August 26, 2013 That is amazing work! Quote
Members Lavendara Posted August 28, 2013 Members Report Posted August 28, 2013 Now, for something like that you'd have to wet form it, right? What did you use for that step? Quote
Members Destrier Posted August 28, 2013 Author Members Report Posted August 28, 2013 Thank you, Lavendara - I actually didn't form this one, I just cased it for carving. Once the buckles are done up it sits pretty nicely but it still lies flat when undone. At least, it did when I sent it out - it's probably got some shape to it now if it's been worn a lot. Quote
