Deadlance Report post Posted January 22, 2014 Since I'm new around here, I thought I'd post a few shots of the things I make. Critiques, comments, complaints... all welcome.... you won't hurt my feelings... I started leatherworking in May 2012. I have had absolutely no training other than what I have found in bits and pieces on youtube. Almost everything I do / know is self taught and just figured out the good ole' fashion hard way. I create my own patterns from scratch for everything I make. I use lots of pieces from thrift shops, craft stores, yard sales, etc. I go through a lot of brass and aluminum sheeting... I have used Arduino computer chips to control LED's and make things glow or change color (The alchemist bracer has an arduino) More shots... since the upload amount is limited...

capretta Report post Posted January 24, 2014 (edited) Really like the paint on the "burn" box. All around very imaginative stuff and well made, but probably a bit much for me to wear down the pub on a friday night!

Deadlance Report post Posted January 24, 2014 Really like the paint on the "burn" box. All around very imaginative stuff and well made, but probably a bit much for me to wear down the pub on a friday night! Haha yeah. The dye on the "burn" box is all done with eco-flo pro waterstain. I used red, yellow, and black to make various shades, and used my finger to apply all the color to the leather. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
