Members Josh Ashman Posted April 3, 2015 Members Report Posted April 3, 2015 8 oz HO. Dip dyed in Fiebings saddle tan cut about 50% with alcohol then rubbed down wih medium brown antique and topped with 50/50 M&G/water. Quote
Members Dwight Posted April 3, 2015 Members Report Posted April 3, 2015 I'd joke with you Josh because you made it wrong handed (as opposed to right handed) but that would be the only thing I found that would make me not want it. Looks really good, . . . but then again, . . . 1911's and saddle tan are a couple of my favorites anyway. You certainly have much more patience than I do, . . . that tooling is about 3 times my attention span, . . . and it looks really good to me. May God bless, Dwight Quote If you can breathe, . . . thank God. If you can read, . . . thank a teacher. If you are reading this in English, . . . thank a veteran. www.dwightsgunleather.com

Members ryankim3612 Posted April 4, 2015 Members Report Posted April 4, 2015 Josh you are a true artist. Diddo on the stitching too. Thank you for posting Quote Practice tollerance. Learn from your mistakes. Treat people good. Appreciate what'cha got. Forgive.
Members Paramedic04 Posted April 6, 2015 Members Report Posted April 6, 2015 Looks awesome! I'm a little biased as that's my EDC platform... there's just something about a 1911 in a leather holster that I can't get away from. Quote
Members Josh Ashman Posted April 6, 2015 Author Members Report Posted April 6, 2015 Thanks folks! I like that stitch pattern too but I can't take credit for it. I think I lifted the idea from Colthammerless or maybe it was BHPshooter. I imagine there are lots of folks out there that do it, it does work out pretty well. Have a great day, Josh Quote
Contributing Member JLSleather Posted April 6, 2015 Contributing Member Report Posted April 6, 2015 Mr. Stohlman would be glad to see people still using those old designs. I've seen it done a number of ways, but you've made that design look good AGAIN. 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.
