faceOdd Report post Posted January 27, 2008 (edited) Thank you! Leatheroo, I was happy to see you here! Although there seem to be quite a few leather mask makers in the world, they don't seem to gather in many of the same places. Are your masks on the Mask Makers Web too? Alex, your wrist bands are lovely! Do you have pictures of your earlier, heavier wrist bands? I tend to like things that are 'too heavy'. Hence the 7-8 oz. masks : ) Kate, your game boards are AMAZING! Do you find time to play chess in addition to all the work that must go into making the board? I hope you're all having a wonderful week-end! I'm taking a break while the dye dries. This is much better than pacing : ) Tammy Edited January 27, 2008 by TCLeathercraft Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hence the 7-8 oz. masks : ) Tammy, thanks for your kind words regarding the wristbands. I didn't take many pictures of my projects when I first started out (including those heavier wristbands), but recently I've been taking pics of every one. I think you mentioned in one of your other posts that you want to start taking more pictures, too... Speaking of pics, please keep posting yours -- you do beautiful work!

Spider Report post Posted January 28, 2008 (edited) I should find out how to make one of these bitch'n masks and wear it when I ride my bike. maybe put some lenses on it to not have to have riding glasses on. You and Roo make some awesome masks. I really like this one. Edited January 28, 2008 by Spider Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
faceOdd Report post Posted January 28, 2008 Hey Spider, Thanks! Maybe you could make something like this: These are in-progress shots, before the chin strap was added, and unfortunately I didn't get finished shots until it was bought and the customer was wearing it. He wears it snowboarding, with a little beanie under it : ) King of the Mountain in his haute coutre helmet! I doubt if my version would offer the protection necessary for riding, but it could probably be built over an actual low-profile helmet. The goggles came from a local Army/Navy surplus. They're inexpensive knock-offs of British Aviators. I'm currently working on a 'tankers helmet' built over an English-style riding helmet, with the velvet removed. If you decide to make a mask, I'm happy to answer any questions you have. Tammy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
