Windrider30 Report post Posted March 21, 2016 After two days, 2 and half hours of tooling alone on the lid the box is done, using imgur as there are 11 photos http://imgur.com/gallery/MfVlb Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grey Drakkon Report post Posted March 21, 2016 Awesome! Have you thought about gluing down the lid to a smaller cut piece of leather/board so there's a lip? If you use a thin board that could get rid of that wave, if you don't want it. Again, super nice box, and great tooling! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Windrider30 Report post Posted March 21, 2016 hmm will have to give that a try thanks Grey the botom already has a nother piece of 8 oz glued to it so that it fits inside the box nicely the wave was just from tooling the leather i think. Have set the price for it at 80 i think that is more then fare hell the conco on top cost me a fair bit of money hehe Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grey Drakkon Report post Posted March 21, 2016 If you're posting it for sale, I would either digitally alter the background so there's no distractions, or take another picture of it with a sheet or something draped behind it to make it stand out more. It's a nice looking piece, so it deserves to have a scene all to itself. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Windrider30 Report post Posted March 22, 2016 OH yeah these photos were just to show the board i have plans to change the background massively lol and a few other shots such as having some chainmail jewellery inthe box as well as peaking out when the lid is "closed" kind of picture.

Grey Drakkon Report post Posted March 22, 2016 I'd haze up the background by 50%, right now the gears are a little too competitive with the ones on your box. I'd also crop the right hand image so the bottom doesn't have quite so much empty space. Otherwise, very nice! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
