Lovely tooling there, great stitching and nice accents with the "dots." That's a lot of work to tool and dye inside the knotwork lines, and it looks great!
The only thing I can say here is that the flat ends, where the wrist and elbow go, are going to dig into your arm. I have some bracers from long, long ago which have the same problem. 
A concave curve to those edges will help avoid that.

That's your first attempt? Do you mean first attempt at bracer or first attempt at leatherwork? Either way nicely done!

Hi, I'm interested in the rivets you used on this, these are exactly the sort of thing I want for my current project. I don't suppose you can tell me where you got them?
THank you kindly
