Members lomfs24 Posted June 6, 2017 Members Report Posted June 6, 2017 I really like the dragon skin. That is a very unique look. What I am really interested in though, and it's probably pretty simple. One the basket weave one. What did you use to make the rough background. You know, that part that looks like flaking plaster. I have seen that style other places and I love it, something different than the standard background. What tools do you use to achieve that look? Quote

It is a tandy backgrounder I have had for years E294-03. There are several sizes but that is the large one and should get you on your hunt. Quote

Tempe is where I get all things Tandy and they are always polite and helpful. I get leather elsewhere but there is still a bunch of stuff I get from tandy. Quote
Members Fire88 Posted August 10, 2017 Members Report Posted August 10, 2017 I love the look of both of these especially the dragon flesh all scared up. I hope you don't mind me borrowing the idea? Quote

Members plinkercases Posted August 12, 2017 Members Report Posted August 12, 2017 Dragon flesh get another vote. I may have missed I in the previous reading but what is the stamp you use fro the scales or is it a combo of 2+?
