I love it.  Creature from the Black Lagoon is probably my all time favorite B movie. Lits of other great iconic figures. Too cool.

Thanks everyone! Sofaspud, I sometimes feel like the Creature, like maybe we are distant relatives or something? 

So here's an interesting thing that happened...

I attended an investors dinner party a few weeks back. I got to talking to this guy and I ask him if he walks his dog down a certain street, as I think I recognize him. He asks where I live and I tell him. "No kidding," he says, then proceeds to tell me that he owns the house on the row of houses above me. "You know the previous owner committed suicide in your garage, right? Right at the work station. He dropped his wife off at pilates, and did it in the garage. I'm part of the sheriff's posse. It took us a week to clean it up." 

Before spending most of my time in the garage, at the work station, I used to draw butterflies and baby bunnies.

Some other details on the backside and the strap paired with my Chet Atkins Country Gentleman.

Thanks! I really like the way those teeth turned out too. Wicked. I don't know if I can ever recreate them? Sometimes you just get a little lucky with stuff like that. I tried something new, using the lifter tool I have on the sides of the mouth and really like the way it turned out. It looks like it's grinding it's teeth.

Chet was THE man with strings, and I think you are the man with a swivel knife!

That is some amazing work.  Love the monkey!

Thanks! I had a few of those monkeys through my early adulthood. Then I got married.

That's a really nice compliment. Never thought I'd be mentioned in the same sentence as that legend! I love leatherwork.
