Another one from Russia with love

Beautiful work! In that first picture, is the background around the roses painted with black dye, or did you use resist on the carving? If so, what kind of resist? (Eg., Super Sheen, Resolene, etc.)

Я говорю Google по-русски! Actually studied Russian in High School. Big Mistake! Have been to Moscow 3 or 4 times in the Early 90s.

 

Очень хорошая работа

Thanks a lot! Glad you like my works! As for the background I used Fiebings Leather Dye and finished it with Kenda Farben Appretto Mild

Благодарю! Многие говорят, что мои работы хорошие, но лично я недоволен, мне ещё много над чем надо работать, особенно в Шеридане. 

Россия в 90-х была в разрухе, сейчас тут всё по-другому))

Я был в Москве в коммунистические времена. Я продал компьютеры Советам. У меня также были времена с КГБ. То были времена!

Your work is beautiful @Lineets!

Fantastic stuff. I like how you used what looks like a backgrounder around the basket weave instead of a cammo....

You do not give enough props to yourself. however that is not a bad thing, that just means that you want to get better. In leather working, there never seems to be a perfect piece. we can always do better in our own work, but do not compare your work to others. only realize your mistakes and learn from them, just like with life.

Keep up the work, a lot of us are self taught, I am myself. never give up if it gives you joy doing it.

look forward to seeing more of your work.
