More Hawaiian Tooling

[JW]

So I decided to try my hand at some more Hawaiian tooling, this time I drew the design myself. In comparison to the valet tray I did, it is minuscule. The only reason it is so irregularly shaped is because I drew for this particular piece of scrap leather. Everything here was done with a SK, 1 backgrounder, and 2 bevelers.

Let me know what you guys think, thanks for checking it out.

Great job I think you're on to something there!!

@YinTx Thank you!

 

@kiwican Thanks kiwi!

 

@JD62 Thanks, I'm trying something a little out of my wheelhouse.

Very cool.  I like the way it goes from flat to 3D with the beveling.  BTW, don't know if you are in Hawaii, but if so, prayers to you and yours.

Unique! Great design!

Makes me think about imitating such a decoration on a shave kit.

[Bob Blea]

Very neat design.  I like it.

@Tugadude Thanks, the beveling really alters the look and feel of the sketch. I'm not in Hawaii, but I have a lot of family and friends out there, I appreciate the prayers.

 

@LederRudi Thank you, the design is fairly simple to draw, it's very geometric. The only hurdle, as I think with all drawing, is getting the proportions down.

 

@Bob Blea Thanks Bob!

That is really cool work dude, I especially like the basket weave on the left and right bottoms of the piece.

Really top work on the beveling. Looks very professional.

Any tips on how you did it?what tools did you use for it?

A great looking piece.  It looks like it could be a sampler of different designs.  Many would make great border treatments.
