Every time you post...i can not help but drop my jaw slightly. your work is always looking great, and a positive outlook on leather working. I, like probably many....MANY other here hope to achieve what you have with your skills.

Thanks, bud.  It wasn't too long ago that I had those same feelings about people's work I saw here.  I am always willing to help if I can so feel free to ask questions!

well, you have been doing this for a long time....it's experience! im sure at some point in my life I will have the same mindset as you, however....almost all of us here have the artist mindset, where we are our own worst critic.

@immiketoo Where the carving is most pronounced, in the cheeks and nose and forehead etc, do you fill the back with anything?

Kindest regards

Yes, a sculpted leather plug fills the void.

You tellinge you only started leather work 6 years ago? Or that you only started carving 6 years ago?

Either way, your embossing is beyond any others' I have seen around here. (No offense anyone).

I always drool over your stuff.

I'm not paying 80 bucks for a belt!!! It's a strip of leather. How hard could it be? 4 years and 3 grand later.... I have a belt I can finally live with.

Stitching is like gravy, it's only great if you make it every day.
