BandidoIrish Report post Posted January 9, 2019 I made this guitar strap for a friend who owns Dreadnought Brewing here in Washington as a "see if I still like leatherwork" project. Turns out I still do! Comments and critiques are more than welcome as I'll be looking for ways to improve! Thanks in advance. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That was the step that scared me most! After I airbrushed the rest of the piece the letters didn't stand out and it just didn't look right. So I used a very thin paint brush dipped in dye and hand painted each edge. I probably went over it three passes each letter? With every brush stroke I was certain I was going to slip and ruin the whole piece! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Texasbootz Report post Posted March 22, 2020 Very cool, creative and professional! Your shading makes it look padded but I gather it’s a single layer of leather. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
