Love the tooling: it's neat to see something other than the floral carving whose ubiquitousness has made it boring. On 5/20/2020 at 11:34 PM, Retswerb said: Wow. That crest looks amazing.

I’ve got another crest in the works now and I can’t wait for you to see it. I love doing these types of things. Sculpting the mantle is a lot of fun.

I have about 15 hours in the tooling. Probably another 15 to make the bag. Quote Blackthorn Leather on Etsy • Blackthorn Leather on Facebook

Members NewForestLeather Posted July 4, 2020 Members Report Posted July 4, 2020 The dye work on the crest is spectacular. How do you go about applying dye like this? Or was acrylic used in places? Fantastic work, thanks for sharing. Quote

The color is a combination of leather dyes brushed on and some very fine point Sharpies. There’s three different greens in the tree. The helm is diluted black dye, the mantle has diluted green dye as well as the grass. Quote Blackthorn Leather on Etsy • Blackthorn Leather on Facebook
