Members cfleatherwork Posted January 2, 2021 Members Report Posted January 2, 2021 I have been doing leatherwork for about 2 years, and taking it serious and selling my work through Facebook/Instagram for about a month. I am 16 years old, and have not had much guidance in this hobby (other than Facebook groups and some YouTube videos) so I have been figuring things out on my own. Criticism and advice would be appreciated, as well as encouragement and positivity. Also, these are my most recent sheaths. Thanks in advance!! Quote
Members JayEhl Posted January 11, 2021 Members Report Posted January 11, 2021 I am by far not an expert and still consider myself a noob but from I can see: The good: I like the rustic brown; it's a classic color The improvement needed: The belt holes aren't straight. Maybe some more sanding? The original outline of the 'z' is coming through from where you traced it in. Maybe you spread your resist out too far? If not that and you haven't applied an acrylic finish on it yet you could go back with more dye? Overall it looks better than my first stab, or even my second stab at a similar design. (pun intended.) Keep poundin'! Quote
