Hi everyone!
This is the final installment of my Dune rebinding project, and I've pulled out all the stops to really make this book something special! I'll be upgrading the plain endbands I wove in Part 2 with German braided leather endbands, which are in keeping with my original vision of mixing a variety of historic bookbinding styles into this binding. I then take on the challenge of hand-tooling the leather on all five panels of the wrap-around cover, incorporating some seriously Dune-inspired elements, and then embellish it with some genuine 24-carat gold leaf. And that conspicuous blank circle on the front flap? Well, that will be getting it's own special treatment with a hand-crafted medallion, so be sure to watch until the end!
This is a project I've wanted to tackle for a long time, and it has proven to be both demanding and deeply rewarding. I have really been able to hone my skills, and I've learned a whole host of new ones as well, and I'm delighted that so many of you have been there with me through the whole thing. Thank you all for your likes, comments, and direct support!
I will be back with more tips, tutorials, and feature projects, so consider subscribing to not miss out.
Until next time, cheers!
Dennis
