You know a great way to get the dragonscale pattern with a bit less work, would be to use an "English point" strap punch. It's got a rounded 'v' shaped head, as long as you don't punch all the way through, it let's you get a great scale pattern. It's what I used for the bracers I made. Also, a stitching pony would really help with some of the leather sewing, and I've found it also helps when stitching the signatures together in book binding. Your book making videos got me into book binding which also led into leather working, so thank you very much. I'd love to see more of both the bookbinding, and leatherwork videos.

Tips for an even dye on leather. 1. Make sure the leather is fully dry. 2 use a wood block (sanding block can be used) and wrap it with a paper towel. Apply the dye to the paper towel when on the block. Then use that to apply the dye to the leather. Don't spray or use a paintbrush or it won't come out even. On something that is supposed to look organic, I would use all three methods. Start with the block, then spray on where you want slightly darker, while the dye is still wet used a brush to feather out the edges around the sprayed areas. This can give a more organic look to the dye wothout having areas that are too dark. Hope this helps for future projects.

How do you think a foam craft roller would do? Or even a (new) kitchen sponge? Dyeing isn't something I've had a lot of experience with, as I usually just oil the piece and that's it. What do you reckon?
@seangere96985 жыл бұрын
@@TheMurlocKeeper the problem with sponges is they absorb a lot of dye, so you would end up with way more dye in the sponge then needed to dye your leather and end up wasting it as you wouldn't want to ring it out and put it back in with your clean dye. I'm not sure about the craft roller as I haven't used them before. You could run into the same problem as the sponge but as I said I haven't used them before so I don't know what they are made out of. The one thing that I found that works great is using a rubber sanding block and folding a paper towel a couple times and placing the ends into the groves on the block. This holds the towel in place and gives you plenty of room so you have less chance to get the dye on your hands, also I recommend using rubber gloves whenever you use dye or you will have coloured hands for days. Hope this helps.

Hey Martina, Hansi, I have 2 questions and 2 suggestions. Questions: 1) Can I base 2 OCs (Original Characters) off of the 2 of you? 2) If so what do you want them to be? I was thinking you, Martina be a elf, witch hybrid or something like that. Hansi could be a human with clear sight that let's him see the supernatural clearly. Suggestions: I noticed you don't upload as often anymore. I'm not sure why but I thought it might be having no ideas. So here's my 1st suggestion: Look back at your past projects. You've made multiple designs for each project. Yet you only make 1 of them and never revisit the project to make another. So you could go back and make another design. You could make new designs too. You've learned a lot since most of your projects. So maybe go back and do another with the new skills you've learned. Your magic wand and magic staff for example. Here's my 2nd suggestion: Mix the things you've done. I've never seen you make a figure for your Dioramas. You've printed or bought them. I understand they're small so many make their tools or something. Like a magic staff or large shield from resin or something. Or maybe make a magical Diorama that has a figure trapped or sealed in a resin crystal. Or make a set. A Diorama, a painting, and maybe tools. Tools: Weapons, armor, jewelry, clothes, and a book. Life sized armor for a male, a female, and maybe a pet. Same with weapons, jewelry, and clothes. An the book could have info about creatures or something. An I don't mean just make the book. I mean draw and write the information. Make a world of your own.

It looks amazing and really professional! I wonder, for leather pouches like the ones on the front, can you mix up the type of leather and use a soft leather for the sides of the ‘box’ to make the space soft and foldable? The outside panel could still be hard for a armory/metal look. Then they would have that pocket look? Idk anything about leather working to be honest. Just thinking about the aesthetics.

Technically, yes, you can mix up different leather types. There's no hard and fast rule here, lol! The "soft" leather you refer to is called chrome leather, because of the way it is tanned. It makes for a very soft, supple leather. However, it usually comes pre-coloured, and cannot be shaped or stamped in any way like what was shown in this vid. (unless it is done in the factory first, then it can have other fancy textures and colours applied to it) That stuff is made from something called veg-tanned leather. It comes quite stiff, but as you can see, it can be wet moulded, and will readily take a dye well, as it hasn't really been finished with anything, so it's very porous. Does this info help? I'm such a crafting nerd sometimes...sorry. :P

WOW! This is so amazing! Your videos give me so much inspiration to go and do my own projects like this! I don't have much experience with leather, but watching your videos gives me an idea on where to start!

Ive been wanting to do this for so long! Ive recently tried one of your tutorials on creating your own spell book. Not as awesome as yours but it was so much fun!
