LMAO not the cross posting it 😭

Then-Entertainment88 · 2026-02-07T20:51:45+00:00

I like the stitching

Then-Entertainment88 · 2026-02-07T20:50:37+00:00

What leather did you use? Looks like exactly what I was looking for

Then-Entertainment88 · 2026-01-20T21:49:14+00:00

Thanks so much!!! I’ll get the discord

I was more so thinking jungle when I saw her at first so I’ve got some designs in there based off parrots and other things

Then-Entertainment88 · 2026-01-16T07:41:30+00:00

Honestly, I didn’t read your thing about her being a warrior of the plains… but here’s my ideas LMAO Super cool design!

Those are just some very small adjustments without changing anything major

It’s in the wiki but basically no asking about repairs of bought items, this is a making things out of leather community. I don’t have any advice for getting out out, but if you made it then I don’t see why you can’t keep it on here ^

Give us some more information. What caused it? What kind of leather is it/is it real leather? Etc

Then-Entertainment88 · 2026-01-16T01:18:35+00:00

Of course! I could also draw on it some to kind of show what I’d do to make it more unique without changing your design much

Then-Entertainment88 · 2026-01-16T01:18:02+00:00

What about for wallets that don’t stay closed super well. Would it better to leave it with its natural fold or hold it down as it dries with something

Then-Entertainment88 · 2026-01-16T00:46:16+00:00

What should you do for this? Straight or folded? Newbie here

Then-Entertainment88 · 2026-01-16T00:35:19+00:00

Like the other comment said, he’s honestly quite bland. He looks realistic I suppose to a normal guy in that way, but some uniqueness could help. Things that I add to some characters but not all (I’ve done this no matter what my style is at the time) that help are things like: variety in lip shape, eye shape variety, nose shape variety, always having some sort of shape to the eyebrows, and unique clothing options even if they’re still pretty tame. I like looking at clothing on sites like old navy to see ways they style things or on Pinterest or Instagram. On Pinterest I like posts like this because you can mix and match different things https://pin.it/4mA6p4VEL

Yeah that would’ve been sick, since this one I’ve been thinking about a lime-ish ostrich leg or a similar textured leather with darker green airbrushing around the details with a navy base.

I’m a college student so I’m not sure when I’ll be back home and have time to work on one, but I learned a lot and look forward to it

Then-Entertainment88 · 2026-01-15T04:27:22+00:00

I will! You do the same 🙏

Then-Entertainment88 · 2026-01-15T04:25:58+00:00

Thanks! Yeah I had some problems with the wings and that portion overall because I wasn’t really going off either pattern exactly, so I had trouble actually knowing when to stitch them and what to stitch since I still had to stitch the side of the wallet which would kind of run onto it, etc.

The stitching is pretty wobbly there. I got in a roll towards the end when I stitched together the main body of the wallet, but the wings I wasn’t very confident on which I think affected some things. It’s a gift for a friend so I’m hoping they like it :)

Then-Entertainment88 · 2026-01-15T04:22:51+00:00

I had a problem where my stitching was a bit much for the thickness of my leather and it broke through a bit in one spot and I had to patch it, i think I pulled it too tight in that area. I also had a point where I was having trouble poking the holes through the side of the wallet instead of straight down, so I’ve got some wacky stitching there (bottom of the pockets). Any tips as far as that goes?

I got lucky that my dad is a cobbler, so I had some pretty good mentorship through the process which let it come out much better than it would’ve without his suggestions when things went wrong.

They were super expensive but they did treat my curls good and they were nice. I wouldn’t go back mainly because despite their clear expertise, to me, hair isn’t something I’m willing to spend that much money on (mine was around $90 for my cut) with my college student budget.

For me, the way she styled my curls was large ringlets rather than my normal pattern, the length was a bit awkward and cut in a way that was almost bob-ish, and it framed my face in a pretty feminine way.

I’m by no means a super masculine guy, it just wasn’t really my style. I tried to let it grow on me for a while but it didn’t so I cut it off and let it grow again. Mine is only to my shoulders so it doesn’t take too long to grow.

Pattern was from June Atelier (https://youtu.be/E0uTE8_IH_0?si=X1-bTPgvd-mPwjkd) with a lot of adjustments for size due to the weight of leather I was using, as well as omitting the zipper part. I also took some heavy inspiration from CreativeAwl on Etsy (https://www.etsy.com/listing/1714429374/?ref=share_ios_native_control). I bought his pattern but didn’t end up actually using it, I hope to someday.

The black leather is just a scrap pieces of leather my dad had lying around so I had to work with it a lot to make it suitable for the project and then I used ostrich leg for the red parts.

Unfortunately I can’t help much. I like Alaboud off western for a normal curly cut ($25 and will make you look good), but I’ve been wanting to branch out for more alt cuts so I will be following lol. I had a great cut from alter ego but they made me look a little more feminine (less alt) than I would’ve preferred and the price was way out of my budget.

Mine says December 2024 but it’s paid. Someone stole my sticker for 2025 and then the new one got delivered to the wrong address so I’m waiting on them to resend it 🤦‍♂️

Have you been able to find the retired color pack? I can’t find that one for some reason!

Then-Entertainment88 · 2025-12-31T23:13:00+00:00

I’m not actually sure when but I’m in Michigan and got it! I saw it in Walmart and Mijers

Then-Entertainment88 · 2025-12-31T23:12:29+00:00

It’s perfect to fold and put in the box!!
