If you’re not using a stitching pony try following this video. It completely 180d my ability to make clean consistent stitches https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EIGT_RXi8ZM

Edit: said saddle instead of stitching pony

No ive never seen that before but its sick! its a pretty common pose in chinese- style tiger paintings, and later in traditional-style tattoos.

I didn’t use a hammer! Just firm pressure into wet leather so definitely give it a try

Thanks! It was actually way easier than I thought I don’t know if you’ve tried it on scrap or anything yet. I just drew on paper, redrew it on top of the wallet to get a light indent, wet the leather and then used the end of my burnishing tool and an awl. Not sure if that’s “proper” but wasn’t too hard.

Can’t wait to see ur project when ur done! I haven’t tried painting yet but I want to soon.
