Artist's Comments

I made myself a bag a while ago.
I mainly intended it to be for daily use, though is fit for LARP aswell. Has a lot of pockets again, and has a lot of storage room. ;P

As always, i must comment on your exceptional skill with leatherwork. Although i would have used beltleather for the strap, but that is a personal choice :)
:icondamaiste:
this is incredible! my friends and I are going to a larp soon, so I've been looking up everyone's leatherwork..

how much did that cost you to make? and how long?
:iconsaellys:
Freaking gorgeous.

Thank you very much. :)
I don't really like the belt very much either.
In fact, when I finished this I wasn't too fond of it at all, but I decided that I liked it quite a lot anyway.
I've a hide of untanned belt leather lying underneath my bed, but I don't have a dye for it, so I just decided to go for the same type of leather in the end. Still trying to think up a way to make it less plain-looking though.
:iconlynfir:
Thanks. :)
I didn't quite calculate how much it costed to make. I'd say that it costs about a half of a cow's hide. In price, that really depends on the quality of leather you use.
I spent about... 3 days I think.

Have fun with your larp! :)
:iconlynfir:
Thank you very much. :thanks:
Nice of you to reply. :)

If you use liquid draincleaner, mixed in water (10 parts water, 1 part cleaner) and paint it onto leather, it will turn brown, and it will look more worn. Remember to wash of the cleaner afterwards with a wet sponge or similar.
To make leather black, put it in water with ironscraps in it. Works well too :)

Now get done, fix your connection and get back online miss ;)
:iconlynfir:
Oh, that's nice! I didn't know that. :D Thanks.
I think I will try that once I get home.

My internet connection is still messing around though. I had 10 minutes yesterday before it killed itself once again. My modem seems to be mocking me, really.
Anyway, there's a guy coming to check the thing today, and I don't think my mom will let him leave before he did his job, so I should be back online in the evening. :P

In the meanwhile I'll enjoy the salvation of having internet here at school.
Shame they blocked the use of msn though.

Hehe, yah well, i have been on a medieval/viking market all weekend, so i have not been online anyways. But now, i am back :)
