Faun Mask

Here's one that I'd been planning for a while: A faun/goat/satyr mask, featuring some hand-tooled bracers. The horns are attached with a small amount of stitching and wire to keep them in place. Pardon the jeans.

Medieval Leather Belt (Black, Studded)

Here's my first medieval leather belt!

This is my first project that's been properly burnished, polished, and dyed. This is as professional as I can get. I was wearing one of my traditional Pakistani kurtas when I discovered that it could be turned into a tunic if you wore a belt over it. So all I needed was a belt, and since I didn't want to buy one, this seemed like the best alternative.







 

Celtic Leather Knots

Here's a preview of something that will be coming soon. I learned how to style leather, and my first project was Celtic knots. In the near future, they will be put into a medieval belt.


 
 
Right now, it's about the size of my neck, so I guess it's a choker.

Scarecrow

Ever wonder what I do with all the old leather scraps I collect? Well, here's your answer: I put them into a mask! This was made with old pieces of leather sewn together with thick thread.


 

 
 
 
Here is some close-ups of the stitching

 

 

Dagoth

Here's a new design - Dagoth. It's made from 4 main pieces of leather, has 4 buckles that buckle onto a piece in the back. The name comes from the antagonist in Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind (even though they look nothing alike). I am the model.

 



 

 

 

 

 

 
 
 

Assassin Mask

Here's another new design - Assassin Mask (in red). This was made by sewing a piece of tooling leather onto some upholestry leather.

 
Those are some Nepalese Kukris, the same used by the Ghurkas.

 



 

 

Feral leather mask

Here's a new leather mask - Feral. This one goes back to my simple designs without any buckles or lenses or sewing.

 

 

 
 
 


It was made specifically with this sword in mind
