Hi! New in this social media, let me introduce myself:

#artvsartist #leather #leatherwork #propmaker #artisan
Collage of 9 pics. At the center, a woman with leather black choker shaped as a shirt collar. Around: picture of a green, yellow and red stegosaurus pencil case, almost front view. A bunch of leather flowers: magnolias, lilies, roses, tulips, orchids, with different colours and effects, realistic and fantastic. A leather dice bag with a D20 shape, marbled painting effects in white and blues, grey thread, golden carved numbers and a dice with two barnacles carved and painted in gold too. A chakram and a rapier hanging on a stick, made of foam and painted simulating old steel.

The colours of the #Galiza flag in a marbled pattern, reminding our wild and storming shores. The typography inspired on the Castelao style from the Rexurdimento era. The golden memory of the Roman mines in Gallaecia. And the barnacles, symbol of this famous seafood land
Wip of the stitching of the dice sides, only 6 sides attached and the rest piled on a cutting mat Closer pic of the dice-shaped bag, the two sides that work as the lids on front and the strap closed with a golden stud in one of the sides

Working on Christmas ornaments this weekend. I usually make a dozen or so to give to friends and family. Left to right is my progress so far!
A large snowflake made of intertwined bent paper. A smaller snowflake of the same design but made with a slightly floppy brown leather. The edges of many of the strips are hastily painted gold. A third snowflake, of a stiffer red leather which looks a bit neater than the other two

Owl feathers earrings. This was a present I made for the "invisible friend" for my friend Clara (La Orfebre Errante) a year and a half ago. It's not that bad for a first prototype, right?
#art #leather #leathercraft #handmade
Two leather feathers attached to earrings silverware and hanging from a black metal bar. They are painted in beige with medium brown horizontal stripes, and the hairs are a bit ruffled Same feather earrings laid on a mauve fabric Collage of three pics. First, the leather moulded and textured, but unpainted. Second and third, them recently painted but without the earring silverware attached

Sunflowers for ears and beards. Earrings and beardbead for
Uri and Lady Lythene leather wedding (3 years anniversary) last year. This order made me realise I really enjoy making tiny winey flowers and being asked of to make a wedding gift of always a touching experience
#art #leathercraft #handmade
Two pics. The one above are three 4cm leather sunflowers, yellow and brown . The one below shows the back side of the sunflowers, the leather piece attached for the leather bead, and two small straps for the ear hangers Four pics. The first is an ear selfie and a vegetal paper with the pattern draw to compare the size. The second is a piece of leather with the petals traced, a small hole between the beginning of each petal, and the superior half of the petals cut already. The third is the three sunflowers' pieces already cut. The four shows the backside of two flowers, one without the skived borders and one with them skived Four pics. The first shows the front side of two flowers, one flat and the other already moulded and shaped. The second is a detail pic of the moulded flower. The third are the three flowers painted, one assembled, one with the pieces separated and frontsided and the third separated and backsides. The fourth pic is with the three flowers assembled and painted

I'm a very distracted and forgetful and messy person, so there are a bunch of pieces of mine dispersed randomly around the house. And sometimes I just get aware of one of them and get caught by surprise... and most of times I start laughing my ass off like an stranger would do paying me a visit XD
Pic of the leather mimic chest totally surrounded by Shein packages and standing on a multifunction printer on the floor. My first thought entering my bedroom and looking at this was "Look at this chunky boy, living his best life, getting to be the storage guardian and munching so many different things. Lol how content and satisfied he looks! I love you, guy!" My collection of swordbelts rolled up and piled one of top of another, the first Celtic-inspired one, the Xena one, the LoTR and the Warrior Nun, the setting sun hitting sharply from the side, accentuating strongly the volumes and the metallic shines and shadows. They are set on a shelf, with lots of books, envelopes, boxes, tools and other random stuff

October 2-4th is only 10 months, or about 330 days away... but who is counting, haha. Living in the Midwest I have never made it to an event, but Xenites are still going strong 30 years later.

I'm going to wait until tomorrow to retouch (if needed), but this would be the result of the #WarriorNun belt buckle. I'll probably leave it as it is and tomorrow I'll rivet the strap and take some more pics
#art #leather #leathercraft #sword #belt
Pic of the cruciform sword handle (from the series Warrior nun) made in leather, with several layers glued and sanded together to make a realistic volume, and painted in shades of silverly bronce with a lot of little decorations along all the piece. 18 cm long Pic of the same piece, slightly inclinated to see the pommel better and the metallic shining

Hey guys! I'll be needing 3 client reviews and 5 more followers to get verified on @vgen.co. For now I have opened some some pixelart character commissions. Anyone interested in some pixel art of your fav character or a Pokémon trainer commission? Sharing is appreciated too! vgen.co/pipasdefrani...

The Xena belt is practically done. I'm painting the Warrior nun's buckle and I'll hole and rivet them at once (I hope) tomorrow 🥺
I was about to add more dirt and some green oxid, but I just liked it the way it is now
#art #leather #leathercraft #xena #belt
Handle of the Xena sword made from several layers of leather glued and carved and sanded. Riveted with silver rivets instead of paua shells and painted in aged bronze/gold and simulating brown lace Same Xena sword handle from another light angle, and with the blade leather strap that completes the whole belt. The strap is bent at the middle in all its length and painted in aged iron, with the signature stamp at the base of the "blade"

E18 took my breath away. Absolutely one of my favorite episodes of any show, ever! Seeing G become a playwright made me SOB! Seeing X back in that fucking cross destroyed me! G decimating the loom was so badass lover girl! The last scene though, the simple “hi” had me Kim K crying! I LOVE THEM!

You have no idea how many pics I took today, but they don't look really good with artificial light, so you'll have to wait to the big deal until they are totally finished. You can have an idea anyway with these ones.
And yeah, once again: THIS IS LEATHER AND ONLY LEATHER. NO WOOD, NO METAL. Thanks
Close pic of the hilt/buckles on my desk, the tones of the metallics closer to the real ones, one more golden and one more bronze Close pic of the blade/straps rolled up together so the difference is also more evident here, especially the darker fullers on the longer one

I'm revisiting teaching myself how to sculpt with leather. I love how malleable leather can be. #maker #leathercraft #handmade #sculpture
A work bench with modeling tools and various pieces of sculpted leather. There is an oak leaf in the upper left corner, a sunflower in the upper right corner and below this are groups of damp petals and leaves that will eventually be placed together to form a rose.

Heavy week already indeed (and just monday passed!). I'll be content if I can stitch the remaining pieces of the lid before weekend (lateral "metal" bands and horns). But I REALLY need to rest soon or this is going to go out of control (this is my health xD)

Front pic of the lid of the chest on top of the inner part of the body/box. Both lateral "metal" bands are stitched Back pic of the lid of the chest on top of the inner part of the body/box with all the "metal" pieces on this side stitched

The book is finished. At first, I was going to add embroidery to the corners too, but I think it looks good as it is.
Dunno if she’s still here but… thanks to @monografic.bsky.social for letting me use her halo illustration for the endpapers 🫶🏼

This episode was HEAVY! Also though, what an insanely good metaphor for the dangers of ego!

Superb acting, badass chariot race, Xena trying to drown an archangel?!

S6 is lit! 😜🤣
