The official thread for the VonDan’s Leather Panel

Vondan:
I’m going to do a workshop on using leather for cosplay outfits and accessories.  I have not decided what the demo or project will be yet

What would you like to see done bearing in mind we have 2 hours, one for lecture and one for hands on practice?

A few ideas I had

A Naruto Head band in leather and steel (with etching demo)
A Link Vambracer from Twilight Princess

Xaam:
Hey...there are some leather detailings that are on my costum this year that I was just going to reproduce in cloth, but I would gladly offer my services as a model if you would make them for me!  :wink:

show me what the costume loks like, are there picttures of the character on-line


A couple of the people  I am and may do work for said they would swing by my workshop to sashay around and model the work if they don’t have a game tournament scheduled at the same time


They asked if I wanted a Yojumbo and I said yes to model the samurai Armour, I tried to get Kylite to volunteer for it but for some reason he don’t want to.

RemSaverem:
I would think any kind of holster that could hold a weapon that needed to be peacebonded would be popular.

I can make just about any holster or sheath if I can see the weapon to be housed and then get correct measurements AND if I can not barrow for a few days find a toy gun or real sword laying around or make a something close from a block of wood to use in a wet mold.

I used a piece of 2x4 and some closet rod to make the mold for this one, let it dry over night and assembled it an hour before the party.  I have heard of actually wrapping a real gun in saran wrap and suing that when making a holster but no one has let me do that yet.
