Hi! New in this social media, let me introduce myself:
#leathercrafter specialized in #LARP and #fantasy reenactment, and a selftought #foamsmith. Here you can see a little sample of my usual line, but I work mostly with custom commissions
#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. A belt like a Celtic inspired sword, buckle made in leather being the handle, and painted in silver, bronze and brown. A brown and green sporran with Bilbo's door from LOTR decorating the cover. Three dice bags as dices, a D20 with malachite look and bronze numbers and thread, and two D12, an old bronze w Roman numbers and a blue w futuristic yellow numbers. And three tiny sunflowers, two pendants a beard bead

12 pics, 2022 art summary. First is January, a sith leather belt from Star wars over black robes. February, white winged bracer with blue reflects. March, leather mannequin head used as a mask. April, two Ryvstrad passports in antique leather with a deer head carved inside a shield in the front. May, blue simple bracers with alchemist/astrological signals glowing in the shadows. June, wood and methacrylate magnifying glass shaped as a raven claw with more signals around an eye in the "glass". July, leather round pendant with the texture of a leaf in the center. Aug, steel simulated winged bracer. Sept, fucsia and purple D20 bag with silver numbers and the letters JI, and silver thread. Oct, serpent skin simulated belt, dark yellow at the sides and green at the center. Nov, archery semi-glove in brown and green protection on the index finger. Dec, similar glove, in medium and dark brown, bigger protection and decorated at the wrist with a snake with runes biting its tail around a tree

Collage with several product photos. A winged bracer with iridescent painting simulating the colours of a raven (black with blue, green and violet highlights), three sporran-style belt pouches with shield-shaped covers (simple silver warrior's, red and black heraldic with a griffin and a hippocampus, and a plain brown Viking one), an antiqued bracer with a Viking dragon carving, two belts (a studded brown one with an old gold buckle, and a silver and blue one with dwarf-style borders), selfie wearing a facehugger mask (from Alien), red and gold women's armour (consisting of breastplate, corset, shoulder pads, scarcels, bracers, greaves and winged tiara), detail of a carved dog's paw with textured hair and a triskel on the larger pad, two sash belts (one black and sober and one aged with a barbarian design), and three flowers (a violet iris, a pink and yellow tulip, and a white magnolia)

15 años que se dice pronto! La época en que empecé a descubrir quién era yo realmente... a través de experimentar mucho! A día de hoy echo de menos encontrar cargos vaqueros elásticos en los chinos, no os voy a engañar (esa camisa vaquera la he vuelto a empezar a usar hace poco!)

Foto cortada de grupo donde salgo al lado de otra chica en una estación de buses, pelo algo más largo de los hombros, camisa y pantalones vaqueros, camiseta negra, collar y pulsera de pinchos, colgante grande de acero y gafas de montura claras

The following for #WarriorNun is dedicated and persistent, can fans get #SaveWarriorNun to the top of the trending hashtags? That will definitely bring more attention to the show.

And in the meanwhile, I was painting the decorations of the corset. I have to say, metallic painting means a lot of trust in the process, because look at those awful first layers of golden... Believe me, it was even worst in person xD

First layer of light golden acrylic paint over the black leather, brushstrokes very visible and a layer so thin that looks like very old brass

Third layer of light golden, brushstrokes still noticing, but at least it starts to look a bit more metallic and homogeneous

Fifth layer of light golden, these last two layers applied with sponge so the brushstrokes are almost gone

Show me how you draw armor! 🛡️

Digital painting commission in colors, fully rendered / mimicking traditional textures. It depicts the commissioner's OC, Aetherhis, thigh-up. She's a white young elf woman wearing a fantasy armor, golden and full of jewelry and coins. Her hair is long and dark brown, and she's looking down at a black crystal floating between her palms, turned up, a soft smile on her lips. Behind her, we can see the arms of a Black Spirit (Black Desert Online supernatural entity) - a pair of hands wearing silvery/iridescent metal gauntlets and a black cloak with golden embroidery. The Spirit has the hands near Aetherhis' face, tenderly. Circling around her head, there's a halo of golden stars, mimicking a gold foil texture

Digital commissioned art, mimicking oil painting techniques. A Southeast Asian woman looking to be around her mid 20s/early 30s. Her skin is light tan/ light olive, she has yellow eyes and dark, straight hair a little below her shoulders. She's wearing a full plate silver armor, decorated with engravings of leaves, plants, flowers. She's looking at us, standing still, with a serious / formal expression. She has a long, thin, translucent black veil covering her head; the veil has colorful metal jewelry hanging on it, around her head, covering part of her face.

My depiction of Xena, Warrior Princess and her mare Argo. In my version, Xena still has bright, light blue eyes and straight, chest-length black hair, but she's a lot more muscular, she has a darker/tanner skin tone crossed with all sorts of battle scars and one across her neck, and she's wearing an armor heavily inspired by Macedonian / Alexander The Great type of armor. She's looking off-frame, with a serious, thoughtful, distant expression. Across her waist, she has a Bulgarian-inspired traditional coins. She's standing in a golden wheat field, holding a xiphos sword with one hand, and the other resting on the muzzle of her mare, Argo; Argo is a palomino horse (golden coat, white, curly mane), and is behind Xena, resting her head against Xena's shoulder. The painting is digital, but style and composition and mimicking traditional oil paintings (Bouguereau, especially)

digital art in colors - my versions of Raiden Ei and Mavuika, from Genshin Impact. Ei has pale skin, long dark blue/purple hair in a braid and is wearing a purple and gold samurai armor. Mavuika has golden skin, long wavy hair that mimics flames, and is wearing a leather jacket and corset, black with golden and red details and accessories. She's wearing a necklace and big sun-shaped earrings made of gold. They are standing side by side, very close, staring at each other longingly. They are emanating lightning/electricity and fire energies, respectively, in a supernatural manner because they are gods/god-like beings. #OverloadYuri lmao

Here’s another #Rocktober #Xena quick sketch for day 2 of #drawtober . More ball point pen, a study, not a finished drawing, something to get me thinking about how to draw Gab’s suede coat from The Abyss in action, since I use the same coat as well in my story.

En esta cuenta hoy se va a compartir mucha información referente a la flotilla.

Tenemos que hacer ruido. La gente tiene que saber lo que pasa. No los perdamos de vista. Si el ejército israelí quita las cámaras, nosotros miraremos más.

Todos los ojos sobre la flotilla hoy.

I was a bit in a rush, so obv my brain decided the strap design I had wasn't the propper and I needed a new cooler one... So yep, let's complicate this even more! What's life without challenges?

Notebook paper with four different designs for the ornated part of the straps that goes riveted to the armor. The four of them are three rivets design, one with a clover shape, the second reminding a fleur de lis, the third is the original convex curved triangle design used in my first armor, and fourth is a concave curved triangle

The chosen design is the fleur de lis shape, whose pattern is shown here already cut and over one of the red armor straps to compare (same size, more complicated perimetre)

Pattern of the buckle attachments with the same shape but double, and three leather scraps with 12 pieces marked

The 12 leather pieces for the buckles already cut and the border traced, with one of the buckles that will be used in the armor

Uf, cómo os entiendo, yo fui de viaje a Londres y la mitad de la comida me la llevé de España, y allí no me atreví a pisar un solo restaurante... La intolerancia a la fructosa también suena aún a chino, y las pocas veces que salgo a comer, llamo al sitio con antelación para asegurarme que no problem
