OK, so I wasn't happy with the 1st so I decided to work on a 2nd and a 3rd. If you have any questions ask and i will be glad to answer.

I am not going to go through all the steps, but like I said feel free to ask a question or two and I will answer.

So anyway I am kinda wore out on black, so I thought I would do something different. I decided to stain with Mahogany color and add Ostrich accents to it.

I am not one to really like my stuff "pimped out", so hopefully this isn't to much.

What do you guys think? To pimped out? Look ok?

Next steps will be; stitch em, wet form them, dry them and then add some type of finish to it. O and cut the loop holes for the belt...

One is an outside the wasteband for my G19 and the other is a pocket holster for the Ruger LCP.

Thanks for looking! And I appreciate and look forward to your comments....

I like it wish I had the skills to do custom work like that.

I'll take with alligator skin, please! [Tooth]

But seriously, looks good. Not too flashy at all.

Yea, I looked at alligator, shark skin and others. The only reason I did ostrich is because you can buy a piece at Tandy pretty cheap. The others you would have to order and they are pretty pricey. i would like to do one out of lligator and shark in the near future.

Hey thank everyone for the comments! I wasn't feeling so hot about them because I made a few mistakes, the stitching wasn't the best and after looking at the professional ones, mine looked very "amateur".....

So any way after you guys pumping up my ego a bit, I am ready to do a few more!
