Welcome to March! We've a lot to get through, so let's get cracking!
New blog update on the website, Achilles on the go for , another collab with , prep, regular orders coming in, and more!
I'm tired already, is it 2026 yet?!

Never say never is not just a Bond film! It's a phrase in common use in the workshop 😆

After a couple of days digging around and tidying the Batcave up from last orders, voila! Found the Achilles folder I thought was a fever dream!

There's a lucky charm client for sure!

Finally we have a website that is pretty as well as functional!

Feedback welcome as always!

25/01/2025

I think I'll make this a regular item on the new website (it's nearly finished, I promise!)

I'm in love with the bandolier with the patches...is this the tv show or film, though? I'm not sure 🤔

Anyway, that's Paul and now introducing Dawn, all ready to take on humanity!

Gorilla Soldier patches on the go today ready to be the finishing touch on a rather spiffing bandolier!

Might rig up a press, properly, and sell as separates, what do you think?

All thawing out, back in the workshop fully, feeling GOOOOOOD about this year!

Today, a ship's wheel, tomorrow a Gorilla, then a mighty warrior or two! I love my clients 🖤

Can't wait to see this whell in the gorgeous deep forrest green leather I got from 💚

Late to the 2025 Party! But we are alive and well again, and plotting the next 12 months of leathery shenanigans!

This month is finishing off a couple of orders that were impacted by everyone being so poorly over the festive break and trying to get the website in some form of working order again.

We are hampered slightly by the current -5 degree weather, but doing what we can, when we can!

Anyway, I hope everyone is having an excellent start to the year, Stay tuned for more, and remember, if it seems like a long journey, every tiny step forward, is less distance to travel.

I've been so busy creating costumes and cosplays for the joy of other folks, that I've neglected my own for too damn long!

Nine years ago I threw together my leather armour version of Prince Nuada from Hellboy II - the golden army.
Seven years since I forgot ital parts of my costume (Comic belt rather than film belt) and still made me feel amazing in my (ongoing) Hellboy!

Nuada has become a bit more decorative over the years, you see it at MCM London each year in case you were wondering why it looks familiar! But the vibes are still there.

I intend to get some cool photos next year, then get someone to photoshop my Hellboy in, maybe a mid fight scene!
What do you think? Good idea or just put to bed and concentrate on new stuff?

Whew! Can finally escape Twitter..
Follow for leathery shenanigans!

Just letting folks know I'm alive!
Didn't realise some of our email addresses have not been coming through, so have been trying to catch up on my breaks, if you've not heard from me yet don't worry, I'm getting there!

I'm eyeball deep in prep and getting last orders finished for the month, so not on my top game admin wise, apologies.

The new workshop supervisor is a bit judgy too....

We have a mutual friend involved in helping this new, fairly local event get off the ground, so have offered ourselves up as tribute to the Gods of cosplay craft!

Come and check out some of our work, Jules's stage talk, "From Cows to Capes - Leather work in cosplay" and grab some tips and advice about this traditional craft.

You can also sign up for their fun cosplay competition here!

BEHOLD! KRATOS RAGNAROK!

To recap...
Derrek asked me to make Kratos's costume from the game, God of War - Ragnarok.

The inspiration for this piece was from the Art of God of War Ragnarok, which shows their own designers' absolutly gorgeous progression of costume decisions.

I asked for a high level of artistic license so that I could really go to town on bringing elements of his journey and character growth into the detailing and design, with a smattering of references to the actual mythological Kratos and a very small easter egg to another, totally different game, that features costumes from GoW!

I think I literally carved a portion of my soul into this commission, and I've never been prouder of myself!
