Jeb’s black bastard

Jeb wanted another belt, I dont know, i think his others shrank or some such shit like that. Either way, he wanted a new belt,  a black belt. I have made it known to my friends beacuse they dont pay me crap, that the least I want is to make the shit that I want when they come a calling. Well you can guess how that works out, heh, not in my favor. I get to work for peanuts AND i get to do their bidding. nice, lucky me.

Anyway – I dont like working in black, it soaks up detail, it fades to funky colors and in general, leather looks a frig load better when it is in the browns/reds palette. So as it runs out, Jeb wants a triple black belt, black thread, leather and lining. Nice. So that’s what i did.

Customer first, yea

So Jeb writes me:

First let me say that the belt is a fine piece of leather crafting
and it even fits! Your attention to detail is impeccable, truely looks
nice. So even if the job at hand is not one you would prefer to do,
the craftsman inside aspires to do a quality job. So stop being a
whiney bastard.
BTW how’s the dagger? cut anything with it yet?
love and respect
