This is for a S&W 636 clone in shiny nickel/chrome. I'm not sure how it will turn out yet, I'm calling it GothWestern. It is getting shiny nickel buckles for the belt and holster strap, and I'm not sure how much "bling" the owner will want. I figure a few rivets along the belly of the holster, and at the points on the skirt. I keep hearing that line in the DeadPool movie, "Ease up on the Bedazzler Dude, they're Jeans, not a chandelier".
I want to lean towards white thread, or maybe medium brown. Again, it will depend on the owner, but I really like the contrast of white thread. I also really hate the way "white" thread ends up "dingy grey". I'm starting to think maybe a cotton swab and bleach might help there.
Any suggestions on what I did wrong are appreciated. I'll start with the lettering is rubbish, there is no depth, and the dark brown still comes out looking almost exactly like the medium brown. I know somebody in the dye factory is really just screwing with me, and they are in all reality, the same dye.
Oh, and the border on the holster was supposed to be like something I had seen Al Stohlman do on a full skirt. I shoulda looked at it again, before I tried it, as I did it bass ackwards.
I shouldn't even mention that this was my third belt blank.
