How I made an Elven Helm out of LEATHER

I had very little leatherwork knowledge before this video. I am low wiser and better for having seen this video. Also here from Jill Bearup.

That's really impressive! I'm glad I discovered your channel.

[@Buster-Sharp]

I'm happy Jill gave you a shout-out and now I'm 106. I've watched a lot of videos on how to be a TH-camr and having seen half of your videos at this point I see only one peace of advice I'd like to give you. This is not a complaint and I'm far from an expert, but I'd like to see your channel grow and the advice I got the most mostly from TH-camrs who made like Mat-Pat, it is that the person you see in their videos is them 110 to 120%. Be your self, but turn it up a little. When I do VO I do it imagining that I'm talking to a small group of friends from different backgrounds who would get my humor and I'm trying to make them smile if not laugh. I bet in no time you'll get better than me at it and make me look bad in more ways by comparison 😆

I agree. Her voice is smooth and relaxing, but her delivery could use just a skotch more enthusiasm. Otherwise the presentation is masterfully done.

[@RHCole]

You get a ring of the bell from me! Amazing work.

You really seem to have a great skill in leather, this and your Aragorn stuff look really good! If you ever made a video about what started you onto this area of craft, I’d be eager to watch it
