The way I gasped when I not only saw the thumbnail, but saw it's a tutorial! I've been wanting a bag like this for years and about 2 years ago I started working with leather. I am ABOLUTELY making this!
Well, guess it's time to learn how to work leather This is genuinely gorgeous!! Thanks for the tutorial, it is the first time I've ever seen a video of yours but you seem so nice and helpful, keep up the good work!
theres something so excellent about this concept, i cant believe ive never seen a beetle bag before... it all makes so much sense ! 😵💫 i had no idea i needed this
First channel I've seen a thumbnail and instantly subscribed. I'm female and hate bags. I always have and i wore combat jackets and trousers to have enough pockets for my stuff. This could change my mind. It's beautiful. I would wear it empty!!
I can so see a character from my favorite show being enamored with wanting a bag like this to carry his ammo! The other bags you've made are so creative! Some of them would be so much fun and cute to carry out in public! You have a recognizeable fanciful, yet rustic style with your work. If this is a hobby you'd persue as a business venture you'd get so many customers! Can't wait to see what you make next! Subbed!
Thank you very much! Be sure to only put BUGshots in that ammo pouch :D This is a hobby I do as a littel business adventure of mine by selling the digital patterns of all my creations :)
I am a Monster Hunter fan, and I've always wanted to make my favorite weapon, Insect Glaive. I had never found a tutorial for the bug I really liked, but now I have somewhere to start! thank you!
As a craftsman myself, I absolutely love watching you work. I'm wondering how this design would translate into a sportbike tail bag for work commuting. Maybe put an opening in the mouth for a portable camera lens to look through. Take it with me into the office, position it to capture daily interactions with toxic coworkers and office thieves who keep stealing the paper from my printer. 😂 You earned my subscription by inspiring my creative/engineering mind. Now, if I only had more time to build what I design. Thanks for sharing your skills with the world.
Haha, glad I can give you inspiration :D Making the mag bigger gernerally would work, smaller changes on the sewing hole position would be needed and there would be needed some solution for the D-rings sind they can not be scaled endlessly with it. For the back of your bike, also the legs need to be taken in consideration not to hang down and get ripped apart in your wheel. Still I think this is a funny and doable idea :)
@NilsBeardfoot I was thinking about the bag actually holding onto the tail with small straps between the legs. May have to make the legs articulate in the joints for the proper fit. The closure would also need to be secure enough to withstand 100+ mph wind speed and keep the inside dry in the rain. With the right straps attached to the legs, it could also double as a sling bag. Most commercial sportbike tail bags can be worn as backpacks or hip bags, depending on the design.
Aww, come on! Revisit this and show how you did the horn part! This is gorgeous, and it's going to be the reason I finally buy all the leathercraft gear I've been researching.
I love the natural browns but I also think it would look amazing with a sutble dark mossy green/blue and even some iridescent touches ❤ this is a neat bag, thank you for sharing
I thought about that already, the process it not that easy to show. I mostly think of the shape in my mind, create a first rough template digital from it, print it and try it out. From this on the process repeats: imagine, transfer digital, print, build, repeat :)
Gracias, ciertamente no es el tamaño más favorable en términos de volumen, se podría hacer más grande, pero eso también lo haría más difícil de manejar.
Thank you :) Yes it is, but latest when you go +50% you should add additional sewing holes and the D-rings can not scale endlessly, so you have to make little adjustments here, but then you should be good to go :)
I know exactly what you mean, in the beginning I had the same fear, so I started with just the basic pieces and with every project bought a view more. Maybe thats also an idea for you?
Thank you :) I used music before, but abandoned it, because you never get fitting one for everyone, so if you like music you can play your own along the video :)
despite the complexity you make it look so simple! i've never done anything like this before but i want to try! would this be a good project for a complete beginner or should i try try something easier first? also are the materials expensive?
There are many online leatherwork shops to order from in many countrys. Many tools can be substituted for tools you may have already: a bonefolder could be just the blund side of the right fork and with the tips you can mark even distance between sewing holes. Minimum tools are an awl, needles for sewing, cutting knife and board and beveler for the edges, for embossing some stone plate, a plastic hammer and any stamps you like.
@@NilsBeardfoot I have most of the mandatory required things! nice!! I think I'm going to save up for this pattern and the acorn pattern! I feel like the pattern would also be really cool to try in fabric with the different pattern pieces as quilted pieces for the stability
@@NilsBeardfoot also I don't know if your aware but your personal website re-directs to a ''not succure website' on my browser. just in case you didn't know.

DON'T SAY HIS NAME
Dude you should put this artwork in a museum it's so awesome!
haha, thank you. A museum would be tempting, but I also like to just wear the things I create :)
the texture/coloring on the outer shell is amazing, i thought this bag was made partially out of wood at first! what a sick design, i love it!!
Thank you, glad you like it :)
Well, guess it's time to learn how to work leather
This is genuinely gorgeous!! Thanks for the tutorial, it is the first time I've ever seen a video of yours but you seem so nice and helpful, keep up the good work!
Thank you very much :) Glad I can give you an insight into leather work!
This genuinely belongs in an art museum
I have never considered leather working as a hobby, but now i am
theres something so excellent about this concept, i cant believe ive never seen a beetle bag before... it all makes so much sense ! 😵💫 i had no idea i needed this
:D Glad I could show you a new thing :)
i wasn't even looking for any leather work, but I'm happy I saw this: it's stunning!!
Thank you :)

Glad I can provide you with some inspiration :) The beetle is based on a hercules beetle, maybe that helps

Thank you :) Well the horn is nothing special, just bend the horn and sew the gap together :D
Oh my goodness. I saw the thumbnail and had to see this beauty
Glad you found your way here :D
This may have been one of the coolest things I've seen on the internet!!! I want one so badly, but I've no idea how to work on leather 😭
Thank you so much! Well here you can find a lot of information on how to do it :)
This popped up in my youtube recommendations and the thumbnail drew me in, it looks amazing, you've done some fantastic work with this.
Thank you so much :)
Hatte das Video zufällig auf der Startseite und musste es anschauen. Der Käfer ist der Wahnsinn, so schön! Großes Kompliment!
Vielen Dank, freut mich, dass er dir gefällt :)
This may be the coolest thing I've ever seen
Thank you so much!
I love the natural browns but I also think it would look amazing with a sutble dark mossy green/blue and even some iridescent touches ❤ this is a neat bag, thank you for sharing
this is so skillfully and cleverly crafted, obsessed with the texture and embossing!! beetlebag beetlebag beetlebag!!!!!!
Thank you, but oh no! You summoned it!
*Omg Beetle-bag!!!!* -we all gasp in unison
Thank you :)
... been interested on learning leather working for years.
This may be the thing that finally pushes me past the edge ._.
LOVE it.
Thank you :) Glad I can be the one doing the last push!
I'm gobsmacked by how amazing this is!
Thank you, glad you like it :)

I’m obsessed…
Absolutely stunning per usual!! I cant wait to add this bag to my collection
Thank you very much :)
I am always genuinely impressed with your creativity. Great project and execution as every time
Thank you very much :) The general idea of this bag came from a viewer this time :)
Oooh! I don't have the money or space to invest in starting leatherworkimg but... This makes me very tempted. Gorgeous bag!
This is my new hyperfixation. Subscribed!
Hehe, hope you enjoy the other projects as well :)
Isopod bag next! ❤️
This was a fantastic video! I have no experience in leather working but it made me want to try!!!
Probably the prettiest bag I've ever seen !
Great job !!
Thank you very much!
Beautiful. I love leather. Have a leather backpack that i have used for 10 years and it still looks great
@@miasma82 thank you :)
Oh my goodness that is GORGEOUS!!!!
Thank you very much!
this is an amazing bag!! if i knew how to work with leather this would be an immediate project on my list… maybe one day. thank you for this tutorial!
Thank you, glad you like it and one day comes, my channel is here :)
oh my god it’s gorgeous, i need five
Thank you :) you can craft as many as you want
Dude ! that's freaking awesome and refreshing at the same time. Truly one of a kind craft
Thank you so much!
That's amazing! It scares me, but what a brilliant job.

I love this bag, it’s GORGEOUS!

I THINK IT JUST NEEDS TO BE A TOY FOR KIDS TO PLAY WITH!
Your creations always amaze me- you inspire me!!
Glad I can do so :)
That some talent in leather working really nice result
That is next level, excellent craftsmanship dude
Thank you very much :)
Unglaublich! Leder macht halt echt einen Eindruck.
Villeicht sollte ich auch mit sowas anfangen...
Wenn du in ein Neues besonderes Hobby rein schauen willst, solltest du das vielleicht :)
I just want to buy a bag like this already made. Its so amazing,
Glad you like it :) Unfortunately I offer only the digital pattern
You're doing an exceptional job and you efforts are making a real difference 👍👍
Thank you, very glad to read this 😋
Well this looks like the perfect project for the New Year for me.
Haha, new year, new bag :)
So pleased I stumbled across your video. About to binge some more. Amazing craftsmanship.
Thank you! Glad you found your way here
it looks so cool !
all your patterns are. Will definitely give it a try!
@@altaseara4586 thank you very much, glad you will :)
love your stuff (had to see your shop too). that beetle is amazing.
Thank you, glad you like my creations :)
I just found your channel via this video and your work is insane! Instantly subscribed! :D
Thank you so much! Glad you found your way here
Wow I need to make this immediately
This unbelievably beautiful. You have really nice pacing to your video.
Thank you for your feedback, I will just keep it that way then :D
That's some creative projects you think up!
Thank you :) The initial idea came here from a viewer :)
This is STUNNNNNNNNING
Thank you :)
Комментарий в поддержку канала и ролика, а также труда мастера.
Спасибо
I luv this ❤
This is so cool!
I love this!!
This looks so cool! ❤❤❤
Thank you!
Wow that's amazing! So cool!!
Thank you :)
This one is soooo fabulous 😍
@@jana_kruemel thank you :)
So cool! Shaping that top horn seems a little bit intimidating though.
Thank you :) Give it a bit of a bend and most of it will pull itself into place by sewing, also you can always remoisten it and shape it again
I love it so much! Absolutely adorable!❤❤❤
Thank you so much :)
This is amazing! Would you consider a video on how you create your patterns digitally? Great work, thanks for sharing
I thought about that already, the process it not that easy to show. I mostly think of the shape in my mind, create a first rough template digital from it, print it and try it out. From this on the process repeats: imagine, transfer digital, print, build, repeat :)
i love him!
I would love to see more bug bags pleeasasssseseeeee
Me too, from the general shape of this one you could create a lady bug and a scarab without the horns. Lets see if any ideas come up :)
SOO CUTE! OMG~
Very cool bag, good job!!!!
Thanks!
This is incredible!!
Thank you :)
That’s so cool!
Thanks :)
Sieht mega cool aus!! 👏👏
Dankeschön :)
So cool!
Thank you :)
Amazing 🎉🎉🎉
Ahh this is absolutely gorgeous!!
Thank you :)
I’m in literal awe 🤩
Glad you like it :)
I've never seen a bag I needed more oh my god. Do you sell the finished work at all, or only the patterns?
Unfortunately only the pattern, maybe you can give it a try yourself?
Beetle bag, beetle bag, beetle bag!
THE SUMMONING HAS BEGUN!
🏆🏆✨ Original & precioso, minimalista para salir con lo justo, teléfono, llaves y poco más, pero muy buen diseño.
Gracias, ciertamente no es el tamaño más favorable en términos de volumen, se podría hacer más grande, pero eso también lo haría más difícil de manejar.
I don't have leather, but I bet this would look amazing using foam
I could imagine this too, most difficult party is getting top and bottom together stable.
HOLY f* S* !!! What??? This is so so amazing ❤👀 whoa. !!!
Thank you very much :)
Wow! Absolutely stunning! Is it possible to size up the patterns and make a bigger one?
Thank you :) Yes it is, but latest when you go +50% you should add additional sewing holes and the D-rings can not scale endlessly, so you have to make little adjustments here, but then you should be good to go :)
So cool! :o
Nyx Nyx Nyx!
I gasped when I saw the thumbnail
BEETLE BAG BEETLE BAG
Oh no! You summoned it!
I dont have the time money or space for another hobby but i need one so badddddd 😭 can i buy one from you omg
Glad you like it so much :) unfortunately I currently sell only the digital pattern
🎉So beautiful I just go subscribe to your channel I can’t wait to see all the other stuff🎉
hehe, glad to have you around :)
Oh, I keep telling myself not to get into leatherworking because I'll just buy a bunch of tools and not use them. But this is tempting.
I know exactly what you mean, in the beginning I had the same fear, so I started with just the basic pieces and with every project bought a view more. Maybe thats also an idea for you?
you have irreparably altered my brain in ways you cannot comprehend
beeetle bagggggggg
:D Well, you are welcome?
These videos are awesome, but would benefit from some light music
Thank you :) I used music before, but abandoned it, because you never get fitting one for everyone, so if you like music you can play your own along the video :)
Such a gorgeous design. Also I’ve never seen anyone use an airbrush to stain leather before, what dyes are you using?
Thank you :) Mostly I use Fiebings Pro dye, it creats a lot of dust, so be sure to do it outside and use protection gear
Need a link for your magnetic leather! Great projects, thanks.
Thank you :) Havn't noticed my leather is magnetic, but I can give you the link to it anyway if that is what you are looking for.
despite the complexity you make it look so simple! i've never done anything like this before but i want to try! would this be a good project for a complete beginner or should i try try something easier first? also are the materials expensive?
I’d really like to start some lerning lether work but I have no idea what are the best tools for a dabbler and where to get them
