- In this video, Daniel Reach from the Leatherverse demonstrates how to add hair texture into our tooling and carving. Outlining the shape and lines of the hair may seem self-explanatory, but details like hair direction, shadows and highlights are what creates realistic looking hair.

I recently acquired some old leather craft supplies. Lots of stamps. Two of the tools that had tiny individual blades. I tried them on some scrap leather. Put them back in the tool block. When I found out what they were I wanted to take another look at them. They were gone! Not a trace. Must've been the favorite tools of the original owner that is no longer with us.
This video is AMAZING! I'm going to watch it several times to soak up every bit of your advice on creating hair texture. I'm so happy to see a tutorial on tooling with this much detail. I'm absolutely thrilled with with your extensive use of modeling spoons! I hope you will be back on a regular basis with much more content. Good job, Weaver, for bring us such an awesome tooling instructor.
Thank you! I'm so glad it helped. I absolutely love teaching this amazing craft. And yes...I will be popping up on a regular basis. Typically Mondays at 10c.
@@DanielReachCreations AWESOME! I'll be watching for new content as well as viewing your Leatherverse videos.
Yes! I would love to learn about backgrounds, also what to do when you may not want one. This was a great video! As a photographer it helped so much looking at the photo in this manner and having you point out the triangles and the highlights and shadows like you did!!
Excellent video. Putting the hair blade in the swivel knife is a great tip! Love learning new things.
Great video! Thanks for taking the time to explain the 'why', not just the 'how' part of the process. I would live to see a video on backgrounding, keep up the great work!!
Very helpful, I've always had problems with hair
Beautiful work, as I get more tools I want to try this. Really enjoy your videos.
Outstanding again buddy, I'm working my way through your back catalogue. I believe you make something to grab someone's attention but on the same hand I wouldn't want it to be gaudy so they notice your work and when they get close enough that's when they actually see the piece, you can look and not see if you get my meaning, and it's the detail that sells it. People can see time thought and imagination have been put into this piece of artwork, you have taken a flat medium and created depth and highlight, you are both painter and sculptor in one you use the tools as a brush and also a chisel. You are an extremely talented artist buddy and an even better teacher as you are very generous with your instruction thank you again and I wish I had a fraction of your talents and skill, all the very best from Scotland.
Thank you my friend. That's some high praise... I'll do my best to live up to it.
@@DanielReachCreations you can't hide real talent Daniel.
yes, more on backgrounding. Thanks!
I would love to see a video on background shading.
Amazing. This video will help take my leather work to the next level. Thanks!
That was excellent. I don't do a lot of hair currently but I do a lot of florals where I can apply this .
Awesome awesome awesome ! 👍🏻
That's awesome! Just out of curiosity, could you use similar techniques to make bark textures? If not could you do a video to show us how you would approach creating a bark texture in your tooling? Thanks for the amazing instructions!
Yes! This would be part of how I would do it. I'll add it to the list!
Daniel, I will give you a really great. Plus you’re amazing at what you can do. Where did you get the double edged sword that you used for the hair? I can see a lot of uses for that in leather 19:45 19:45 airbrush’s I bought, I couldn’t get the paint to come out of the airbrush. I know you get what you pay for. Boy did I get what I paid for, NOTHING. I decided that I would purchase a good airbrush from an excellent manufacturer. I bought an “Ultra 2024” from Harder & Steenbeck of Germany. At least I found out what an excellent airbrush feels like and it worked very well. Thank you forgiving everyone your time and knowledge. Best regards, Richard
Thank you for this one. I'm going to watch this a couple of times so I get it right. Would you mind doing a step video? Like: you are done with the carving then you do this and this. I'd like to know when oiling the project fits in mostly. Or do you even oil the leather? Yes, I'd like a background video also please and thank you. Carving leather, I've thought it's out of my wheel house, but after watching your videos I can't wait to try it. Hopefully soon.
Thats a good idea. I'll add it to the list.
Great vid Dan! The irony was the hook, but after watching your work, I'm going to get me a modeling spoon.
One question I have, how long, or how, do you case your leather for that kind of work?
Chris, I'm going to answer this in one of the upcoming videos called "Answering your questions" or something like that. Basically it'll be a video where I just answer questions from the comment section. Maybe a week or two out.
Looks like your question will be answered in the second video called "answering your questions." First one comes out in a few weeks.
Don't want you don't have to wait for the answer... the leather is cased just like you would for tooling or slightly wetter. Too much moisture and the leather will move but you won't get any burnish. Too little, and you have the opposite problem. How this helps! 🙂
👍👍👍👍

Bald guy teaching us about hair, that's a Reach. Get it, Daniel Reach?
Bwahahaha
😆😆🤣🤣😆😆I would have totally made that joke!
Awesome advice! When I started, back in the day, I watched RhymeswithCandy (#ChuckDorsett) videos trying to learn the hair blade - they got nothing on You! I'm finally develoing a concept to creating hair texture! THANK YOU! Also... How wet was your leather when removing texture? It seemed to melt away... As if it was really wet. But it can't be, because then the other textures wouldn't stick, they'd smoothen themselves out...
You're very welcome! I love helping others realize what they can do with a little knowledge. Glad it helped. 🙂
As far as the moisture level in the leather when removing highlights...it was more on the dry side. I hadn't needed to dampen it in a while...so it was more dry than what you would want when carving. It doesn't take much.
@@DanielReachCreations ok... I'm gonna' give it a go... (Once I nurture this newborn out of the way, in a couple of months 😅🥰😂) ...I'll try and tag you in the reaction video. At least you'll be able to compile a "common mistakes" video ;)
@@Alomtancos lol! You'll do great! Definitely tag me. I'd love to see the results
Okaaayyy..... now the hair hiding his eyes?
Hi Rosemary,
Thats actually the fur from the cap he's wearing, and we cover that in the next video. We took a texture tool and added random texture to it.
