Check out the case I just made :)

**gameson** · 07-16-2011, 08:51 PM

It's a front and back snap on hard case cover 100% handmade wrapped with 100% genuine python leather, beautiful... what do you think? I made this for myself to use.

What do you think?

Not a pattern I'd choose, but excellent work. Its obvious you've put a lot of effort into it. If you're happy with it, ignore the negative comments. ~ecm

To each their own when it comes to style but please guys, don't bash it.

If you don't care for it, move along, no need to be mean.

You need to look at the thread on the regular browser, not the wap browser.

To the OP - great work. Looks nice.

Indeed, I deleted the useless and rather rude post that was made.

Any questions feel free to shoot me a message.

**MobileMadness002** · 07-17-2011, 03:42 PM

Me... Heck no. I have to reason to question, me was just curious. I have had posts editted, I try and get them corrected before the mods have to step in, but sometimes I just don't think bfore pressing the

And so everyone knows, this is a private forum, there is NO freedom of speech here. That should be obvious, but alas a lot of peeps don't know that.

Nicely done!

**homer1475** · 07-17-2011, 05:11 PM

The skin kinda looks dry, like it needs some oil on it or something. Overall a very nice job.

Did you use something like an otterbox case to start with?

**gameson** · 07-17-2011, 07:39 PM

Thank you all for your feedbacks, both positive and negative. I understand that it may not be anyone liking, but I think it's something unique, so that's why I give it a shot. I see that now the exotic skins is gaining steams...

To answer homer1475 question, I use a mesh snap on case to start with, then I wrap it with the leather. The skin looks dry, because it's a non polished/shiny skin. If I use a polished/shiny skin, the skin won't show the real texture of the leather, it will instead look plastic-ky, kinda like a faux (fake) snake leather. This is real leather, however.

I am also currently making one for Bold 9700 for my sister. It would be baby blue color. I will post once I finish it.

**laollis** · 07-18-2011, 11:53 PM

I don't like snakes, but I have to say...that's cool! Nice job!

**gameson** · 07-19-2011, 03:51 PM

check it out.

**pkcable** · 07-19-2011, 09:16 PM

Damn! You got some skills!

**shamoo711** · 07-19-2011, 09:24 PM

What type of tool are you using to make those cuts and create the "holes"?

They look perfect!

**gameson** · 07-19-2011, 09:43 PM

The process is not as hard as you think. I only use glue, cutter, and some skills, lol...

thank you for the likes. hopefully you like the case. My friends like them as well, and they thought it's unique, so I m going to make few cases for friends from the small leather leftovers I picked up when I start this lil side project to dress up my phone. I will post them when I finish it.

**agentjucey** · 07-20-2011, 12:18 AM

hmmm...im gonna out do you... gonna kill an anaconda and put it on my playbook. beat that. gimme 2months.

**mobibiz** · 07-20-2011, 12:29 AM

Good work! the texture of the cover may not be to everyone's liking but the craftsmanship is awesome. I personally like the texture part too, although I wish it was a little polished. Custom covers for the BB!! Wow I'd say if you post a few of these on Ebay they'll sell like hot cakes.

**Lumute** · 07-20-2011, 12:33 AM

Wait until PETA sees you, lol...

I'm personally not into animal skin but nice job otherwise, very good finish...

**gameson** · 07-20-2011, 03:03 AM

Mobibiz, for a polished leather, all you need to do is to rub the leather with an oil conditioner. You can always polish up a leather from non polished to polished, but once the leather is polished, you can NOT dull it down to non polished. So it's always wiser to start with non polished, and then oil it up to the shine you want.
