Check out the case I just made :)
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.

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.

Indeed, I deleted the useless and rather rude post that was made.
Any questions feel free to shoot me a message.

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

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.Last edited by gameson; 07-17-2011 at 07:41 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. - 07-20-2011, 12:29 AM #22
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.
Warm Regards

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.
