A Hood for Me

[SakerJack]

I decided on Thurs to take a break from making customers hoods and make one for the upcoming season for my hawk Khan.
This another El Diablo "Nacho" but with many different features, the hood is totally dyed unlike the previous one, totally tooled , sewn top deck and the Southwest raven is carved into the leather. It also features 13 John Moran washers.
It is the first of my Ken Hooke Collector hoods called "Shades of the Southwest"
Here are a few pictures

Hey Ben thanks,,Funny you mention that,, I have made a couple and I know the Cowboy Dan would like one,, I have a few ideas and this last hood was kind of a prototype(carving and different applications of dye) of things to come.
Hope you are well?

My comment about your work is unnecessary. You are proven hoodmaker, just post photos on the new hoods you make:yawinkle:
