It's looks doubly awesome when also tooled up.
Would like to see snakes, dragons, fish, wolves, eagles.... All would make great sheaths.
How stable is it, have you tried giving it a rub with a damp cloth?
Yup it's in the epidermis of the hide it's in for good and a dam good rub still stayed put
I have one of these

It allows me to cut perfect leather circles out...
Ideal for patches, perhaps you should invest?

It will be a small glass and a scalpel for me fella as I've a steady hand anyway.
Adapt and overcome .
I may well have to look into tooling never done it before so wouldn't know where to start or even what tools I would need but I'm sure I could do it
Nice job mate, and a really good idea. 
Tattooing raw pig skin is a way for buddinng tattooists to practice, is it not?
What's the texture of the tattooed hide? if it's anything like a raw tat' then surely it will be kind of like suede?

Yes tis like suede bud but looks so much better when it's in your hand .
Thanks for the comment bud
That looks really good Trev.
Cheers Colin I keep trying to throw different things in the mix to keep things lively
1mm line thickness and would say the same for gaps too it's just like a normal tattoo on human skin mate
If you fancy a little more practice on leather without breaking the bank then head down to a charity shop and buy a few ladies leather hand bags. Plenty of usable tattooable leather in those and good for pouches, draw string bags etc.
Sadly, down this way the local charity shops are a con. £250 for an old ladies rotten sofa! £50 for a leather jacket an old man died in and £15 for a manky handbag that hasn't been in fashion since the 80's. lol rip off buggers!
Also, I think your engraving is very tidy.
It's not everyones thing but it certainly appeals to a decent portion of readers and is something different for anyone customers who want something extra for their toys. I have a feeling the leather tattooing will probably be more desirable to the majority of members here, but the two are certainly a great addition to the multitude of options for us guys to buy/admire. Keep up the good work and get investing in some stock so you can make some coin mate!
