A while back i posted the pictures of my Altair belt taken when i had just finished it
idiotengine.deviantart.com/art…

But now i have decided to do an entire Altair costume i thought id go for some realism and weather all my leather parts.

So the high tech process of kicking it around the garden began, i split a few stitches unintentionally, but the belt still holds together so i may just leave it.
plenty of scuffs and pocks and a few small signs of stress and tearing really make the belt look worn in and realistic.

I even went to the effort of darkening the leather a little by adding a few drops of water and ironing it, which also gave it a cool old texture.

Next I'm adding the frog (drop down sheath) but i still need to tool the leather a little and get a rivet gun.
