EDIT: Nevermind. I don't mean to continue the discussion.
Yeah, I wouldn't feel comfortable with it, sorry acidtrip69 but exotic leather is something I'm not branching out into using
really ? are you kidding me ? i'd pay for the cost of skin and anyway i would be the customer. You make what the customer wants its not about your feeling i guess i can try to find another person that works with theses leathers if you don't want to, but i still feel like you should get off your high horse a bit.
Calm down AcidTrip.
The response you are getting is all because the way you voiced your first response. It makes you sound like a self-centered twat.
This is the artisan services forum, you are commissioning an artist. And Jolonar has every right to decline an order for whatever reason she wants.
And you are pressing the issue.
Besides, both snake skin as well as stingray are not very comfortable for your wrists. The latter was used for the handle of swords because it provided excellent grip even when wet with blood. The flip side is that it will be very uncomfortable on the sensitive skin at your wrists. Snake skin is too coarse and will either look like crap a few months down the road or will just be very abrasive.
