    Dr. Zaius hieroglyph jacket

    Here is my latest experiment playing with the laser etcher: making a leather insert for Dr. Zaius' hieroglyph jacket.





    Leather etches really well. You can see the symbols have a raised surface. I'm not sure how to finish this as I will have to learn more about working with leather. I also need to sew the jacket. However, I thought this turned out pretty neat and wanted to share. I may try to design some Mego-scale leather armor next.

                  Holy...mackeral!!! That is just amazing, & beautiful.

                  I was always disappointed that Zaius (my favorite POTA) didn't get pleather trim like the the chimpanzees. This is an excellent "upgrade".

                  Will you be painting the leather or leaving it natural?

                        That is very cool. This could be used if someone was doing a Kryptonian also. I remember Superman wearing some type of script on an outfit once.

                          I might be wrong but I would guess after you burn detail into leather you would want to rub it or coat it with something; like whatever they use on baseball gloves. I think the thing you want to avoid is after it being burned by a laser it might dry out. You would probably want it to remain soft and pliable.
