Default LeMans on a Wallet

Anyone else here make stuff out of leather?

I occasionally assemble Tandy leather kits and attempt tooling.

I found I can take a photo, run it through an app that creates an outline, and use it as a tooling template.

My wife gave me a wallet kit for Christmas so I decided to go for it...

Not sure who's car this is, but it's the cosmetic role model and motivation for my own:



This is the template after touching it up:



This is how it came out... good enough to be destroyed by folding it up and using it!
