Available soon

[sakerjack]

I have been working on this hood for over 6 years and am now finally pleased with it. The "Andian" is a hybrid of the ANglo and inDIAN styled hood and in my opinion just one of the coolest and most distinctive hoods out there. The complete story of the hood will be posted on the hood section of my web site soon. I am offering a one color Field Hood and the "Exotic" Field hood, featuring lizard with many other unique skins available. This blocked hood is fully lined inside and also has a sewn Brace Protector. This hood unless lost will last for YEARS! Master hood maker Scott Webster's comment on the Exotic hood pictured... "That hood is Bomb proof" I tend to agree.

[falcon56]

Ken,
6 years from now I think I'll be needing one for a tiercel peales, so if you get started now, it should be done by then, right?:D

[oldguy]

I like it Ken. Different enough, but not too much.

Did you check out that website I pm'd you. eidnesfurs.com

This hood cries out for the leather I told you about. Never did try to dye any of this, so you're on you own there. Nice color as is. I will promise you one thing. No one will guess what that leather is. It's that unique ! Never have to worry about running short of them either.

I like the gape opening. I like the aerodynamic seams ! Hell I just like it.

"Andian" does sound a bit South American. Call it "dog poop" I'd still buy one.

That is one kicking hood Ken. I love the exotic, the red color is phenominal. You make me dream and dream creating such works of art. I wish mine were that great. Thanks for the inspiration.

They stay underground until June,, Seriously though I have had several PM about the Lizard hood. I have to charge more than the usual "Lizard add 10-15.00" the reason is simple on a Dutch hood you are only using lizard on the small eye panels on my Andian the ENTIRE HOOD hood is lizard. Depending on the size of the hood it may take pretty much the entire hide leaving me with only scraps and they are not cheap to purchase so I think 30.00 is more than fair

Thanks KD,,you are well on your way, trust me. The red monitor skin does look striking but it is the hide, nothing I have done.

[sakerjack]

Here are a few Cole-man (story of the hood see my web site) Hoods that I have just finished for some customers.
The darker one is Monitor and the other Peanut Brittle Ostrich, these hoods will last you for years..

Oh Ken those are phenominal. WOW is all I can say.

[gos'n]

Very cool Ken. I got a new tiercel peales last spring, and it came with a Coleman hood on it. The breeder was more worried about getting that hood back, than getting the money for the bird! Seems he couldn't get them made anymore, and it was his go to hood.
Very nice indeed.

[gos'n]

Am I seeing a Pred-A-tor type closure?

I used to have set of cowboy boots made of shark,, I have never seen skins available, they would be tough and last a long time.

[varanus]

It would look awsome on that hood too.

[varanus]

Found this with just a quick search. http://www.implora.com/accessories.asp?st=0550&jd=Implora Brown Shark Skin Leather Hide&k=6&i=29

It seems that link doesn't work but just click on the link on the page that pops up for the skins

[biskwisk]

Ken, are you familiar which blocks Webster used to make his hoods? I have one for my barb x sakar and I'm trying to order another hood that fits her this well.
