Making a Roman tunic with clavi (the yellow stripes)

I decided to try something new on my personal guitar. It's a heavily modified Gibson SG from 2011 that started its life with chrome hardware, but has since then been replaced for gold. The Dirty Fingers™ pickups were exposed pickups, and didn't really fit in with the rest of the look, so I decided to buy some gold pickup covers for it, and it really did make it look better!

Dyeing some leather with a stain i originally made for wood. It's made by dissolving iron in acid, in my case I put steel wool and some old nails in a jar of vinegar, and let it sit for some weeks. But in reality it would be ready within 24 hours.
