My ultimate works
Hello everyone,
I was a bit absent, I'm sorry. But between family and various commitments, I have less time to devote to whips and forums lately.
As many know, I occasionally make whips, mostly in Cowhide or Kiphide, occasionally also in Roohide.
I would like to share with you some of the Indy style bullwhips which I have done in recent years.
I hope the photos are of your own liking
Raiders
Temple of Doom
Last Crusade

We've talked in the past about a ToD whip, and I still want one, but have no money for such currently. Nice looking whips man, and keep it going!

Amazing work, Lelec!
All those whips are breathtaking and the plaiting is wonderful!
Cheers,

Re: My ultimate works
Beautiful and screen accurate as always!
I can highly recommend Emanuele's work. I have owned his Indy kiphide whip, I own his target kiphide bullwhip and I have cracked few more. They are totally awesome. Plaiting is tight and strand drops are clean. Indy whips are very screen accurate, heavy, as I like them. And the order is customizable and in the end you get what you want.
Emanuele, keep plaiting such awesome whips!

Re: My ultimate works
My God, that Last Crusade bullwhip is masterful. I love the chocolate brown ring knot above the handle! What a gorgeous whip! They ALL are, but that LC is beautiful...

Re: My ultimate works
Order one and you won't be disappointed
Re: My ultimate works
I'd love to, but I just purchased a new AdVintage LC custom, a Wested LC Hero, and I'm on the list for Azuma's upcoming LC shirt, so my Indy gear budget is maxed out! But I have an original DM #453 with short handle, which looks fairly close to the LC bullwhip, so it's all good.

Re: My ultimate works
Whipwarrior, I do believe you are missing a Zorro whip.
Are you ready to entrust the task to Lelec perhaps?
Edit: ahhh, just saw your new post about your budget. I posted a few seconds too late...

Re: My ultimate works
Oh yes, and the Zorro whip. But yeah, my gear budget is pretty much blown for this year, and I need to get back to saving money again. But Lelec does make very nice bullwhips! Any Indy fan should be proud to own one!

Here you can find more wonderful examples of Emanuele's work: https://www.facebook.com/pg/lelecwhips/ ... e_internal" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
This is my whip: https://scontent-waw1-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/ ... e=5A8DABFA" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
It is nicely broken in. Targeting and wrapping is purely amazing.

However I don't consider myself a famous maker, I'm a part-time whipmaker, but even if I do a few whips a year, I hope to improve more and more

Thank you my friend!
Happy to know that you are still well with the whip I've made for you a few years ago
Thanks for your support
