Hi chaps, I'm currently building a 1/8th scale Jaguar etype and I want to trim the interior with some thin leather.

Loads of people have done this but can't find any thin tan leather. Does anyone know where I can get some from?

Thanks for that, exactly what I have needed for ages. They were really helpful over the phone as well.

Isn't 1:1 scale leather going to look 8x too big in terms of texture?

The Pittards leather is very good and scales nicely. This is a seat I covered from the 1/8 DB5 part work from a few years ago. The leather is less than 1mm thick.
