Show us your leather

Hi all, had a question: I've been trying to get the best evo i can out my wallet and started tanning it without knowing what I was doing. Basically I left it out in the sun for 3 ish hours a few times thinking it would speed up the tanning process, I'm worried I may have started to dry out the leather. I've read good things about obenaufs heavy duty LP and was thinking about applying some, can anyone whose used it attest to it or another product for "rejuvenating" the leather? I've posted a few (albeit crappy) pics that show the grain, I might be a worry wart but I don't want the evo to turn out crappy after spending so much time making it. I appreciate any help.

 

Regards,

Kevin

This is a custom shoulder bag I made for a client. Its cut from harness leather and has a duck canvas liner with hand sewn leather bias. The bag was designed for the clients daily carries which include an iPad compartment, pen holders, key clip, and a hidden exterior pocket.

The belt has 6+ years of everyday wear on it (it was from the first batch of Super Tan IH Belts…I ditched class to be there when they arrived), and the FH Cordovan Card Case is 2.5 years or so.  It's obvious I have put both in contact with too much indigo…but they're doing alright.
