Hi, is there a SBS out there that shows how to paint worn leather like you would have on belts, gloves etc?

Thanks

Thanks Gordy. I missed that one. I'll have a good look at it.
I guess I'm kind of after the "worn baseball glove" look. I see guys painting old worn leather belts where the centre is a darker brown and the edges are a very light brownish colour. This would apply to a worn gloves as well.

Thanks again Carl. I replied to your PM.

Another aproche.
Paint the boots or anything else that needs to be leather with a marsbrown. Let it completly dry.
Then, paint them black.
After drying for several hours you take a piece of corduroy and wipe the black off. Don't do it to hard, but with gently feelings.....let us say the booth is a woman.
What you get is a wornout leatherlook booth.

Thanks Marc. That's a unique way but I see what you mean. When I get home from work I'll try it out.

Thanks again,
