Ok, I've got Orks.
Simple really whats the best/your way to paint Worn leather.

Remember this is for Batch painting otherwise I would be adding a bit of white to scorch brown and making crease lines then repeating the process with more white.

So 2-3 step, currently its Scorched Brown graveyard earth sides. Anything better to suggest thanks

Graveyard Earth + Terra Earth + Sepia wash

If you want to bring it back up after that, do a light Terra earth

I like what Kyvik does, gonna have to try it, but what I normally do (for the edges of my SW fur pelts and such) is:

"Snakebite Leather"--> wash"Gryphonne Sepia" or "Devlan Mud" --> drybrush "Bleached Bone"

Why is it that only those who have never fought in a battle are so eager to be in one?

Gathering the Informations.

Spoiler:


Didn't want to hijack your thread, so I posted an example from my own gallery within the spoiler tags.

Is that the kind of effect you're looking for?

The way I did that was easy.
It's Scorched Brown, washed Gryphonne Sepia.
While that is still wet, you then apply a wash of Devlan Mud.

Using a wet brush, you kind of 'combine' the two in such a way that the color is gradually tinted to look far dirtier.
Let it dry, then wash it with Badab Black heavily watered down to seal the deal.

@ Kanluwen,

If you give good information like that (points @ spoiler tag), you can hijack my threads any time you like.
