Walnut dyed buckskin?

<< < (2/3) > >>

Spotted Dog:
 A spray bottle might work. Try the sponge on scrap as well as spray first.

mullet:
I changed the darkness of mine by wringing them out, either very hard or lighter. And you can rinse it where you want with a hose and nozzle.

mullet:
Here's the pair I did. This pair was made from three hides that the smoke didn't match. I wanted it darker anyway so the Walnut solved the problem.

Peatreg:
This is what the shirt looks like currently. I was originally going to use dark green or maybe black paint on the upper portion of the chest, shoulders and 3/4 down the sleeves. The hides weren't smoked long enough to get the color that I was hoping for. The dye came today so I'm going to test out on some scrap pieces tonight to see if this is what I want to do or go with the pigment paint instead

Zuma:
Really nice shirt.  8)Waiting to see what you come up with :)
