  3. Repeat, but this time with Nuln Oil , thinned with a medium of your choice. this step is just to add darkeness in the very deepest parts.

Dark Brown Leather

  1. Basecoat with Rhinox Hide .
  2. Take some thinned Mournfang Brown and apply a heavy glaze over the leather. You are looking to cover pretty much everything but the recesses here.
  3. Now with Skrag Brown , apply a chunky highlight down the most exposed parts, covering less area that the previous stage.
  4. Mix 1:1 Skrag Brown and Ushabti Bone and repeat the above, but make it a finer highlight.
