michi Report post Posted February 2, 2009 Wow, that belt is really nice! May I ask you how you did the coloring? If I did such a belt I would use 1.)Antique finish 2.) black acrylic lacquer for the backgrounds with a really fine brush 3.) any kind of acrylic finish to fix the antique. But this way dures pretty long. Is there any better way? michi Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nomad Report post Posted February 2, 2009 michi, thanks for the comment and question. Spirit dye for the backgrounds, Oil, Antique finish and Super Shene. Faster way I do not know. Here many more skilled people, probably someone will comment. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
