Members Gawdzilla Posted January 29, 2011 Author Members Report Posted January 29, 2011 Try some experiments with Fiebings Oil dyes and water. I have found that if you hit the article dyed, and not quite fully dry, with streaks/splotches of water you can achive some cool rustic effects. Sorry, I don't have any pictures as I usually got the results when I did not want them... Thanks, I'll give that a try. Have you experimented with using a lighter dye first, and then hitting it with random patches of a slightly darker dye? Quote
Members JoelR Posted February 1, 2011 Members Report Posted February 1, 2011 I do not do anything that requires an aged look - yet (my other hobby, Halloween, has me looking into Steampunk as it is quickly becoming a popular sub-gener for Halloween displays). My observations are mearly from my clumsyness...
