Members TheCyberwolfe Posted February 11, 2016 Members Report Posted February 11, 2016 In the model-making world, a cup of coffee is a great way to 'age' an object. Never tried it on painted leather myself, but perhaps worth a try. Quote -- I don't suffer from insanity, I enjoy every minute! www.rogueleather.com
indidana Posted February 11, 2016 Author Report Posted February 11, 2016 I can't imagine that it would work on acrylic, but I could be wrong. Im going to give it a shot. Quote
Members buzzardbait Posted February 11, 2016 Members Report Posted February 11, 2016 I use the antigue gels over acrylic paint quite often to age a project. Just make sure your acrylics are completely dry before you antique. Then seal with Super Sheen Quote
AndyL1 Posted February 11, 2016 Report Posted February 11, 2016 I did one similar to this. Instead of painting in the white just leave the stripes natural and use a diluted dye for the red. Right now your colors are too bright and saturated to give the illusion of something worn out and yellowed. Plus, give your edges a more ragged look. I also made some depressions with a modeling tool so the antiquing would have places to settle in and give a bit of a mottled appearance.
