brennen Report post Posted November 20, 2018 I have some leather armor that I got online cause I thought it would be easy to match the colors by dyeing it or what not, but I have no idea how to go about it. Is there a way to match the colors on finished leather armor? The colors vary from different browns. https://imgur.com/EOcshSk https://imgur.com/2InTees Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
immiketoo Report post Posted November 20, 2018 The only way to do it is to pick the darkest piece and then match to that. I'd start by stripping the finish with deglaze, then airbrushing walnut dye diluted 50/50 with denatured alcohol on a discreet area of the armor until you got close to the piece you selected to match. Don't math it exactly or it will be too dark when you add the finish. It may take some trial and error on pieces that can't be seen. You might also need to use a different color for different pieces. Ultimately, dark colors like chocolate and black may be your only options for making everything look the same. Good luck. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
