The Shield Maiden - Part 8: Painting Dark Leather on the Arm.

Leather is one of the most fun things to paint in miniature painting - and today Ben will show you how he paints the dark leather on the arm. The dark leather he paints in this part is different from the blouse and the Belt as Ben uses inks and washes only and then pushes the shadows with some contrasting glazes.
