How to Paint Leather || Textured Distressed Leather || Grimdark

[@TarantulaRookie]

The leve of detail here with such simple (simple in application not simple with brush control) is just outstanding. Amazing footage and brilliant guide.

[@TheFeralPainter]

Thank you very much!

[@vegaskatus]

Love seeing a good leather tutorial. I half expected to only watch part way through and get bored, but I watched the whole thing. It was very well done, thank you!

[@TheFeralPainter]

Glad it was helpful! And thanks so much for the kind words! Really means alot

[@DigininjaRobin]

Second time I've watched this. This time I've taken notes and have models to try this out on. If I can get it looking half as good as yours I'll be happy.

[@TheFeralPainter]

Just take time. Practice building up and thinning and getting those line nice and thin x

[@DigininjaRobin]

@@TheFeralPainter I've got six ogres who are going to have leather pants, boots, and any other bits I can do. I've also got a few Stormcasts who aren't going to be very lore compliant when I've finished with them!

[@Tipperbodda]

I love painting leather and this has only given me more help and inspiration as always. Cheers man. Also would love to see you do some daemons in the future, maybe slaanesh or tzeentch grimdark I think you'd nail it

[@TheFeralPainter]

Great suggestion! Im working on some flesh easters atm! Ill probs do more of that stuff as i like painting it now and again. Get bord of armour hahah

[@bgolden74]

Absolutely amazing! Great technique! I can't believe the outcome. Looks fantastic!

[@TheFeralPainter]

Thank you! Cheers!

Finally someone has the skillz to make a comprehensive how-to-leather-cloaks video. Underrated channel for sure. But as i've sad to other, similar, small channels: "Some of the best mini-hobby channels i've found rarely have over 10K subs. They are the hidden gold veins for those who know where to dig".

[@TheFeralPainter]

Thanks so so much man! Really means alot saying that! Thanks so so much! But yes some of the smaller channels defiantly dont get the traction they deserve

[@alex-c7567]

Looks great! I need to try this on my Gutrippaz.

[@TheFeralPainter]

Go for it!

[@romanroinar4202]

You are a real wizard! Thanks for the amazing tutorials, your vision of grimdark is magnificent

[@TheFeralPainter]

Glad you like them!

[@robyounce644]

First time catching one of your videos great tutorial, also I have never seen anyone use their middle finger to make the sweeping motion. That was a great tip!

[@TheFeralPainter]

Glad it was helpful!

[@flips300021]

Been watching many of your video's. All great! You can't beat a bit of Grimdark! This one is, Beautiful leather! And thanks. You should have more sub's. Hope you get to the halfway mark soon, and then will be quicker to the magic 100,000 👍. Ps. Enjoy the coffee, on me. Or put towards something.

[@TheFeralPainter]

Hay man! Massive massive thanks for the support it really means alot! Thanks so so much.

[@duacot6633]

This is probably the best example I have seen to paint weathered leather. Very nicely done!!

[@TheFeralPainter]

Thanks so much

[@johnnyroyal6404]

it is magical

[@TheFeralPainter]

Thanks so much!

[@G_Threepwood]

Great tutorial matey. The point about back and forth is something I wish I'd learned earlier

[@TheFeralPainter]

Glad it was helpful!

[@CaptainSpalding23]

Excellent stuff. Thank you for sharing!

[@TheFeralPainter]

Thank you! Will do!

[@brockvenator2299]

I've always struggled painting leather... Saw an old masterclass article in an Inquisitor 'Exterminatus' supplement recently that showed how to paint leather by using washing up liquid to break the surface tension of glazes for real looking leather. Really interested to see what you do, as it'd great to have different methods for such things.

[@TheFeralPainter]

Hopefully u get something from this. Its quite easy tbh. Just a lots of squiggles and glazes. Can do it quite fast

[@brockvenator2299]

Thanks, I've got loads of orks to paint and I want them all wearing leather so sure this'll be really helpful, cheers

[@Hudston]

Sometimes I forget that we used to use stuff like washing up liquid and floor polish to make washes! The hobby was a different beast back then...

[@hellblazer_original]

First layer: Hey, that actually already looks like leather. 2nd layer: Oh wow, now it is so leathery. 3rd layer: My god, this is magic. 4th layer: OMG wtf how did I fuck that up so hard??? (that´s just me, I guess. Awesome tutorial, nice channel, subbed :) )

[@TheFeralPainter]

Awww thanks man means alot

[@speaktome4778]

Perfect timing! I'm a big fan of the grimdark style and just got to the point where I need to paint up the leather bits. Thanks for all the tips! Just curious but what colors would you use to create weathering on black leather? Blues and greys maybe?

[@TheFeralPainter]

Any coulor for weathering dude just depends on the environment there in

[@CaPtInFOOSHSAck]

Great job brother! Thanks for the video man!

[@TheFeralPainter]

No problem 👍

[@Bartoszeg02]

Fantastic effect! I will try to reproduce it :)

[@TheFeralPainter]

I love this type of texture when its used on minis for things like cloth and leather. Great video!

Let’s gooo. Looks great man

Cheers dude

[@Silkyfin_]

Amazing tutorial as always! Leather is a very difficult material to paint for me so this is super helpful! Also, quick question. What mini do you use in this tutorial? The cape looks really cool!

[@TheFeralPainter]

Big thanks and its abaddon the despoilers cape

What colors would be best to use if I want to make black leather

[@TheFeralPainter]

Black and greys

[@thelonepainter4760]

Awesome job!😊

[@sergeil1235]

stunning painting! would you say please, can we use an airbrush for glaze in this case?

[@TheFeralPainter]

Yes you can!

[@patrickvd7587]

Great video. Thank you!

[@TheFeralPainter]

Glad you liked it!

[@rain4825]

I mean, of course flesh tones makes sense, leather is skin after all.

[@grimdarkly]

What advice can you give if my END GOAL is what you had on the interior? I want my finalized cape to look like your inside looked at 1:48, very dark with a smaller inference of the brown… did you do the inside of your cape in alternative steps or anything?

[@TheFeralPainter]

Same but didnt go as bright with the coulors, and less scratches. Also you can knock it back useing glases too ✌🏼✌🏼

[@grimdarkly]

@@TheFeralPainter can’t wait to try. My models are dark brown/black in their ceramite so I can’t go too close to the full brown effect otherwise it gets very close to matching the armor color, but still wanted it to be clear it’s “brown” leather, so that tone inside your cape is PERFECTION. Thank you for this!

[@grimdarkly]

@@TheFeralPainter so to clarify something like doing a couple passes of mournfang and NOT going up to xv88 and then doing the mournfang glazing and rhinox glazing steps?

[@denmasterben2348]

That's AWESOME!!!!

[@TheFeralPainter]

Thanks man

terracotta is a good alternative to xv 88 for those who didn't know this citadel brown. Love this tutorial btw - thank you. copied then did my version, love your style of teaching too. must have watched this 15-20 times. maybe one day i can be produce something half as good as this.

[@TheFeralPainter]

Thanks for sharing your tips man! And also thanks so so much for the mind words! Im sure urll smash it 👌🏻👌🏻

Knocked it out the park! I'm actually looking forward to trying the next mini with alot of leather seeing this. Thank you for the great content as always!🤘🏻

Awesome! Thank you!

Push the back of the GW paint lid down to stop them drying out. 👍 I'm sure it's intentional. 😐

Also would this work on fur live a space wolf?

[@TheFeralPainter]

No it wouldnt, but would work on a ultra marine. Haha jokes. Yes will work on anything

[@adamgriffiths1703]

That looked insanely good. I’m going to have to go back over the leather pouches and straps on my Sons of Horus marines now.

Found if you find it hard to use a brush then use a tiny piece of sponge and build up layers getting lighter. Gives great scratch effects too
