Hey fellow painters,

today I'm going to show you how to achieve a fairly neutral and contrasting black that will work very well on leather or slightly satin fabrics. For darker, more matte blacks, simply use a little less highlighting ;)

If you like this video, if you enjoy the free content on my channel, and if you want it to remain 100% public and 100% free, please remember to LIKE the videos, SUBSCRIBE, share, tell your friends, leave a little thank you in the comments from time to time, etc., etc… it's good for my well-being, my morale, and my motivation, for my channel as well as others 😘 And if you reuse my techniques on your miniatures to post on forums or social media, at least give a little credit and/or a link to the videos. It costs nothing and it's a small favor that's appreciated ;)

This video was a PATREON preview; my subscribers were able to see it more than 3 months before everyone else ;) If you'd like to support me and get access to the EXCLUSIVE VIDEOS (videos available to date can be viewed here:   / sujets-des-34470516   or here: https://www.facebook.com/pg/Minisocle..., feel free to check out my page!
