I just painted the breastplate portion last night and it looks really good. Tonight I will polish off the excess pigment, and seal it with the oil and beeswax and titanium dioxide and then I'll post pics. The casein and hide glue size and other ingredients really toughened up the leather too! And made it denser and a bit thinner. I am loving this project!!
