Nanuq Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 I had some pale yellow Yuki hands and wanted to darken them a bit. So I made some espresso and applied the crema with a q-tip and let it dissolve and soak in. It gave a blotchy appearance and tinted darker around the edges, and made the steel of the hands look slightly corroded too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
