A project with many emotions...

Hello every one,

In this project I am going to ask you to help me step by step, it is a very important project, you see 35 years ago my cousin had a deadly crash in a Bonanza Beechcraft the one I am show bellow…

I got the model from MINICRAFT MODEL KITS 1/48 Bonanza #11676 that I would like to recreate exactly as the one in which my cousin and two more pilots got killed 35 years ago.

Now the first part is the interior which I would like to recreate the effect of leather, the interior was black with an orange stripe. I am planing to apply a coat of black paint and then after that do a dry brushed to highlight and then a wash, I think if I use a lighter color to do the wash will be ok, any suggestions to make the leather effect real will be appreciated
