Does anyone foresee a problem with painting black-dyed boots brown ?
It's funny - I have black dyed shoes I want to paint brown AND brown-dyed shoes I'd like to paint black :roll:
BTW, thank you everyone for your responses. I wasn't expecting so many would answer 8) I do also plan to paint a belt and baldric red.
Mithras, I'd like to paint my LR boots black as well, but I also use them for late 2nd century. I wonder if black boots are known to have been worn that far back. Graham Sumner's books don't seem to indicate that they were. Otherwise, I'd do it :roll:
