Saddle Brown is a mid-dark brown with a slight red cast – the exact tone of horse tack and a riding saddle. It is darker than Leather Brown, so it needs no undercoat beneath it.

Frequently asked questions
Saddle Brown or Leather Brown?
Leather Brown is lighter and more versatile. Reach for Saddle Brown when leather should read heavy and dark – saddles, harness and thick straps.
How do I thin it?
With water or an AK thinner. A few drops are enough for brush work; airbrushing needs more – AK thinners and cleaners are made for that. With acrylics, two thin coats always beat one thick one.
Is the finish really matt?
Yes, the 3rd Generation range dries matt. To protect the figure or even out the sheen, seal it with a matt varnish at the end.
The full range is in the AK 3rd Generation category.
