Yesterday and this morning i spend colouring the chairs with acrylic markers. Added several layers. It is not as clean as paint but it does give it a weathered design. It is taking me much longer but i really like it this way. The chairs are a bit wobbly and the tabs of the backrest don’t fit in properly so u glued the part together.

Oh very nice work! I’m gonna get some markers too I’ve always just painted with a brush but it’s gets annoying with small parts.

You’ve colored the chair well and they’re nice colors. 
I didn’t know markers are also good in coloring woods. I often use acrylic paint.

@Jerry_Boswijk it looks great! I also use markers for small paint jobs & little touch~ups. Those small chairs looks like a lot of patience

It went quite fast but they were a little unstable so i glues them. The colouring was really easy

You have different size tips for these markers. The one i i have in this colour is a little bit to large to get into al the curves of the side of the chair so a brush might be helpful but this is what i had available for now.

I can’t afford paint riggt now and had the markers. I have used them before on unpainted plain wood models never on painted wood but it works oke. I did samd them
Does the marker bleeds when use on the woods? Just curious since I didn’t try yet.

Good job, @Jerry_Boswijk!! That weathered look turned out really nice!
The acrylic markers add so much character, and taking the extra time definitely paid off
Thanks and they work really well.
