I have a wild boar that I'm in the process of finishing. This hog has some light colors and when dried they faded some what. Any suggestions on painting to get the color back?
Thanks!

Yep,, you will need to paint the skin anyway, wipe the paint out of the hair with a paper towel AFTER the paint has dried.

Its kinda of a whitish color on the bottom and a blackish color on the top. The black is no problem, I'm having trouble with the white color on the bottom...
