Almar, that looks fan-frigin-tastic!
Since you were asking others how they did it, why don't you take a few minutes and explain how you did it...
thanks in advance!

This was the look I was looking for and I think it turned out really well. Used my own jeans as an example, which would look so much better if MJ was wearing them btw. Finished it off with a matt clear coat.
Oh and I also painted the toe nails.

Awesome work. Way way better than the original.

I used the technique mentioned by Leonard, but I used different colors. I used Revell SM 371 enamel paint to get the stonewashed effect. And then layer after layer........until you get the desired effect.
I used the original color as a base.
It might help if you use real jeans as an example.
