Does Vincenza Leather have Color Variations?

[Grayland]

I hope you understand my question. I have an Aero in Brown FQHH. It has decent amount of color variation. I have a Shinki from GW and a Victory Hide from BK and they both have a lot of variation in the leather. Dark and light color in the same hide. I have a Shinki from Rainbow Country and the color is solid - almost a paint job. The GW and BK are more like a stain on wood, with the natural grain of the leather showing through.

I love the grain and drape of the Vincenza leather, but it appears to be very solid in color, more like a paint job? Is this the case?

When thurston originally started ordering vicenza leather, it had nice variation. Carrie wrote here recently that they started getting it with little variation.

As seen here, it was quite nice. http://www.thefedoralounge.com/thre...anned-horsehide-for-aero-jackets.77738/page-6

The seal Plainsman I had was loaded with color variance

Neither of my blacks have much variation

It's tough to tell with the darker colors, but the russet Vincenza appears very "flat". The jacket linked above does appear to have nice depth of color.

My russet had great depth of color, I think if you zoomed into a small area you'd see 3 or 4 shades of brown.

I think one of the difficulties in answering this question is that Vincenza has been evolving a great deal since its introduction.

I have a russet Vincenza Board Racer - not flat at all. Getting better every day.

The black is very solid, the seal and russet that I've seen have much more variety.

PAWINEGUY's seal Vicenza Premier HWM has fantastic richness and depth of color, perhaps the single nicest skin I have ever seen. I realize some will say Shinki, which HH I have never seen for comparison.
