For the texture, get a Dremel and sume cutters and get busy. A little imagination will take you a long way.

As for the color, ask 10 guys, get 12 answers. I've heard Rit fabric dye, Fiebing's leather dye, coffee grounds, iron filings, etc etc etc. No matter what someone tells you, your results with their process will likely be something different from what they achieved. Again, imagination and experimentation ....
