I mix a small pot of white and a small pot of black. The I paint a THIN coat of one of the browns on the object, then a THIN coat of another brown. Then I mix browns/white/black all in different proportions and dry brush on top of the object. The aim is to get different shades of brown. Finally a thin black or dark grey highlight wash for the grain. Sounds difficult, but it is not really. Hope that was of help to you, and good luck.
