   John,

   Sulfur for patinas are available as liquid and solid and tends to make a more blackish/brownish finish than a verdigris finish. You can purchase patina supplies from most jewelry and metalworking speciality catalogs, such as Rio Grande in New Mexico. Also, I suggest Tim McCreight's The Complete Metalsmith for application techniques and just about anything else you might want to know about working with non-ferrous metals.

   Best,

   Seth

   I also think some craft shops carry things to tarnish brass.  Might be more accessible than a catalog.

   There is a product shown in April American Woodworker called Brass Ager from Phyllis Kennedy Hardware (800) 621-1245 or http://www.kennedyhardware.com.

   Hope this helps
