This will depend on the leather.
Acrylic will adhere to leather (and just about anything else) with no problem.
Are you airbrushing or using regular brushes. Either way don't put it on too thick!!
If the leather is pourous (not shiny) you won't have a problem with cracking. If not you can use a 3M pad to skuff up the surface first (take the shine away) and cracking will be minimal.
Use an acrylic sealer over your finished project....lightly!
