I would be interested in knowing how to chemically patina brass and pewter. I know how to patina copper and zinc but not these metals. Thank you.

Did you try Mr. Budija's suggestion for the pewter? An inexpensive
and simple way that has been recommended by a couple of readers is a
wax rub like
Rub 'n Buff The Original Wax Metallic Finish
[link is to product info at MisterArt]. This sounds rather impermanent, but it's a tool you might want to try.
If you know how to patina zinc, please respond to one or more of the letters like 11584 and 31486 where people were looking for info on that. Thanks.
