About the product
This texturing paste offers a reliable, ready-to-use foundation for any earth landscape on your models. Its specific color tone perfectly captures the look of sun-baked, moistureless topsoil common in both European summer landscapes and arid desert environments. The paste features an optimal creamy consistency that spreads smoothly without running, ensuring you can sculpt crisp ridges, ditch lines, or realistic track indentations without losing definition. It delivers absolute opaque coverage in a single coat. Once fully cured, it forms a durable, hard-wearing crust that easily accepts subsequent oil- or enamel-based weathering products without lifting or dissolving.
Features
- Autentic macro-texture of fine sand and soil integrated directly into a flexible, durable acrylic binder
- Volume-stable formula ensures the paste will not shrink, sag, or develop unsightly cracks during the drying process
- Fully compatible with all types of model pigments, washes, and fluid effects for advanced multi-layered weathering

Tips and tricks
| Category | Description |
|---|---|
| Use | Diorama groundworks, display bases for armor, wargaming terrain boards, and lower hull textures on vehicles |
| Advantages | Extremely easy to shape, generous tub volume for larger scenery projects, and a realistic matte appearance right out of the pot. |
| Weaknesses | Requires extended drying times when applied in heavy, volumetric masses, making it best to let it cure undisturbed overnight. |
| Combination | Light dust weathering pigments, dark acrylic or enamel washes for deep soil stitchening, small landscape rocks, and patches of parched static grass. |
| Tip | Apply the paste directly using an old flat brush, a palette knife, or a hobby spatula. To achieve a perfectly natural, irregular look, lightly stipple the wet surface with a stiff-bristled brush to break up any smooth tool marks. If you want to add wheel or track ruts, let the paste set for about 15 to 20 minutes until it becomes slightly tacky, then gently press your model or loose tires into it. Once completely dry, blend it into your scenery by running a darker wash into the recesses to simulate damp soil pockets and dry-brush the raised areas with a light pigment. |
