Enamel Effects (35 Ml)
Enamel Effects – Dust, Mud, Oil and Operational Grime
Enamel Effects are modelling products designed to create specific weathering effects – from fine dust and earth to mud and greasy grime, as well as fuel stains, fresh oil and wet surfaces. They help give vehicles, miniatures, terrain and dioramas the appearance of models that have seen real use.
Thanks to their longer working time, enamel effects can be blended, softened and adjusted after application to create smooth, natural transitions. Choose products primarily according to the environment and type of weathering you want to recreate on your model.
Light Dust, North Africa Dust, Earth and Kursk Soil are ideal for creating dusty and earthy weathering. Use them on undercarriages, wheels, tracks, lower vehicle surfaces, terrain and dioramas.
Fresh Mud, Dark Mud and Damp Earth help create the appearance of fresh or dark soil and damp weathering. These effects can be layered and combined with dust and other earthy tones.
Engine Grime, Fresh Engine Oil and Fuel Stains are designed to recreate operational grime around engines, transmissions, maintenance areas, fuel filler points and other places where grease or fluids may accumulate.
Slimy Grime Light and Dark can be used to create lighter and darker deposits of grime, damp areas and surfaces exposed to prolonged environmental effects.
Wet Effects helps create the appearance of moisture and wet surfaces. It is ideal for wet mud, earth, puddles and areas of a model exposed to water and rain.
Scratches Effects is a useful product for creating fine scratches, worn edges and chipped paint where you want to reproduce mechanical wear on a surface.
Start by imagining the environment in which your model operates. A vehicle in a dry environment may primarily need dust and earth, an off-road vehicle may require mud and damp soil, while a heavily used machine can benefit from oil, fuel stains or greasy grime. Start with one or two effects and apply them in thin layers. Enamel products can be softened, blended and adjusted as you work using a brush lightly moistened with a suitable enamel thinner.
