Aging Enamel Powder Medium Skin Tone

The U-STAR Aging Enamel Powder Medium Skin Tone pigment

A loose pigment colorant from the Aging Enamel Powder range of the U-STAR brand. The name of the shade given in the name of the product refers to the flesh range, but it does not limit the use of the powder in any way. Check the volume, the composition and the recommended further processing on the box.

Small areas and fine toning

On figures and busts you work differently than on vehicles. The areas are small and curved and a mistake shows on them at once, because the viewer looks from close up and concentrates on exactly those places. So apply the pigment here in a genuinely minimal amount, and rather three times than once. A proven method is to take most of the powder off onto paper first and to touch the surface only with what is left on the brush.

Hold also to the principle that a pigment on a figure should remain an addition, not the main means. Create the basic modeling with paint and use the pigment only for refining, where you want to shift a tone slightly or soften a transition. Try the method before work on a casting that did not come out, or on a less visible part, so that you know how strongly the powder will show on the base in question.

Use

• weathering and fine toning of figures, busts and the small parts of models
• applied in a minimal amount; take the excess off onto paper beforehand
• it complements painting with paint, it does not replace it
• try the method on a less visible place first

Who the pigment is for

For builders of figures and busts who want to refine a finished paint job with no risk of painting over it. It also finds a use on the small parts of ordinary models, where you have to work sensitively and in small doses.

A loose powder: do not inhale it, work over a surface and out of a draft, and wash your hands after work. Keep out of the reach of children.
