About product

What it is

The stencil is laid on a surface, paint is sprayed over it and once it is taken off a pattern with crisp edges is left behind. By hand with a brush such a regular texture is slow to draw and never comes out evenly, whereas through a stencil you apply it in a moment and can repeat it as needed in several places in a scene.

Field of use

It saves the most work on the bases of dioramas: for suggesting the grain of wood, concrete, flaking plaster or coarse fabric. It also serves well on the surfaces of vehicles and buildings where the finish is meant to look worn, and on figures for suggesting the texture of cloth. The range includes sheets of various sizes and motifs, from wood grain to small irregular patches.

How to work with it

  • hold the stencil down over its whole area so that paint does not creep under it
  • spray perpendicular, from a short distance and in thin coats
  • heavily thinned paint creeps under the edge more readily than a denser spray
  • build the pattern up in several passes and let it become tacky between coats
  • clean the stencil right after use, while the paint is fresh

Painting tips

Try the spray on an offcut of plastic or on card first, so that you know how densely the paint goes through the cut-outs. The texture looks more natural if you do not lay it on evenly over the whole area but strengthen it in places and merely suggest it elsewhere. If you shift the stencil a little and spray lightly over it in a darker tone, an impression of depth appears.

Terms of supply

Paints, an airbrush and a model are not part of the delivery, unless stated otherwise.

The motif and the size are not stated here; they are stated on the box. Some items of the same range name both in the product name.

Hold it down over its whole area on the surface, spray perpendicular and in thin coats. Heavily thinned paint creeps under the edge far more readily.

Yes, provided you clean it right after spraying, while the paint is fresh. A dried coat narrows the cut-outs and the pattern goes blurred.

On an offcut of plastic or on a piece of card. You will find out how densely the paint goes through the cut-outs and avoid overspraying on the model itself.
