About product

A medium grain for rutted terrain

The medium grade is the compromise that works most often on a diorama: the individual grains can already be told apart, but they still do not look like fields of stone. In a dark brown tone they make a surface soaked with water and oil, of the kind found in working yards, on logging roads and in places where heavy machinery has passed again and again.

Typical situations

  • track ballast in the middle scales, where the grain is meant to be visible
  • a rutted road with the tracks of wheels in which water stands
  • a muddy surface around a workshop, a garage or a field repair shop
  • fill around a culvert and at the foot of an embankment

It is with the dark browns that working in two layers pays off. The lower one is spread thickly and fixed, while the second is then scattered thinly only into the ruts and hollows, so that an uneven texture arises of the kind a really rutted surface has. The solution of glue and water is left to soak in from the edge; a thick syrup on the surface creates a gloss that is hard to get rid of. Only once it is dry do washes, pigments and possibly a gloss varnish for puddles come in turn.

The material can be mixed without any trouble with a finer scatter of the same shade; the fine grade fills the gaps and the layer then looks settled. The bag holds 353 cm³.

With fill around a culvert one more step helps: before you fix the area, press the track of a wheel or of a crawler into the damp material. The imprint will last even after drying and will explain why the surface is packed in one place and loose next to it.

FAQ

Where the grain is meant to be visible, that is in the larger scales and on surfaces close up, which the viewer looks at first.

It holds 353 cm³ of loose material.

Fix the lower layer over the whole area and scatter the second dose only into the ruts and hollows, so that the surface is not the same everywhere.

Yes, a finer grain fills the gaps between the coarser ones and the result looks settled and natural.
