About product

Pure Metal Pigments BRONZE from Green Stuff World

A metal pigment from the Pure Metal Pigments line. The difference from ordinary metallic paint is fundamental: metallic paint is a binder with particles dispersed in it and the sheen only arises within the coat. A metal pigment, by contrast, is laid directly onto the surface, and when it is burnished the individual particles level out into a continuous surface that behaves like real metal. The bronze shade is a warm golden-brown tone of bronze, the color of gun barrels, bell metal, fittings, statues and old machine parts.

How to work with it

  • The surface must be smooth and matte; every sanding mark or coarse primer will show through the metal.
  • A dark base under the pigment deepens the contrast and makes the metal look denser.
  • Apply the pigment dry with a soft brush or with a finger through a cloth, and then burnish it with a circular motion; only burnishing creates the metallic sheen.
  • Do not deliberately put pigment into recesses and engraved lines; it is precisely the contrast of a burnished surface and a dark shadow that creates the impression of metal.
  • If you want to seal the surface, bear in mind that varnish always reduces the sheen to some extent; on exposed places it is better to repeat the burnishing than to varnish.

Where bronze fits

On historical models on guns, fittings and ship fittings, on figures on armor, buckles and jewelry, on busts on plinths and accessories. Bronze goes naturally with patina; a greenish verdigris or a dark wash in the recesses will underline the age of a casting.

Who it is for

For figure painters, bust collectors and modelers who want metal surfaces that cannot be imitated with paint. It calls for a little patience in preparing the surface, but the result is incomparable.

A modeling material, not a toy. Keep out of the reach of children, work in a well-ventilated space and do not breathe it in.

FAQ

Metallic paint has its metal particles enclosed in a binder, so the sheen is always subdued. A metal pigment is laid onto the surface and after burnishing forms a continuous metal surface with a considerably higher sheen.

You do not, but without sealing it rubs off exposed places over time. Sealing varnish always takes away part of the sheen, so it is better to pick the model up by its base and repeat the burnishing as needed.

Smooth, matte and rather dark. A coarse surface shows through the metal and a light surface flattens the effect.

Yes, and with bronze it makes particular sense. A dark wash or a greenish verdigris in the recesses creates the impression of an old casting and strengthens the contrast with the burnished surface.
