Sepia is an oil paint intended for modelers, supplied in a tube with a volume of 20 ml. It is neither an acrylic nor an enamel, as the binder is oil, so it is thinned and blended with odorless thinner or mineral spirits rather than with water. The shade comes from the classic artist's pigment: a dark, slightly grayed brown, historically associated with sepia ink. This is a modeling paint, not a kit.
The main advantage of oil is its very slow drying, in a matter of days. What is usually a drawback with covering paints is a fundamental advantage here: the paint can be blended for a long time, feathered softly, muted or on the contrary strengthened, and the transitions fine-tuned until you are satisfied. Oil is therefore not used as a covering coat for a whole model but as a tool for effects and weathering.
Apply it over a cured painted surface, as on a smooth finish the excess paint can be blended and drawn off cleanly, whereas on a bare flat base the oil grips and can no longer be corrected. First let a drop of the paint drain on card or a paper towel: oil releases its binder and without this step an unsightly greasy halo forms around the mark. Only then pick the paint up with a brush and apply it. Blend with a clean, slightly dampened brush, after a few minutes or even after hours, as you have the time.
For modelers who want to take a model beyond a smooth coat of paint, whether on equipment, aircraft, figures or dioramas. Sepia belongs to the basic palette of shades to start with and takes combination with other earthy tones.
Safety: the paint is thinned with solvent thinners (mineral spirits, odorless thinner), so work in a ventilated room, protect your skin and eyes and keep out of the reach of children. Thinners are flammable, so do not use them near an open flame. Thinner is not included in the package.
