About product

What the sepia shade suits

Sepia is a warm brown tone somewhere between black and rust. On a model it manages what pure black cannot: it brings out seams, rivets and recesses without outlining them in a hard line, and it looks natural on wood, leather, ropes and on older paintwork. It therefore suits anywhere the shadow should be felt but should not look drawn in ink, that is mainly on figures, wooden surfaces and vehicles with a dusty coloring.

How it differs from a brush

The lead is held in the hand like a pencil, so the mark appears exactly where you put it and its strength is set by the pressure. That is an advantage on small chips on edges, on thin streaks below drain holes and on hairline scratches, which are hard to draw with a brush. The drawing stays dry, nothing runs anywhere and it can be assessed at leisure and added in layers.

Usage tips

  • work on finished and completely dry paintwork; a matte surface holds the mark better than a gloss one
  • keep the tip sharpened on fine abrasive paper, as a blunt lead draws a wide line
  • draw lightly and build up; the tone can be added, but is hard to take away
  • run the streaks from top to bottom, that is the direction water runs on the real subject
  • do the blending, any softening with water and the final fixing according to the instructions from the manufacturer
