Spot-On Pigment No. 27 Concrete Grey

Spot-On Pigment No. 27 Concrete Grey

A loose modeling pigment from the numbered Spot-On range by the manufacturer VMS. This item carries the sequence number No. 27 and the shade name Concrete Grey, that is concrete gray. It is the neutral gray link of the range, which complements the earth and rust shades wherever a model meets paved surfaces rather than soil.

Use

• Concrete dust on wheels, tracks and the lower parts of vehicles moving over paved surfaces.
• Gray deposits in the ruins of masonry, on rubble and in urban scenes.
• Unifying the tone of concrete slabs, airfield surfaces and loading ramps on bases and display boards.
• Cooling earth shades that came out too far toward brown.

Work tips

Concrete does not have a uniform color. It looks more convincing when the gray dust is applied unevenly, with darker places at the edges of the slabs and lighter ones in the middle. On the model itself, gray dust clings most to the lower parts and around the running gear, because that is where it rises from. Handle the transition from gray to the earth shades smoothly, so that it is clear where the machine moved over concrete and where it drove off into the terrain.

Who the pigment is for

• Modelers who display vehicles and aircraft on bases with concrete slabs.
• Builders of urban dioramas and scenes with demolished masonry.
• Modelers of modern vehicles operated mostly on paved roads.

This is a loose powder. Do not breathe it in, work in a well ventilated space and keep out of the reach of children.
