About product

4BO Deep Shade from Lifecolor

Depth on a model is not made by adding black but by laying the same tone down darker. The shade is the dark position of the Soviet green 4BO and belongs to the phase in which the model already has its main color and the drawing of space begins on it.

Where it stands in the order of work

The most usual route is to apply it after the main tone and before the brightening: into the space under the mudguards, between the road wheels, under superstructures and into every corner the light would not reach in reality. There is, however, also the reverse order, in which the dark position is laid down first and the main tone is then applied so that it stays showing through in the hollows and around the detail. Both routes lead to the same end and differ only in whether the modeler trusts their drawing or their control of thin coats more. The same numbered line also holds the light variant 4BO Flashed Shade, which follows on from this step.

Use

  • The shadow layer in hollows, joints and under overhangs.
  • A dark ground over which the main tone is applied only in part.
  • Separating superstructures, crates and tools from the surface of the hull.
  • The darkest step in the modulation of large surfaces.

Who the color is for

For modelers of Soviet and Eastern vehicles who build color in steps and do not want to reach for an alien color for the shadow. It also suits work in smaller scales, where the shadow has to be pronounced to be visible at all.

Stir the bottle well before use, close it well after work and store it out of the reach of children.

FAQ

Both make sense. After the main tone it is used as a deliberate drawing of shadows, before it as a dark ground that is then left showing partly through.

Under the mudguards, between the road wheels, under superstructures and into the joints the light would not reach in reality.

The brightening of exposed surfaces, then the unification of the surface and finally weathering and dust.

No. The brand offers the main tone and the light variant in the same numbered line, so the whole shading stays within one family of shades.
