About product

Grease Effect from Lifecolor

Grease comes to a model at the very end, at the moment the color layer is finished, the surface unified and nothing further will be applied over it. This shade aims at exactly that last step: at the dark oily traces around the places that are greased and oiled in reality.

Where it stands in the order of work

The order matters more here than with an ordinary shade. First the ground, the main tone, the shadows and highlights, then the unification of the surface and the dust effects, and only at the end the spot oily traces. Applied earlier, the following layers will cover them or wash them out and the work will go to waste. It is applied over small areas with the tip of the brush, never over the whole part, and it is better to add gradually than to put a lot on at once. A model with grease everywhere looks neglected rather than used.

Use

  • Oily traces around wheel hubs, pins and joints.
  • Darkening the places at grease nipples, hinges and brackets.
  • Traces running down the hull below the engine deck plates.
  • Soiling tools, chains and towing eyes at the very end.
  • Small accents on the chassis and in the area of the running gear.

Who the color is for

For modelers of military vehicles and machinery who are finishing the final phase and looking for a deliberate accent, not another all-over layer. It also serves on dioramas where it is meant to be clear at a glance which parts of a machine are in service.

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

FAQ

As one of the last steps. Once the color layer, the unification of the surface and the dust effects are finished, only then do the spot oily traces come.

The layers that would come after it would cover it or wash it out and the effect would disappear.

With the tip of the brush over small areas and gradually. Applied over the whole surface it looks neglected rather than like a machine in use.

At the wheel hubs, pins, hinges, grease nipples, chains and towing eyes, or as traces running down below the engine deck plates.
