Alkaline White is the perfect texture for creating landscapes on dry, chalky, and limestone soils. This texture captures shades ranging from light gray to an intense, unforgiving white that reflects the midday sun. Picture a desolate landscape, perhaps with the skull of an unfortunate cow or the burnt remains of a vehicle. With Alkaline White, you can set the scene and enhance it with your painting techniques. The only limit is your imagination!
As part of the Landscapes Textures collection in the Diorama FX line, Alkaline White is designed to help modelers create realistic bases without hassle. The texture includes a well-balanced combination of sand, gravel, and stones in carefully chosen sizes that mimic the effects of natural transitions, erosion, and terrain features. You no longer need to buy aquarium gravel or feel awkward collecting pebbles in the park. These textures are not only sized for accuracy but also colored to create the perfect atmosphere in your scenes, vignettes, and dioramas.
With seven different colors available in the Landscapes Textures range, you can easily combine them and enhance their finish with simple painting techniques. They are easy to apply and can be used directly over Thick Mud Textures, Ground Textures, or Earth Textures, depending on the theme of your project and the desired final effect. Alkaline White brings a unique, weathered look that makes your natural scenes come to life.
To fix the textures securely, you can use our Terrain Fixer, a fixing medium that works by capillary action to hold the sand or gravel textures in place, resulting in a matte finish. You can apply it with a pipette or dispenser, and it can be diluted with three parts Terrain Fixer to one part Airbrush Thinner or water for even better capillary action.
