The Dark Earth (Art. 26218) is a thick, dense texture paste with a dark brown color, ideal for replicating the moist, dark soils of forests and fields in Central Europe. This versatile paste is perfect for creating realistic ground textures in dioramas and vignettes, whether you're depicting muddy paths, forest landscapes, or damp meadows.
Dark Earth can be easily applied with a brush, palette knife, or other tools, giving you full control over terrain building. Its thick consistency allows you to create rough, realistic textures that, once dried, form a sturdy, dense surface. This makes it perfect for representing damp, dark ground layers found in forests, muddy roads, or wet fields.
The paste dries in about 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the thickness of the layer. It can also be diluted with 20% to 40% water to achieve a smoother finish or to add subtler details. Dark Earth can be combined with other products in the Diorama FX range to enhance realism, such as adding vehicle tracks or footprints in the mud.
The Diorama FX range provides modelers with everything they need to create lifelike environments and landscapes, from dusty roads to muddy paths and moist grounds. With Dark Earth, you can accurately recreate the texture and color of dark, moist earth, adding a new dimension of realism to your dioramas.
Additionally, Dark Earth is completely safe to use. The product contains no solvents and is non-flammable, making it suitable for all ages and safe for use in enclosed spaces. Please refer to the product's safety information for more details.
Packaged in a 200 ml (6.76 fl oz) pot, this paste is ideal for small to medium-sized projects. Use Dark Earth to create impressive, realistic terrains and ground textures that bring your dioramas to life.
