The Russian Mud (Art. 26808) is a thick, dark mud texture paste that accurately replicates the distinctive black earth of Eastern Europe and southern Russia. Known for its depth and density, this mud paste contains traces of vegetation, adding to its realistic texture. Russian Mud is perfect for recreating the fertile, moist soils commonly found in the regions of Ukraine, southern Russia, and other parts of Eastern Europe.
The Russian Mud paste can be easily applied with a brush, palette knife, or other tools, depending on the desired effect. Its thick, dense nature allows you to create rich, muddy terrains ideal for military dioramas, agricultural scenes, or wet forest areas. The added traces of vegetation enhance the realism, making the terrain look more natural and detailed.
Russian Mud dries in approximately 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the thickness of the applied layer. If more depth and texture are needed, additional layers can be applied. For a softer or less coarse finish, the paste can be diluted with 20% to 40% water. This product can also be combined with other textures from the Diorama FX range, such as snow or grass, to add more realism and variety to your dioramas.
The Diorama FX range provides modelers with everything they need to create lifelike environments and landscapes. With Russian Mud, you can authentically replicate the iconic black earth of Eastern Europe, giving your dioramas an authentic, detailed character.
Additionally, Russian Mud 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.
This paste is available in a 200 ml (6.76 fl oz) pot, ideal for small to medium-sized projects. Use Russian Mud to create realistic, muddy landscapes perfect for military scenes, agricultural settings, or wet forest environments.
