Dry Application
- Pick up a small amount of pigment with a dry, soft brush. First, tap off any excess away from the model.
- Work the pigment into the desired area and gradually blend it out until it fades away. Build up the intensity in thin layers.
- For a loose, easily adjustable dust effect, you can leave it unfixed. For models intended for handling, fix it in place.
- For permanent fixation, allow AK048 Pigment Fixer to soak into the pigment via capillary action; do not smear the pigment with a brush.
Wet Application
- Mix the pigment with AK048 Pigment Fixer or a suitable white spirit to form a thin mixture, paste, or paste-like consistency, depending on the desired texture.
- Apply the mixture to seams, around details, on the chassis, or on terrain. After it has partially dried, you can soften the edges with a clean brush.
- Once completely dry, check the shade. Wet pigments appear darker; once dry, they return to a color closer to their dry state.
