Brand: Vallejo

Vallejo Pigment FX 73116 Carbon Black (Smoke Black) (35 ml) is a fine powdered Vallejo Pigment FX in the shade of carbon black / smoke black. Use it for soot, smoke trails, weathered metal parts, shading light areas, and subtly blending technical details.

Apply the pigment in small amounts. Dry application creates a fine dust, smoke, or grime effect; wet application helps create heavier marks around exhausts, weapons, engines, and metal parts.

Technical Information and Recommendations

  • Type: fine powder pigment for model patina
  • Volume: 35 ml
  • Uses: dust, soil, rust, soot, smoke, leaves, patina, terrain, and dioramas
  • Dry application: brush, dabbing, rubbing into the surface, and gradual layering
  • Wet application: mix with Pigment Binder 26233 or a small amount of water to achieve the desired consistency
  • Surface: Looks most natural on a matte or soft satin finish
  • Fixation: a fixative or a very light coat of varnish; varnish may darken the pigment and partially alter the final shade
  • Combinations: Wash FX, Weathering FX, and Diorama FX
  • Base colors: Model Color, Model Air, or Surface Primer
  • Tools: model-making brushes

Work with the pigments gradually and in small amounts. Dry application works well for a light dusting and to even out the surface, while wet application is suitable for thicker layers, mud, rust, or deposits. Before final fixation, it’s a good idea to test the result on an inconspicuous area, as both the varnish and the fixative can make the pigment appear darker.
