Vallejo Pigment FX 73113 Light Slate Grey Color (35 ml)

Vallejo Pigment FX 73113 Light Slate Grey (35 ml) is a fine powdered Vallejo Pigment FX in a light slate gray shade. 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 more pronounced marks around exhausts, weapons, engines, and metal parts.

Work with the pigments gradually and in small amounts. Dry application is well-suited for light dusting and evening out the surface, while wet application is better 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.
