That really looks good, especially the Light Mud when used to depict dried mud as seen on the tractor's inner fender. It saves time over the other method, which is plaster plus acrylic paint tint. The application through dabbing with a sponge looks to be the key technique, here. Thank you for the clip.
The mud seems to be a good product... I often mix a little real mud/soil/sand with it. My only gripe with this vid is that Vallejo make it seem like the tub is completely full, right to the top, with mud. Well my 4 large tubs were all about 2/3 full.
Been kinda torn on either getting the European or Russian mud for applying to rusted surfaces. I feel like the grey would work better as a contrast, but I also want to base with these, and my army is silver.
I have all these not tried them yet still using grount and plaster over the foam first waiting for it to all cure just now , this video has always interested me in the pebble used not sure if you would find am that out from a water source beach area but cool all the same
Como limpio despues el barro del pincel? Se puede enjuagar y lavar con agua y ya se retira todo o se necesita algo en especial? Incluso el que es thick mud and grass
Hello! Gloves are only if you want to avoid undesirable stains on your hands but a simple wash with water and soap makes the cleaning easily from your hands :)
Does the mud dry to the point that it can be highlighted with other acrylic paints? For example, if I wanted to use a mud as a primary base application for miniatures?
Hello WalashGo! The drying time depends on the humidity or ambient temperature but you must be able to touch it and feel the surface with a hard texture. Maybe... 24h if you want to be sure it cured/dry properly (also if you added a thick layer of product) 👍🏻
The "leaves" are in fact catkins from birch ou weeping willow. Check lower right part of this drawing : fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bouleau#/media/File:Illustration_Betula_pendula0.jpg Now it is still the good time to harvest them. I harvested mine one month ago on the side of the road and in a park. Break them with the hand, put them in a dish, and winnow them, the wind will blow away the seed part that is lighter and leave you with these "leaves". It is not very hard and not too long to do. There is some tutorials on how to do it on RUclips, but some people separate the "leaves" from the seed with some twizers... what a hard and boring work... it is better to winnow them for 10-20 minutes. The natural color is as you see it in the video, but they can be tinted. Personnally, I mix them with a little PVA and watered down cheap acrylic paint, and let them dry on a flat plastic surface, it makes some clump folliage to build trees. Some manufacturers of miniature trains sell them but they can be a bit expensive (maybe Noch ?). At one point Games Workshop also sold some (probably at some crasy price...).
I am an artist. I mostly just paint mud. / This stuff looks great. Not sure what uses I will have for it but I will get a couple bottles to dirty up some things. Question is, which mud to buy? Given the news these days, it will not matter which ones I buy. They will all be RUSSIAN!
Man it's 12 euros for 200 ml, if you sum paint, pva, sand and the time to mix it properly, this is way cheaper, also with pva to achive this level of 3d you need to do more levels (so more time, and more stuff) cause since pva is 80% water, it loses volume too easily. Of course you can do 1 level, and be happy with a simple result, nobody ever gonna judge a 'super glue + non painted sand' base, but this stuff is simply amazing and great cost value and for the time, you can't do it any better way.
Really like vallejo products. They're not expensive and look nice.
Shadenuat And heavy mud smells like chocolate!! Really!
@@luisenriquedeelias2767 Its not good for youre health to sniff the paint smell. Valejo paint does not smell that bad like Tamiya for instance.
@@statoilbensin2190 wait for real? i always smell the paints and washes and glue. i should probably stop

I use the dark Russian mud, great product keeps that wet look when dry.
Just ordered! I like the Musik, perfekt!

Not just natural, or even very natural, but very, very natural.
With some darker figments you could make a kick ass WWI trench diorama with this
That's why I looked for this
Wow this is amazing !I was looking for something like this to paint a diorama iam working on
Woohoo! Just in time then! 😁💪🏻

I need to get some of this. Note to self: don't store it next to the Nutella..
Hahahs! Be careful when preparing sandwiches, Mark! 🤪Thank you for your comment! :)
This is so relaxing...

Sehr gutes Beispiel für ein Diorama
I love it!

Puedes limpiarlo con agua corriente aunque siempre es mejor no dejarlos secar en las cerdas para evitar dañarlas :)
Love it and used it for my warhammer army
Just curious if you need gloves for small works, because it‘s not stated anywhere?
Nice greets

@@vallejocolors good to know! Thank you :)
My snow bases look awesome with this dark mud as underground :D
@@Totgeburt616 Yayy!! Good to know you had good results :D
Great video, do you think that 200ml of mud will be enough for 40cm x 40cm base?
It depends on the quantity and thickness you are interested in when you apply the product.
Im buying this its beutiful!
The music in this video is amazing! Artist's name?
Hi Jorge,
The music is Hydra.mp3. Thank you for your comments and sorry for the late reply.
Nice cows! Where did you get them?
Does the mud dry to the point that it can be highlighted with other acrylic paints? For example, if I wanted to use a mud as a primary base application for miniatures?
Yes, it dries solid
somebody been pruning grape vines
😂😂😂
Does this product take long to dry?
It depends on the humidity and temperature of the place/room/city you are using it.
How many time to be painted after put this ?

felicidades campeon un saludo desde ESPAÑA
Where do you get the leaves and turf and trees?
Get on EBay and look up reality in scale mats and leaves, you will find what you are looking for .
@@zabercrombie24 I took this advice and its legit. I would recommend doing this.
awesome😻
Can u use this on actual models, not dioramas?
Que gran detalle sería ponerlo en español también.
Vamos a intentar cambiar eso ;)

The river stone is not that brilliant here ...too rounded ...much better a cornered stone giving a spontaneous image of a natural rock ...
Come on man, it's only a twelve minute tutorial video showing the effects of the Vallejo Thick Mid products.
Please make the music stop. Please.
.....I'll help.....it's called YOUR VOLUME DIAL!
okay, heres a cheaper way of doing it.
paint, PVA and sand. there you go...

what is PVA may i ask, i never do diorama before
HL 17 pva is white glue, like school glue.
HL 17 like Elmer's glue, pva is the actual name and sounds cooler 😎
