I know it's just a product demo but I would've removed just a 10% and done 😂😂 it looked beautiful. I would've even fixed those scraped chunks of paste that looked so beautiful and earthy instead of blowing them 😂. Great stuff VMS I love your varnish! Best on the market
I deeply appreciate the mud and dust effects on my AFV kits and dioramas, although I sometimes go overboard. In the past, I’ve experimented with acrylic, enamel, and oil-based products to replicate these effects, but I’ve never been delighted with the results. The Alkyd binder method seems promising, and I’m eager to explore it further.
Hi, Alkyds look even better in reality. I advise you take some spare tank road wheels, paint them and experiment on them, this is a lot of fun and a great way to get the hang of things before you move on to an actual model. Thanks a lot for your feedback, Chris
On matte varnish the removal is a bit harder and the surface may be a bit more susceptible to pigments, that is change the shade more, but it should be OK. Varnishing over pigment jobs is always leading to a huge difference in appearance, not advised - the binders already hold your pigments in place.
Yes, you can reuse it no problem, either use bigger chunks which make great texturing material for a diorama or just crush them back to powder form. BTW our jars hold 45 ml (biggest in the industry) so it's not like you will run out quickly even if you use them a lot.

Will I get the same with matt varnish? Or can I varnish after the mud or will it destroy the appearance?

Why put so much on the model if you’re only going to scrape it off?
It's a sacrificial layer. Through this removal we replicate what is happening to actual mud flaking off of a vehicle.
@@Vmssupplies is the removed pigment reusable? I wouldnt feel good about "wasting" so much of your good pigments
