Vallejo - Diorama FX Thick Mud | European Mud 200 ml (6.76 fl.oz.) | Premium Acrylic Color For Modelers & Miniature Enthusiasts

Great product - you get a large volume of the basing material for your money, so a great value. The texture is just rough enough to give a good impression of dirt and earth, and it is very easy to spread with a sculpting tool. The color is pretty bland, but it takes on spray primer really well and looks great when you paint it your color of choice anyways (and the texture takes a drybrush really well too!). It takes more work to put this down on mini bases than a quick dip of glue and sand, but this is INFINITELY cleaner and less frustrating to deal with. It dries pretty quickly and adheres very nicely to bare plastic without needing a primer coat - but also scrapes off easily enough in case you get some on your model. Trust me - one spill of your basing sand and you'll become Anakin Skywalker very quickly - switch to this stuff and you'll never look back!

Nice, thick texture with a variety of material (thick brown paste along with plenty of thin 'twig' pieces mixed in) that works very well to simulate mud if you don't want to mix up anything yourself. It all has a flat brown texture which is a burnt/raw umber color. Needs a bit of drybrushing to bring out the texture but that's to be expected. Great for basing models in muddy terrain.

Great texture paint, used to paint bases for miniatures and it can still look wet even when dry(though it isn’t fully in places in this picture). Large quantity for a good price.

Quality looking mud for miniatures

Vallejo products have always been solid. They need to figure out their branding so it's not so confusing, but the actual mud worked great.

Overall I enjoy this product and it works well. A few recommendations:1. Prime with olive colored primer first. The first coat of this product and the paint in it is semi transparent.2. Use a throw away brush or your fingers. It’ll wreck your brushes from the solids in this product.3. Add water when using to help coverage.4. Stipple after application of the product to remove brush lines.

This stuff is amazing. Quick coverage and easy to work with. This is the sand color not the European mud but they work the same.

This is a mid-brown texture paint for miniature bases and dioramas. Its way more cost effective than Citadel texture paints.
