About product

Crackle Paint Badlands 60 ml (Green Stuff World)

A crackling water-based paint in a package with a volume of 60 milliliters. It is applied straight from the bottle and as it dries it tears itself into a network of cracks that recall a dried-out bed or cracked clay. The effect comes about in one step, and no second component and no activator are needed.

Use

  • Prime the surface matte, and on a very smooth area roughen it lightly
  • Apply the paint straight from the bottle, with a brush or a spatula
  • Control the size of the cracks by the thickness of the layer: a heavier application gives coarser cracks
  • Let it dry freely, with no heat gun and no blowing
  • Fix the finished effect with varnish, otherwise the surface crumbles in time

What to watch out for

The result cannot be predicted exactly, because the cracks form by themselves according to the thickness of the layer, the shape of the surface and the temperature in the room. On small and busy areas the cracks tend to differ from those on a flat board, so try the effect out on an offcut first. Accelerated drying is the most common cause of a poor result: the layer dries from the top before it has a chance to crack.

Who it is for

  • Builders of dioramas with dry, cracked ground
  • Figure painters who build bases with a parched soil effect
  • Modelers looking for a texture that cannot be imitated with a brush
  • Builders of scenes with peeling plaster and a cracked surface

Once dry, the cracked surface can be tinted further: pigments and a wash sink into the cracks and bring out their depth.

You cannot. Accelerated drying ruins the effect; the layer has to dry freely.
