About product

Dark cork gravel, 100 g (HEKI)

A loose material for building terrain: crushed cork in a dark shade in a pack weighing 100 g. Against stone ballast cork is markedly lighter, so even a thick layer can be laid with it without adding weight to a diorama or a module. The dark shade suits freshly quarried stone, rubble and scree that are meant to look damp and newly exposed. The manufacturer is HEKI, a German brand of terrain-building materials.

How it is used

  • Paint the terrain first in a shade close to the result, so that the base does not show through
  • Scatter the gravel dry, spread it with a brush and only then fix it
  • Fix it with thinned PVA glue or with scatter glue, applying it drop by drop from a pipette
  • Once it has dried, add finer and coarser material so that the grain size is not monotonous

Who it is for

For builders of dioramas for plastic models and for model railroads as well, especially where a large volume of rubble or scree is needed without the added weight. Because cork is light, it also suits portable modules and display-case dioramas, which are carried about often and where every gram tells. The second advantage is coverage by volume: one pack covers an area that would take several times the weight in stone ballast. The material combines well with stone scatter, which adds coarser and shinier grains so that the area is not uniform.

The material is supplied on its own, without glue and without paints, unless stated otherwise. When working with a loose material, protect your airways and do not work in a draft, so that the dust is not blown about.

FAQ

Because of the weight. Cork weighs a fraction of what stone does, so a thick layer of rubble or scree can be laid with it without making a portable module or a diorama heavy.

Scatter it dry, spread it into shape and then apply thinned PVA glue or scatter glue. Apply it drop by drop from a pipette or a dropper, so that the surface is not washed apart. Fix it in several passes.

Yes. Best with a light overspray from a greater distance or with a thinned wash after fixing. The dark shade already matches damp or freshly quarried stone, so often it is enough just to pick out the edges.
