About product

HEKI Gauge Neutral groundcover, dark brown, 85 g

A fine loose scatter from the German maker HEKI for creating damp and fertile soil on dioramas. The dark brown shade stands in for freshly broken clay, muddy ruts, forest litter and the edges of ditches. The Gauge Neutral line is not tied to a single model railroad gauge, so the same material will serve on a display scene with vehicles and with figures. The pack holds 85 g.

What the material is for

Dark soil gives a scene contrast. It is used where the terrain is to appear damp or freshly disturbed: in ruts left by tracks, in deep prints, under trees and in places where water stands. Paired with lighter soil it creates a natural transition between a dried-out surface and a damp subsoil. The fine grain doses well even onto small areas around figures and can be poured straight into a rut with the tip of a folded sheet of paper.

Use

  • Coat the base with thinned PVA glue and pour the scatter on dry.
  • Concentrate the dark shade in hollows and prints and leave the light one on the ridges.
  • Fix it with thinned glue and a drop of dish soap.
  • Bring out the damp impression with gloss varnish or modeling water.

Who it is for

For builders of dioramas and model landscape who work with the contrast between dry and damp soil.

This is a loose material. Work in a well ventilated space, avoid breathing in the dust and keep it out of the reach of children.

FAQ

Into hollows, tracked ruts and prints, under trees and at the edges of ditches, that is, where the terrain is to look damp or freshly disturbed.

After fixing, go over those places with gloss varnish or a modeling resin for water surfaces. Gloss on its own reads to the eye as moisture.

You do not, but a combination of dark and light soil looks more natural. A single shade over a whole area looks flat and artificial.
