Water effect

Post by Francisco P. de Nanclares »

I just passed by my local hobby shop to check if the Trumpy Udaloy had finally arrived (and hasn�t :mad_1: ), and noticed some plastic containers labeled "Water effect", and in several shades of blue (Pacific blue, etc). They come from Vallejo. The dealer told me they were just in, and he doesn�t have any experience or input about the final result.

also little containers with "Foam effect", and others.

Does anybody know this stuff?. If so, how good is it?. Easy to work with?.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Pachi...
If you�re looking for some convincing water-effects using that product from Vallejo, which is mainly used by people who likes to do 54mm/1-32 figures, I suggest you search a little more that hobby store you visited. You might get to know someone (another customer??) with experience enough to explain how that stuff works. There is a book from Andreas Miniaturas (FAQ Figuras) which has some explanation, and even some terrific photos.

Pachi,

I tried to find a review of the stuff. This really isn't a review, but the links to each type have a good explanation:
