Vallejo Pigments 73121 Desert Dust (35ml)
Brand: Vallejo

Vallejo Pigment FX 73121 Desert Dust (35 ml) is a fine powdered pigment from the Vallejo Pigment FX line in the shade Desert Dust. It is used to simulate dust, clay, soil, dried-on dirt, wear and tear, and realistic dusting on models and dioramas.

Apply it with a dry brush for a subtle dusty effect, or mix it with a fixative or water for thicker applications of mud, soil, and dried-on traces of wear. Always remove excess with a clean, dry brush.

Technical Information and Recommendations

  • Type: fine powder pigment for model patina
  • Volume: 35 ml
  • Uses: dust, soil, rust, soot, smoke, leaves, patina, terrain, and dioramas
  • Dry application: brush, dabbing, rubbing into the surface, and gradual layering
  • Wet application: mix with Pigment Binder 26233 or a small amount of water to achieve the desired consistency
  • Surface: Looks most natural on a matte or soft satin finish
  • Fixation: a fixative or a very light coat of varnish; varnish may darken the pigment and partially alter the final shade
  • Combinations: Wash FX, Weathering FX, and Diorama FX
  • Base colors: Model Color, Model Air, or Surface Primer
  • Tools: model-making brushes

Work with the pigments gradually and in small amounts. Dry application is well-suited for light dusting and evening out the surface, while wet application is better for thicker layers, mud, rust, or deposits. Before final fixation, it’s a good idea to test the result on an inconspicuous area, as both the varnish and the fixative can make the pigment appear darker.
