@Bishop Cedric i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site on google and Im waiting for the hacking stuff atm. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
70% of airbrush and model colours I use are vallejo and mig ammo. Both amazing companies both great people and really know there stuff highly recommend.
Hello MrFun, you can use water or our thinner. Mineral Spirit is too strong for any water-based acrylics, so you would harm the paintjob if you use it. You can use them with water (the easiest and safest option) and you will also avoid strong odors :)
Do you have any tips for using these on miniatures? I have a Space Marine model that want dried mars dust on the boots, and so I applied Burnt Umber to the lower legs. After using the capilary method to seal it with your Pigment Binder it turned from a beautiful mahogany brown color to nearly black, and the effect is gone. Should I use the airbrush thinner instead of the binder, or should I mix the pigments with one of the two mediums/sealers on my palatte before applying it to the model?
Thank you for posting this - I am a loyal Vallejo user (only paint I use). I had a question if I may: If I apply say, a white or light gray pigment using the dry method around panel edges on a model plane, will the pigment remain in place when I apply my clear coat sealer (Mr. Hobby gloss first and then matt). I tried this with pastels once but the sealer turned my pastel weathering into gunk. Wondering if it will be the same with these pigments?
What sort of base is it best to put these on? One that’s glossed/matte or direct onto paint? Does it matter if, say, laying down thinner & pigments straight onto a base that’s painted with enamels?
Can you clear coat over pigments without it turning into an orange mush. I've done a rather big model with loads of pigments, can i seal it in. Thanks.
I believe so, it all depends on its evaporation rate. Solvents like airbrush thinner or the binder will evaporate quicker than water, so you''ll get a faster result.
Hi, So I have some Vallejo pigments, I like to make a wash with them ( rust pigment + water, then paint The model) but I have noticed that I get a weird ”crust” on top of The wash (The ”crust” is see through, almost like plastic), is There a way to make The wash without a ”crust” (using water) or do I need to use thinner?
Can Vallejo airbrush thinner be used to fix homemade iron oxide rust on a car model, using the same techniques as shown in the diorama base pigment demonstration in this video? Could I brush Vallejo airbrush thinner directly on my model kit, and then sprinkle the iron oxide on top of it, would it stay fixed?
Hello Vladimir. Vallejo Airbrush Thinner is recommended to thin and fix our Pigments range, so it may work, but cannot be guaranteed, since it is design for acrylic products. It is better if you mix the thinner on a palette, and then apply it on the model. Otherwise the thinner could put de base color on your model away. You can give it a try and tell us the result 😉. Regards!
Not really, if you already fix them with binder or water once dry they are already fixed. Although if it is a model for wargaming I would still use varnish on top.
@@someduckwithanultimax6549 I thought the same thing, but I thought perhaps it could be compensated by holding the can far back. And lightly misting it.
Hello Daniil, you can use the pigments in a "dry or wet" method. In the wet one you can use binder, water or thinner :) We show you the options and then you decide what to use depending on your needs :)
Hi, Let's see what we can do. In any case, here you have a link to download step by step instructions about Environment Effects. cdn.acrylicosvallejo.com/a5e1765a0b2866a43515fa72d6f82c0f/environment-stepbystep-EN.pdf Hope you can find it useful!
G'day Vallejo, your products are outstanding. It is now much easier to achieve accuracy in all scales, depending on how much or how little one uses. I like the versatility of being able to use more than one product to seal, mix or enhance the pigments. It means if you're run out of one product you can still keep working on your model or diorama. I mostly do aircraft models and only a few armour subjects but now, when I do a tank, an AFV or a truck etc. the finished model looks way better by using your products; much better looking than models I made before I discovered your pigments, etc. Thank you very much. Cheers, Bill H.
Hello Bill!✨ Wow, comments like yours really makes our day! Thank you so much for such great feedback 😊 We're so happy to know that your painting is even better with our colors and references. Don't forget to always count on us in case you need help or assistance with our paints and products. We're just a mail away! Have a nice day! ❤
Wow. I'm fairly decent at bases and terrain but could never get the ultra realism. Now I know how. I just bought some pigments but will need some fixer as I already have ideas to add pigments to terrain I made previously :) Thanks for the video
Hello! Please, keep in mind that our pigments applied on DRY MODE will almost disappear so use varnish before apply them. If you want to use the pigments on WET MODE, thin them with water or thinner or use PIGMENT BINDER. They will stay in place forever :)
I was unsure about Vallejo paints and pigments whether its high quality or not. But this proves that your products are fantastic, and I’m going to buy them.
Hi please help me, when I put the pigments on it looks, great but as soon as I put the thinner on to fix it it all runs and looks a mess, looses the dusty look, can you tell me what I'm doing wrong please.
Hello Cheifa! What about this one? This pigment set is perfect for that purpose :) Take a look at it here ✨ acrylicosvallejo.com/en/product/hobby/sets/pigments-sets-en/dust-and-dirt-73190/

Thanks for the tips and the fact you put it in simple terms to understand the methodology for us modelers just getting into it.
Great video - the different ways of using pigments really bring these vignettes alive.
THANK YOU!!! I'm going to try this with a model today.
Great job on the video, instruction along with visual of you doing helped me A LOT.. Thanks

i am curious.. how did you do the water coming out of those pipes? that looks AMAZING.
Wonderful! Such a great idea with the plastic containers too. Can you use mineral spirits or water instead of the thinner?
Hello MrFun, you can use water or our thinner. Mineral Spirit is too strong for any water-based acrylics, so you would harm the paintjob if you use it. You can use them with water (the easiest and safest option) and you will also avoid strong odors :)

Hello! A painter found the song some time ago, this is the video you can visit and listen to it th-cam.com/video/F5agVB7mFjg/w-d-xo.html :)
Can you tell me how the hedge was made? It looks really great. Thanks
another tip is that you can get some slightly dampened metallic pigment and rub it onto your model with a q-tip for a burnished metal effect
Thanks for your suggestion, Linkkicksu! ;)
What sort of base is it best to put these on? One that’s glossed/matte or direct onto paint? Does it matter if, say, laying down thinner & pigments straight onto a base that’s painted with enamels?
Can you clear coat over pigments without it turning into an orange mush. I've done a rather big model with loads of pigments, can i seal it in. Thanks.
What do you think about pigment binder from vallejo?
AMAZING!!!
That's all well and good but what about painting the 'cement/sidewalk' look? That's what I came here for...
So water can replace the binder/thinner/wash?
I believe so, it all depends on its evaporation rate. Solvents like airbrush thinner or the binder will evaporate quicker than water, so you''ll get a faster result.

Is it recommended to wear a mask while working with these pigments? Are the pigments toxic?
No, they are not toxic :)
Once dry, do pigments need to be top coated to stop them coming back off?
Not really, if you already fix them with binder or water once dry they are already fixed. Although if it is a model for wargaming I would still use varnish on top.
Is it also possible to use the pigments by brushing your effects onto the model kit, and then simply sealing it with a spray, like rattlecan dullcote?
Theoretically perhaps but in practice I find the pigments to largely get blown away by a rattlecan/airbrush
@@someduckwithanultimax6549 I thought the same thing, but I thought perhaps it could be compensated by holding the can far back. And lightly misting it.
This is a good video, but I don't understand where you used the water, because I don’t see when you used it, but I could see a jar of water. 🤔🤔

I prefer real dust and dirt. The pigments look more like wet mud than dust, if you use a bit too much fixer or liquid.
You can use them without binder or thinner too :)
The music. We must know

At 2:38, I feel like a cheap mini spray bottle would help
The techniques are astounding but the sound track is terrible.
thank you for your feedback!
Freaky choice of "music"
Pastel are a better alternative than these pigments you get a wide range of colours for the price of one of them bottles. Don't believe th hype
Ummm... isn't the Pigment Binder just diluted white glue?
Hello! No, the white glue leaves an undesirable glossy finish that you can avoid using our Binder :)
After watching this, I'm going to hit buy on a whole lot of VJ Pigment.

So no need top varnish? Just vallejo thinner will keep them in place? Im gonna try this on my 1/35 tank create mud like in trucks and hull.
Hello! Please, keep in mind that our pigments applied on DRY MODE will almost disappear so use varnish before apply them. If you want to use the pigments on WET MODE, thin them with water or thinner or use PIGMENT BINDER. They will stay in place forever :)
Would be handy to know which pigment colours were mixed together for the wheels
Did u ever find out?

Hello Mark, PVA glue leaves a rubbery shiny finish when dried that our pigment binder doesn't. 💪🏻💪🏻

Where did you get the leaves at 1:30? those bushes are beautiful and would look good at camo on my German tanks.
I dont know if this was featured in the video or not but for using water, would using water be the same as using the thinner?

Our Still Water reference 😊 Apply it on a flat surface and let it dry, peel it, cut and model it and youre good to go! :)
Can I use airbrush cleaner instead of airbrush thinner?
The best option is to use thinner or our Pigment Binder to fix the pigment securely. Cleaner is formulated just for the airbrush cleaning process.
