- In this video we test Dirty Down Verdigris water soluble paint (which you can get hold of here: elementgames.c...) in a range of scenarios to see if it really is a one stop solution to painting verdigris effects on your miniature models and dioramas. Can this one paint give you a super realistic verdigris patina effect?

The Verdigris never fails me now that I have the hang of it. I lay it on thickly over metallic paint, go back over with water to get the pale green streaks I want, then touch back up the underlying bronze/copper with more paint to show where it's "rubbed off" (rather than removing the verdigris effect). Did take a lot of trial and error to get the feel of it, though.
Thanks K Lio. Yes I think it needs more testing.
Super helpful videos, these. Many thanks! I’ll be getting the verdigris, rust, and moss, next time I order from my FLGS 😁
You are very welcome and I'm equally glad you found them useful! Have fun with the Dirty Down Trinity 😁

Thanks Emanuele Di Bona!
Loving the test! For MUCH brighter patina try mixing 50/50 with alcohol or water
Thanks Mark Henry! That is really interesting. What alcohol have you found to work to give a brighter patina? Also did you decant it and then mix before use?
Been having trouble with the verdigris - yours is one of the best videos on it. I love Dirty Down, but yeah it costs about $25 a bottle through most places in the US.
Thanks mate.... but ouch yeah $25 is a lot. Is it cheaper to buy overseas and pay for the shipping?
@@FlyingRavenStudios it can be if you order a bunch of other stuff with it, which I sometimes do. Any excuse to buy more product haha
Could you not knock some off the metallic with a rag? Showing some me of the copper underneath? I just got some so looking forward to trying it. Good solid review my dude 👍
Thanks! Yes, possibly.... I will have to have a play 👍
The verdigris and moss effects have given me real problems. The only thing I've found that works for me is to get a mix the product 1:1 with water before adding it to the model. If I use it straight out the bottle it just dries completely dark. I have to put a satin varnish down first too. Over matte paints it doesn't seem to work. Tricky product to use unfortunately. The rust one is the best of the bunch
Yes I would agree that the moss and vedigris definitely needs more TLC than the rust. I found that temperature is a big factor but I am liking your suggestions. I might have to go back and do some more tests... thanks!
Good luck if you test it out again. Would be interested to hear if you come across any new results.
Verdigris is a waste of money, other brands patinas are just as good, esp Nik Oxide.
That's also on my list to test out! 👍
