Tamiya 87120 Diorama Texture Paint - White Powder Snow Effect  [87120]

Create Realistic Snow Effects with Tamiya Texture Paint

For hobbyists looking to add a touch of winter to their dioramas, Tamiya's Diorama Texture Paint in Powder Snow Effect is a practical choice. This water-based paint is designed to replicate the look of light powder snow, making it ideal for model kits and scale scenes. Packaged in a 100ml bottle, it provides enough coverage for a B4-sized area with a single coat.

Application and Usage Tips

Using Tamiya's Powder Snow Effect paint is straightforward. Due to its paste-like texture and inclusion of marble particles, it's best applied with a spatula or an old paintbrush to avoid damaging new brush bristles. The paint dries within 3-4 hours in summer and 4-5 hours in winter, allowing ample time for adjustments before it sets. Additionally, its water-based formula means it can be easily cleaned with water before drying, and there's no strong odor to worry about during application.

Customization and Compatibility

This paint can be mixed with other Tamiya acrylic paints to create unique colors, expanding your creative possibilities. However, it is not suitable for use with airbrushes, as its texture can cause blockages and damage. The Powder Snow Effect paint is perfect for adding realistic winter elements to your diorama projects, enhancing the overall visual impact without the need for complex techniques.
