Product overview
AK8023 is a neutral white acrylic gel for modellers who want to create the earth tone themselves rather than begin with a finished colour. Stir in the chosen acrylic colour slowly and in small amounts until the mixture reaches the required tone, then use it on a diorama or vignette base. Its tintable white starting point is what sets this Ground Textures product apart.
- Sold as a single 250 ml jar
- The gel may be laid down in thin or thick applications
- Its consistency can be adjusted using water or an acrylic thinner
- AK describes this product as non-toxic
Notes · Q & A
What is the difference between texture pastes, water effects and resin waters?
Texture pastes are spreadable acrylic products for building ground, snow and similar surfaces in thin or thick layers. Acrylic water effects are self-levelling liquids, while resin waters are two-part epoxies that require resin and hardener to be mixed at a 2:1 ratio.
How thick a layer can I apply?
Ground and snow pastes may be applied in thin or thick layers; crackle textures need a thin layer, with its thickness affecting the crack size. Keep Still Water to 1–2 mm per layer and Puddles to no more than 3 mm, building greater depth through repeated layers.
How long do these textures take to dry?
AK quotes 24 hours for ground textures and resin water, and 2–4 hours for Snow Sprinkles, with drying affected by the amount applied and the ambient temperature. Crackle textures have no stated time, although AK says a hairdryer can speed the process.
Can I thin these products, and what should I use?
The acrylic textures can be diluted with water or acrylic thinner to improve their flow. Two-part resin waters are not thinned with water; mix the resin and hardener at the stated 2:1 ratio.
Can I paint or add pigments after the texture has dried?
The suitable method depends on the product. Still Water can be tinted with acrylic paint, while dry corrosion and ground textures can take pigments to adjust their colour and surface variation.
