In this video I test out and review various Earth & Ground Texture Pastes by Vallejo. This is an amazing product for adding durable texture instantly to a miniature base. It wont' chip or scratch and I'm really blown away at how easy it is to work with and just how strong it bonds to smooth plastic. This stuff also has some great applications in terrain building, specifically for doing stucco or plaster on tudor style buildings.
Vallejo did not pay for or commission this video but they did send me a bunch of products for free to try out including these texture pastes.

GROUND TEXTURE:

Unfortunately the whole line is not represented on Amazon but they have one of each which is all you really need if you intend on painting the texture. Amazon.ca had such awful pricing I couldn't bring myself to include links. Canadian friends talk to your FLGS to see if they have it or can get it.

I use these a lot for basing my miniatures. They build up very nicely if you allow them to dry fully between layers. Plus a neat trick is to add rocks/cork/skulls/weapons/ballast to your base on top of a layer of these pastes. No need to add glue. By smashing the objects into the paste, you can get a natural look of an object being partially buried in the sand or dirt. I often just sprinkle ballast onto the wet paste in patches to give a less uniform texture to a base. Great product for minis basing.
@ehgrandmachin08
@ehgrandmachin08 5 лет назад
I do the same for my bases. The use of snow texture is just great, you could also use it for sea foam (I used it on Descent elementals to joint water and fire and thus foam, it worked really great)

Hey bud when you say sprinkle "ballast" what is that stuff ? Is it like a small sand for model railroads ? Iv heard it before only 2 times id love to know ! Thanks for sharing !
@thebrewgeek
@thebrewgeek 5 месяцев назад
@@savagex466-qt1io ballast is just a blend of sand and small stones. It's not particularly uniform which makes it look more realistic. You can get a similar effect out of clay cat litter that was been ground up. It gives a range of particle sizes from powder to larger chunks. At 28-30mmscale, it's like sand and medium sized rocks. You can sprinkle it onto the texture paste, but be sure to seal the cat litter afterwards with some thinned PVA glue (or modpodge) or primer/sealer.

I wanted to say Thank-you for the review. I am an HVAC service tech and have been looking for a product like this for over 20 years since Aprilaire stopped selling their version of this type of paint for their Humidifier trays. After a while, the paint in the tray where the water flows through the tray and into the Humidifier Pad wears away and the water then does not flow properly on smooth plastic. This product (Rough Grey Pumice) has the perfect amount of sand mix to allow the water to adhere to the sand to make it travel along the water trays to each water opening. This saves water by utilizing the whole Humidifier Pad and providing better humidification into the home. I estimate that I can paint approximately 10 humidifier trays with one 7 oz container.

@bentosan
@bentosan 5 лет назад
I own the rough white pumice and the dark earth. They are great and super cheap for how much you get and between mixing the two at different ratios do very good rock and ground textures. I use them ALOT, build your rocks with cork then slap a mix over the top and in the gaps for some seriously nice texture. I bought these on the recommendation from Vince Venturella and his incredibly useful hobby cheating video playlist on miniature painting in RU-vid.
@BlackMagicCraftOfficial
@BlackMagicCraftOfficial 5 лет назад
I’m guessing you can get a lot more out of one pot than I initially thought since you can apply so thin.
@bentosan
@bentosan 5 лет назад
Black Magic Craft totally, if you use cork as a base it will go a long way. It also has very interesting texturing properties if you apply it thick over the cork and let it naturally dry over the course a few hours which is good for bases. If your doing diaroma then just applying it thin will still look good and be cost efficient. The only real reason to buy the GW basing pastes would be to buy the crackling ones only and using these for everything else.

Funny thing is, this video is about 3 years old, and I'm only now learning that the product exists. And I only found them because I was trying go find some color match to GW's Ironearth texture paints. I definitely plan to pick some up soon, and I appreciate you laying them all out side by side to see how much texture or grit there is in each, and a review of how durable they are. GW's texture paints are so expensive for what you get, so I had been using sand and glue, but you have to deal with applying the basing and then applying a sealant layer or it flakes so easily. It's good to know this is apply and paint.

It's great stuff. I also use the dark mud (which I love) for a large Stormcast Army, and adding paint to the grey pumice mix makes it virtually indistinguishable in use to the pre colored one. Would definitely recommend picking up one of the specific ground types if you're going to be doing a lot of models in the same basing scheme, but for flexibly the uncolored pumice is absolutely astounding.

This is then primed and painted along with the rest of whatever I put on the base. Their water effect (not the pastes, which I have yet to try but the liquid) mixed with Woodland Scenic "snow" makes a great snow paste that makes awesome snow.

I own a few Vallejo textures and they are solid product like the rest of their lines. Being ready to go, I use it on miniature and vehicle basing. I am a wargame terrain maker and use an eye balled goop recipe for larger terrain pieces and 3'x3' to 8'x4' game boards. It is a mixture of acrylic caulking, PVA, plaster and water. I add paint and textures ( Anything from Santa Cruz beach sand that I have a big tub of to store bought railroad ballast) as the project calls for. It is a really durable surface.

Since they are acryllic based, you can use water to dilute the paste to make it more maleable. You can also mix acryllic paints with the paste to acheive the exact color you want. Vallejo also has a snow-effect and mud-effect paste that are awesome. ETA: clay molding tools (at quick glance they look like dental torture tools) are useful for applying this stuff.

This might be the perfect product for what I have in the works currently. First time making terrain (for my end of campaign in a year-1.5 years away) and I chose to do it out of cardboard because I have an abundance of it and I’m not planning on doing more terrain. Painting the cardboard and the spots that have hot glue have been a concern I’ll have to deal with in the future and this might be perfect to use and then paint over. I’ll have to test and see.

@maximilianoz.5777
@maximilianoz.5777 5 лет назад
I have two tips that I discovered while using these (i have brown earth and snow). First, for building a sort of "big" diorama base (like 20x30cm) getting a proper ground texture could mean using a lot of material. For instance, the small "waves" of dirt, lumps, and so on. For those I use a common napkin with a mix of white glue + wate, i make the small and sharp roughness, and after everyting is dry, I put a light coat of the Vallejo. It saves a lot of the product and you get an awesome texture. The Second tip is, you can use pigments after it's dry. I don't know if it is because of the porosity or the final texture of the paint, but trust me, those pigments ARE NOT GOING TO COME OFF. I made a boo boo once, and not even with my rough handling it could come off... in the end I gave up and put a thicker cover of pigment on top and I managed to hide most of the wrong color.

You can find them and Golden at Michael's or other craft stores. Liquitex is a great brand sure a use those $1 applecrafts too but the Liquitex is always stronger pigment even when I thin it for airbrushing and minis in general

I would suggest trying a combination of mod podge and baking soda, perhaps try it and compare it to the finer texture pastes available through Vallejo (it works quite well for fine sand and is easy to paint on). It would be interesting to see how this or other cheap alternatives (such as sand or sawdust) compare. Great video as always, I've been wondering for a while how these actually hold up! edit: yes I know this is an old video, but it would still be very interesting and I thought it worth mentioning, despite how late I was to the party

I also like using these with Marvel Crisis Protocol which has city street textured plastic bases. It's a great way to turn all or part of that into a natural ground texture instead.

do they all have the same consistency? I nabbed the desert sand one, and it was easy to use, but I'm not entirely sold on the effect. I had to paint and shade it to make it look convincing, and even then it doesn't look like sand at scale, it looks like gravel. I found spackle / dry DAP to be the king of scaled earth, but it's a little more work to sculpt get the mini attached to the base securely, and get just right overall. however the results blow texture paints out of the water in my opinion... assuming they are all like the one i picked up.

I think you might have been using them wrong. I was looking at them and then looked at your review. So anyway, I got a pot from amazon, btw way cheaper then the citadel texture paints, and tried it out last night on a small cave diorama. I did not use it as a paint, but more la a paste that I can sculpt. This morning, it was completely dry and it looked amazing! I was able to build an uneven caver floor, with mini stalagmites. It dried darker then the initial color and could probably just use it like that, however I will paint it to blend more in my décor.I the end, what I liked about it, was the price, and the fact that I could sculpt it. I will switch the that one instead of the overpriced citadel!
@andymckenzie8031

Thinking about the grout... it might work to use sanded grout mix, since that's a LOT cheaper. I just looked it up, and saw premixed at $28 for 157 square feet, and dry mix at $13 for 552 square feet. So buying it pre-mixed is on the order of 3.5 times the cost, and it'll probably dry out before you're done with the container. So if you want something like this for large pieces, I'd go with the dry stuff, and mix it up as you need it.
@BlackMagicCraftOfficial
@BlackMagicCraftOfficial 3 года назад
Dry grout is different. Pre mixed is acrylic based, far more adhesive, and flexible. You can use unmixed dry grout for crafting (unsanded is better) and I’ve done it in a fair bit of videos. But it’s worth knowing that different grouts perform very differently.

Great vid man! Would you recommend the grey sand or the desert sand for a general purpose texture paste? Are they similar or distinguisable?
@BlackMagicCraftOfficial
@BlackMagicCraftOfficial 4 года назад
For general purpose you are going to end up repainting it anyway so it doesn't matter much.

When you were digging through the box there were some small jars. Is Vallejo making paint pots? If those are paints can you review them compared to the dropper bottles? Excellent review of the textures. I'm gonna pick up a couple tubs to try them.

@BlackMagicCraftOfficial 5 лет назад
The other containers you see in the box are their line of weathering effects, not paint. I’ll get to testing those but there are LOTS and they aren’t as straight forward to test.

You can mix paint in or paint after dried.

My first thought was on your stone gollum you made with stones, CA, and baking powder. What if you tried making a wire armature cover with hot glue to build shape and then coat with the rough texture? Seems like it should work, would love to see it if you ever try.

Ρε Δήμο το μάρμαρο δεν έχει κόκκο και αυτές οι αλοιφές σου δίνουν τέτοια υφή. Νομίζω μόνο με χρώματα μπορεί να γίνει.

lol, your absolutely right! that stuff looks like sanded grout, WHICH is much cheaper especially if your buy it in unmixed form like $10 bucks for 25 lbs-cheap (if you needed that much table top game play boards). you can get non sanded to reproduce the earth mud under $20 for 10lbs. im so glad i watched your video on this texture paste from Vallejo, you saved me lots of money!
@BlackMagicCraftOfficial
@BlackMagicCraftOfficial 5 лет назад
No. This is more like ACRYLIC PREMIXED grout...which is NOT cheap. Using dry grout is great for a lot of things and I have a whole video comparing methods for stucco effects that includes dry grout compared to the Vallejo paste. BUT it’s very very different. This product is NOT similar to dry powdered grout.
@schiltz371
@schiltz371 5 лет назад
the only point i was trying to make was the home depot option is a more economical choice with the grout in mind including acrylic version in comparison to Vallejo. of course it depends on size of project too.

Vallejo is selling at $12 per 200ml or 6.67oz. container lowe's has MAPEI Flexcolor (acrylic) grout at $33 for just under 1900ml, or 1/2 gallon container. what seems like a better value to you?
@BlackMagicCraftOfficial
@BlackMagicCraftOfficial 5 лет назад
Well it depends on your location and how much you will use. That Mapei Flexcolor tub where I live only comes in 3.7L tubs for $75. It's also an INSANE amount to buy. I will likely never use up one single small Vallejo container. I'd rather not spend more to have a giant tub that will eventually dry out and get ruined. It doesn't last forever. If you want to use it on a huge board or something a big tub may be worth it. But you have to be using a lot of it, and using it in a short period. For basing minis or small details on buildings, it's a silly investment to buy giant buckets.

I wonder if there is an adhesive in those texture pastes? If there is, could it be used to bond two pieces of terrain while adding a texture to the joint? For example, if you were to join two slabs of rock, one on top of the other as part of a scatter terrain piece.
@BlackMagicCraftOfficial
@BlackMagicCraftOfficial 5 лет назад
Without question there is some sort of *very* good water soluble adhesive in theres. It has to be something stronger than pva with how well it bonds to smooth plastic.
@AdamBragg
@AdamBragg 5 лет назад
@@BlackMagicCraftOfficial Yeah, that's what made me suspect the presence of an adhesive. I'm not sure if there's a use/need for "texture glue", but no doubt someone can cone up with a cool use.

Below someone commented that they mix bigger rubble and plastic bits like skulls right into the past and then paint that on bases....so need to glue the bits on first as the past holds so strong, and this makes the items look more mixed into the ground.
