Wilder Weathering Products

As well as doing all things airbrushes Airbrushes.com also stock a selection of paints and other modelling products. One selection is made by a company I have never seen before called Wilder. Wilder do a range of weathering products which seem to be all the rage now.

The first two bottles are an enamel based wash. They are grease and old grease. The grease is a standard greasy brown, and the old grease goes that grungy dark brown/black colour that old grease does have. They are thin to begin with and can be further thinned with any oil based thinner without any hint of pigments showing up as solid.

The weathering oils are just that, oil paint. These are quite thick in the tube and a little will go a long way when you thin them down. They can be thinned with oil based thinner to what ever consistency the modeller wants. Despite heavy thinning there was no trace of pigment coming out of the solution as a sold, and yes they do dry fairly fast as per the packaging. The drying time will vary with your chosen thinner, and how thin you take them.

Conclusion

These are quality products, the pigment is very fine and does not separate out of the weathering oils when they are thinned. The washes are thin and flow very well. Highly recommended based on the samples supplied.
