If your mud looks flat, it needs body — and that's exactly what Weathering Plaster Base brings. Stir it into AK's Nature Effects muds, earths and soils to build genuine volume and texture, then trowel, dab or flick it onto a vehicle's underside or across a diorama base. Too thick? Thin it with white spirit. Too thin? Add more plaster. It's a mix-to-taste workhorse that turns thin washes into convincing, clumping ground.

The bulk that makes mud look real. Pair it with the rest of our weathering range to build up ground effects in layers.
