This water-based acrylic gel from Vallejo is part of the Model Color Water Effects range, designed specifically for creating realistic water features in models and dioramas. Perfect for simulating rivers, lakes, canals, inlets, oceans, and glaciers, this dense gel can be shaped to form waterfalls, waves, ripples, and shallow water effects like rivulets and white water.

The Still Water variant is a transparent gel formulated with permanent pigments, ideal for achieving calm, glassy water surfaces. It can be mixed with other Water Effects gels or combined with Model Color, Game Color, or Model Air paints to create custom textures and tones. For optimal results, blend with low-viscosity colors such as Model Air or Game Color Inks to adjust transparency and hue.

Apply using a brush, painting knife, sponge, or other tools depending on the desired effect. Drying time varies from 45 minutes to several days, depending on application thickness and ambient humidity. Once dry and protected with a gloss, matte, or satin varnish, the finish can be overpainted with solvent-based enamels or oil colors and withstands cleaning with turpentine or light alcohol washes.

Non-toxic and non-flammable, this 200ml bottle is safe for use in any workspace and adheres exceptionally well to resin, plastic, steel, and white metal. The final appearance is influenced by the underlying ground color, allowing for versatile integration into detailed scenes.
