Abteilung 502 Oil Paint - Raw Umber / Industrial Earth (AKABT007)

Raw Umber is one of the most reached-for colours in modelling worldwide, and once you've used it you'll see why. It darkens light tones and lightens dark ones with equal ease, sitting at the neutral heart of countless washes and filters. If you only owned a handful of oils, this would be one of them — quietly indispensable.

Best for

• Toning down colours that have come out too bright or too clean
• Earthy washes and filters across armour, terrain and bases
• General weathering, grime and dirt build-up
• Muting panel lines and recesses without killing the base colour

Mix it into almost anything and it settles the palette down — the kind of dependable earth tone that quietly ends up in half the mixes on your desk.

A true modelling staple you'll never run short of. Pair it with the wider weathering range or browse the rest of the oil paints for colours to mix it with.
