Ammo of MIG TEARDROP SPONGE is a specialized modeling tool, designed by the renowned company AMMO by MIG Jimenez. The product belongs to the weathering accessories category and is dedicated to precisely managing aging effects and deposits on models.
Application and Functionality
The primary purpose of the TEARDROP SPONGE is the controlled removal of excess pigments, as well as oil and acrylic washes from model surfaces. Its unique shape and material properties allow for achieving realistic weathering and wear effects. The product is indispensable for creating:
Streaks and runs by carefully wiping away excess washes.
Dust and dirt deposits, enabling precise modulation of their intensity.
Paint chipping or scratching effects, where the sponge can be used for both application and removal.
Smooth blending of pigments and fixing them onto the model surface.
Key Technical Features
The TEARDROP SPONGE stands out with its well-thought-out design, which enhances its effectiveness and ergonomic use for the modeler:
Teardrop Shape: The special shape allows for versatile use. The sharp tip enables precise operations in hard-to-reach areas and the creation of fine details, while the wider base is ideal for working on larger surfaces, ensuring even pressure distribution.
High-Quality Material: Made from a delicate yet durable sponge that effectively absorbs excess media without damaging the paint surface or model details. The material is resistant to solvents commonly used in modeling.
Control and Precision: The sponge provides full control over the removal process, which is crucial for achieving subtle and convincing weathering effects. It allows for layered application and gradual reduction of effect intensity.
Compatibility
The product is fully compatible with a wide range of modeling weathering products, including:
Modeling pigments (dry and fixed).
Enamel and acrylic-based washes.
Oil paints for special effects (e.g., oil dot filtering).
Various types of thinners and pigment fixers.
The Ammo of MIG TEARDROP SPONGE is an indispensable tool for every modeler striving to achieve professional and authentic aging effects on their static models, dioramas, or miniatures.
