Bring oxidised copper and aged bronze to life.
Dirty Down Verdigris Effect is a water-based weathering effect designed to create realistic verdigris and patina on miniatures, terrain and scale models. Perfect for copper roofs, bronze statues, ancient armour, pipes, machinery and arcane constructs.

This effect paint reacts as it dries, creating natural colour variation and texture that mimics real oxidation. Each application is unique.

Key Features

• Creates realistic verdigris and patina effects
• Water-based and non-toxic
• Reacts while drying for natural variation
• Works on miniatures, terrain and dioramas
• Ideal for fantasy, historical and grimdark projects

How to Use

1. Shake very well before use.
2. Apply over a dark metallic basecoat (copper, bronze or brass tones work best).
3. Apply with a brush, sponge or stippling motion.
4. Let the effect react and dry naturally — avoid overworking.
5. For stronger effects, apply additional layers after drying.
6. Seal with a varnish once fully dry to protect the finish.

Tip: Using a damp brush while drying can subtly influence how the verdigris spreads.
