AMP Colors: Burnt Umber - 22ml

Weathering starts with a good dark brown, and Burnt Umber is the one that does the heavy lifting. It's Occam's go-to for leather, timber, dried mud and grime washes — the colour that sits under almost every scheme without ever being the star of it. AMP Colors gives it real density, so it covers in fewer coats than most.

Best for

• Leather straps, timber and wooden stocks
• Mud, grime and weathering effects
• Shadow basecoats under lighter tan or brown tones

Use it neat for solid coverage or thin it right down for a filter over basework — either way it keeps its warmth rather than turning muddy.

The dark brown every weathering job leans on. Pair it with a basecoating brush and a wet palette for cleaner blending.
