Vallejo Pigments - Burnt Umber

Burnt Umber is the deep, dark brown that anchors any weathering scheme — the shade of old mud, damp soil and shadowed grime. This ultra-fine Vallejo pigment dusts on dry for subtle earthy depth, or fixes with thinner and binder to build up caked dirt in recesses and around running gear. It's the workhorse brown you'll reach for on almost every muddy, dusty or well-worn model.
