VALLEJO Diorama FX Landscape Textures Warm Orange (2–5 mm) – Texture Granules for Scenery

VALLEJO Diorama FX Landscape Textures Warm Orange (2–5 mm) are coarse texture granules formulated for use on dioramas, scale model bases and scenic displays. The 2–5 mm particle size provides a natural-looking ground surface that simulates soil, gravel and fragmented rock. Apply these warm orange granules to enhance the realistic appearance of terrain, pathways and weathered surfaces on model landscapes.

Advantages

These texture granules offer consistent particle size and color for reliable scenic results and simplified basing work. The 2–5 mm fraction balances visibility and realism on a variety of scales, creating convincing depth and shadow without overly dominating small models. The granules bond well when used with common adhesives or scenic mediums, and they accept washes and pigments for additional weathering and tonal variation.

Suitable for

• Basing and ground cover on dioramas and display bases
• Creating gravel, soil and rock textures on scale models
• Enhancing scenic surfaces for military, historical and fantasy scenes
• Weathering effects where textured surfaces are required

Key specifications

• Particle size: 2–5 mm
• Color family: warm orange tones suitable for soil and burnt-earth effects
• Form: dry granular texture for mixing or direct application
• Compatibility: designed for use with common adhesives, scenic glues and mediums
• Intended use: indoor modeling and diorama scenic work

How to use

Surface preparation should ensure the base is clean and dry. Apply a thin, even layer of adhesive or scenic medium to the area where texture is required. While the adhesive remains wet, sprinkle or press the granules into place to achieve the desired coverage and depth. Allow the adhesive to cure fully before removing excess granules. After fixing, consolidate the texture with diluted glue or a clear matte sealant if additional durability is needed. Finish with washes, pigments or drybrushing to integrate the granules into the surrounding scenery and achieve natural tonal variation.

Usage recommendations

For best results, test the granules on a scrap base to determine how much material and which adhesive thickness produce the intended effect. Use diluted PVA or specialized scenic adhesives for strong bonding, and consider sealing finished surfaces with a matte fixer when handling or transporting models.
