Abteilung 502 Oil Paint - Bitume (AKABT004)

Bitume is the tube to reach for when a model needs real depth rather than just a darker line. This near-black, transparent brown sinks convincingly into panel lines and recesses, deepens shadows without flattening the colour underneath, and pools naturally in the low, dimly lit spots that give a model weight and structure. A small amount covers a lot of ground, and the long open time keeps every application under control. Best for Panel lines, recesses and structural detail Deepening dark colours in shadow without deadening them Oil staining and grime pooling on undersides and engine decks It's the quiet workhorse of a shading kit — unshowy on its own, but everything around it reads better for having it there. Depth and shadow in a single tube. Build out your palette with more from the Abteilung 502 collection.
