Splashing sludge Stencils
Reusable metal stencil for adding realistic mud and sludge splash weathering to tanks, vehicles, and military models. Creates the kind of dirty, field-worn look that real combat vehicles accumulate after days of operating in muddy terrain — without the trial and error of freehand mud effects.
The 80×80mm stainless steel pattern delivers natural-looking splash shapes consistently across multiple builds. Works across all common scales: 1/16, 1/24, 1/32, 1/35, 1/48, 1/72, and 1/100.
Works great for:
- Tank and AFV weathering — mud splash on lower hulls, fenders, and tracks
- Truck and supply vehicle weathering — road grime and muddy field operations
- WWII Eastern Front, modern desert, and tropical conflict dioramas
- Diorama base detail — adding splash effects where vehicles meet terrain
- Wargame terrain — weathered vehicle bases for skirmish games
Key features:
- Reusable metal stencil — 80 × 80mm
- Compatible with 1/16 to 1/100 scales
- Stainless steel — clean with water or thinner
- Apply with airbrush, sponge, or hand-paint
How to use:
- Hold the stencil against the area you want to weather (lower hull, fenders, tracks)
- Apply mud-colored paint with an airbrush, sponge, or stippling brush
- Lift the stencil and reposition for natural irregular distribution
- Layer different mud tones (light, medium, dark brown) for depth
- Seal with a matt topcoat once dry
For full vehicle weathering, combine with our paint chipping stencil for surface damage and rain-stained rust streaks for water-driven weathering.
