Dark earth is rich in organic matter, hence its blackish color. Russians call it "chernozem," where "chern(y)" means black and "zemlya" means earth. Perfect for Eastern Front scenarios. Important: True chernozem is nearly black only when wet; when dry, it displays numerous shades of gray and brown! This 4-color blend mimics authentic black earth—the tone appears light when the pigment is applied dry, and dark when mixed with a suitable binder before application. Cool tone.
Recommended techniques: Dusting, capillary action, weathering paint/wash, and paste
