Updated on July 2nd, 2025, by Rob Baer with the switch to tubes.
Sick of digging texture paste out of jars with a stick that doubles as your last clean sculpting tool? Good news: Pro Acryl’s new basing texture tubes are here, and they’re the cleanest upgrade your hobby desk didn’t know it needed. Monument Hobbies just made basing faster, easier, and way less messy.
No more dried-up crusty lids. No more wasted product. Just pure basing bliss, straight from a tube. Let’s break down why your miniatures will thank you.
Squeeze It Out!
Monument Hobbies announced they have shifted their Pro Acryl basing textures from tubs into handy squeeze tubes—a smart move that keeps the product fresh and easier to apply. Just squeeze, spread, and boom—your bases look like you actually planned them.
Snag your new Monument goodies from our handpicked list of retailers, and give us a high-five in support! Every qualifying purchase helps Spikey Bits keep the lights on and the fun going.
Grey Earth – Coarse Texture – 120ml: $14
Grey earth coarse texture suits rocky or urban terrain with a grey‑tone look. The coarse grit adds visible depth under paint, ideal for abandoned bases, ruins, or cracked tarmac themes. It lies flat and dries dramatically, yet remains paintable without needing extra primer.
Snow – Ultra Fine Texture – 120ml: $14
Their Pro Acryl Snow ultra‑fine basing texture works beautifully for snowy terrain or frost‑touched fields. The grain is delicate and consistent, giving a realistic snow fluff effect without clumps.
Hobbyists swear by how easy it is to paint and blend right into a frosty base theme.
Brown Earth – Coarse Texture – 120ml: $14
This brown earth coarse texture nails a rugged dirt look. It’s gritty enough to mimic clay and soil but still spreads smoothly from the tube. You can thin it with water to adjust the thickness. Base it, paint it, dry‑brush it—done.
The flexible nature of the coarse brown makes it their go‑to terrain combo .
Application Tips That Work
Apply a base coat if you prefer, then spread the texture directly from the tube with a brush or sculpting tool. While wet, carve footprints, cracks, or other details. After drying, paint with acrylics, highlight with dry‑brushing, and seal for durability.
These textures mix seamlessly with static grass or tufts. Reviewers consistently call them buttery smooth and highly pigmented for coverage and effect.
Final Thoughts From Us
The shift to squeeze tubes makes Pro Acryl basing textures easier than ever. Snow ultra‑fine adds delicate frost, brown earth coarse grounds models in dirty realism, and grey earth coarse suits industrial or rocky setups.
They’re DIY‑friendly, paint‑friendly, and built for serious hobbyists who care about detail. Think of them as a shortcut to a model‑ready battlefield with minimal fuss.
Your bases will look like tabletop masterpieces instead of test samples, and your painting sessions will feel more satisfying than ever.
