2020-08-10 09:17:09 +0000 UTCThanks for the advice Daniel! I have 2 lengths right now, 6mm and 3mm, I actually went over the thing with the 6mm first and then filled the rest with 3mm grass, not sure why but the long grass "disappeared" 😁 Maybe mixing them into a random batch? Also, colors. Yeah I suppose when you have a good color it will look good on its own, however if I'd proceed to finish this test piece, I'd definitely paint it with an airbrush (it's a very satisfying process lol). Also big yess on the scatter, I wonder if the sea ball/sea grass could be applied in the same way? I'll have to give it a shot. And you're right, I made the paint mixer mainly because of those Vallejo paints which are sometimes impossible to stir by hand 😁

2020-08-08 12:56:46 +0000 UTCGreat to see you having a go with the new grass applicator. Good results so far but I would urge you to get some different 'grass' Woodland Scenic as well as many others have some all sorts of colours and lengths to mix and match. I think you'll be even happier with something you can adjust to get even better results. I second the suggestion of going over the grassed area with just the empty applicator after a little while to help raise grass even more. I'd also suggest adding small amounts of other scatter materials to your mix to avoid the mown lawn effect you can get when you use only one colour/length of static grass. Also a big shout out on your heavy duty paint mixer from the latest video. I have the same set up and it makes a world of difference in the quality of the paint mixing especially those pesky Vallejo arcylics that love to seperate oh so quickly.
