Tutorial on static grass application

Hi!

Inspired by the thread below, which was started back in 2010, I bought myself a static grass applicator about a year ago and started out by making grass on my layout.
It was easy and fast, but the result was not very realistic. So... I tested, bought new grass and tested. Watched tons of Youtube tutorials, read through forums and made new trials, until the result started to look good.

I made this short video tutorial communicating what I learned so far, so maybe if you´re thinking about start with static grass, this might be a short-cut to a better result from day one.

I know there is that other thread for static grass, but I didn't want to hi-jack it, since it was made a "best-of".
