This really is a new way of applying scenic layers.

Haven't had a chance to watch all of this yet, but it looks great! And Martin looks like he'd be a hoot to hang with. I've been on the verge of buying a static grass applicator for some time, and this likely pushed me over the edge.

Thanks for posting, Chuck!

N/p Jim, yeah he negates the old alcohol mist and glue spray or drip, goes from scenery base of sculptamold, paint, the glue dabs and levels of
dirt, ground cover then the 2m-4m and 6m static grass application, mixed colors.

I had to do a bit of a double take when he spoke the words "flock" and "flocking", lol.   :D

Flocking fibers all over the place. Its almost impossible to get this flocking stuff out of carpets once it gets imbedded.

Fickle flocking fibers far-flung from free-flowing fans fester forever.

Phew!  :trollface:

I am trying this to see how it works, I will let you know if it's a Dutch conspiracy theory.

So his technique works, this is a small area and I was too liberal with grasses. Next section will
be larger and I can replicate it with some openness. I need to paint the grasses too.

I think that piece/diorama you did is a great effort, it looks very realistic to my eye.
