How to Revamp your Static Grass

Kathy Millatt

Published on Thursday 23 February 2017 by Kathy Millatt

The trouble with modelling is that people keep on inventing newer and better products and you look at what you have already done and think, hmmm. The good news with static grass is that in many instances you can just put another layer on top. That's what I am doing this week with my existing, dull and boring looking grass. Now it looks rich and has depth! The method is very simple, just use layering spray and build up the layers again but there are a couple of tricks, such as adding clumps, which can bring your grass to life. WWS did send me some trial products such as the layering spray but I have since gone out and bought more of their product because I was so impressed.

The "Real" World

It thought this week that instead of the US or UK I'd go with something a little bit more exotic. These are all from my trip to South Africa in 2013 for a friend's wedding. What a beautiful country and such amazing grass of all colours from dead to vivid green to grey. Love it!
