Ground Cover Question

Post by cabin4clw »

Hi,

Just wondering about the ground cover that are in some of the pictures that I see on this forum. The cover I'm talking about is the one that looks like strands of grass and not the foam cover. What is it?

Hey!
So not 100% sure which type of ground covering you are refering too but I think you probably are looking at static grass. Its a normal ground covering for larger models (1/35, 1/48, etc.) so it looks to large for normal grass at this scale. However I dod think it looks good for any type of fields with tall grass, be that some sort of agriculture or even steppe. Most hobby stores carry it so it shouldn't be hard to find. Otherwise Woodland Senic has many different ground coverings that work well in 1/285. Not sure if they sell static grass, though.

Hope this helps.

Steve

Look for a couple things "silfor grass" and "silfor mats". That should show you what's out there. Both look great mounted on hexes or tiles.

It might help if you showed us a picture of the type of ground cover you are looking for.

Just go to a post with a picture of something you'd like to be able to do, and push the "QUOTE" button. Copy the link to the picture (the part that starts with Image ) and paste it into a reply in this thread. Then we'll know what you are trying to achieve.
