[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by orsonroy Fake fur is the best way to represent large fields of tall grass. It's hard to find good greens though, and painting fake fur usually doesn't work well. I[/quote] You could always buy a light colored fake fur, then get some synthetic green dye (Dye madejust for synthetic materials, not normal Fabric dyes) and dye the Fur to the right shade of green. this would also give you some variation and wouuld almost look real. Hmm..Thanks for the idea, wasn't even thinking of Fur. I've seen Static grass used in some layouts, usually in small sploches, like along the track, or trufs in front of buildings, but never to cover a large area. Hmm...the fur with sporatic Static grass would be a little more realistic, instead of looking like a Mowed lawn, it can look more like a field of grass that's been maintained occasionally. Jay
