RealGrass As figure painter modelers, we are always on a quest to find the right material to simulate grass in the right scale and the right texture to achieve most realistic effect. Marco Ganghini, discoverer of this remarkable non-toxic natural material, has now given us "RealGrass". This material can be used for virtually any scale, and can also be used to simulate straw. Material's natural color allows it to be used "as is", but can also be airbrushed or painted. Cutting material to smaller size even allows usage with 1/72 scale modeling products! |
