Add Convincing Dry Grass to Your Model Landscapes

For modellers aiming for realistic ground cover, Tamiya's Diorama Texture Paint in Grass Effect Khaki provides a textured paste with 5mm coloured fibres that resembles dried grass across scale scenes.

How to Prepare and Apply

Apply this texture over a compatible base such as Tamiya soil effect (item 87108) to build a natural foundation. The 100ml bottle supplies enough material to cover an area about the size of a B4 sheet in one coat.

Usage Highlights

  • Color: Khaki
  • Volume: 100ml
  • Application: Use a spatula or an old brush for shaping
  • Mixing: Mix sparingly with other Tamiya acrylics to change hue
  • Cleaning: Water clean up while still wet

This product should not be used with an airbrush as the fibred paste can clog and damage the tool. Its consistency is intended for manual application to sculpt terrain details.

Final Touches and Weathering

After the texture has cured, enrich the surface with enamel washes, selective dry-brushing and subtle highlights to enhance contrast and create a lifelike finish.

Once fully dry the texture is largely water resistant, so clean up stray paste while wet to avoid permanent mistakes.
Yes. After the paste is tacky or dry, you can add static grass tufts or scatter materials with adhesive for extra realism.
Use a matte or satin sealer sparingly; heavy gloss varnish may alter the natural appearance of the fibres, so test on a scrap first.
