Consider other sizes if:
- Small = finer texture, more coverage
- Big = dramatic features, large bases only
🏜️ Versatile Natural Sandstone for Desert Terrain
100ml of medium desert rocks - most versatile size for bases and terrain. Natural tan and brown desert tones. Perfect for 25-40mm bases and general arid scenery. Ready to use.
What do tuft sizes like 2mm, 4mm and 6mm mean?
That's the grass fibre length. 2mm suits small bases and subtle ground cover, 4–6mm reads as fuller vegetation on 28–32mm miniature bases.
Are tufts self-adhesive?
Most modern tufts peel off their sheet with adhesive on the underside — press onto the base, no glue needed. Loose static grass is applied over PVA instead.
How do I apply static grass?
Brush PVA where you want grass, sprinkle or use an applicator, then tip off the excess once dry. An applicator makes fibres stand upright for a more natural look.
