Pro Tip: Create varied moss effects by combining different application techniques - stippling for texture, dry-brushing for highlights, and thin washes for subtle tints.
The key is layering and texture. Start with a stippled base layer, then build up using dry-brushing techniques. For added realism, mix in small amounts of other earth tones and vary the application pressure to create natural-looking variations.

Notes · Q & A
What's the difference between a paint and a wash?+
Paints are opaque colour for coverage; washes are thin, pigmented fluids that flow into recesses to add shading and depth. Most painters use both.
Can I use these paints in an airbrush?+
Many acrylics can be thinned for airbrushing — check the product description; ranges marked "Air" or "airbrush-ready" work straight from the bottle.
Do I need a primer?+
Yes for bare plastic, resin or metal — primer gives paint a surface to grip and prevents chipping.
