I do like yer mixing of paints. In the past I've tried mixing my own for custom colours but I have also used some greens straight out of the bottle. My foam sponge is also quite yellow. Thanks for posting, mate.

@@tomjenssen7486 Hello Tom. I just made a batch from old foam . Used your mixing ratio and it came old great ! So helpful ! The only problem is there aren't many trees or bushes around a working steel mill. These simple steps have granted my layout more realism. Thank you. When I make a video of my layout I will give full credit to your channel & links.

Thanks very much for the support. I'm building a large layout in my attic and I worked out I'd need a few hundred quid just to buy the bushes..lol. I've been grinding my own foam for a while now but recently I've been working on these colours to bring the quality up to match the leading brands. It's going to save me a small fortune and I really have fun doing it. Thanks again and all the best....Tom

I tried that but I never got the fine turf quality that I needed so I use a grinder to get all the different textures. Here's the ground foam playlist...I hope it helps....Tom kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rNqAerKgmrqqeZc.html

This might be a stupid idea, but have you ever dried weeds or grass clippings and then ground that in a coffee bean grinder for fake grass? Seems like it would be similar in color and texture. Im sure it would fade over time though. I am making a miniature set for a comedy show intro and my project wouldn't need to last.

I've tried to blend grass cuttings to get the colour but, as you say, it fades as soon as it dries. Paint or dye is the way to go....paint being the easiest. Maybe you should try some static grass too? Best of luck with your project and all the best (let me know how it goes) Tom
