Just a small comment - and I realise it is a personal thing - but the grass looks too green to me especially between tracks ... or is it going to be toned down?

Hi Kenton,

Totally agree.

Trying to show as much work in progress as I can and there is still lots of work to do on the grass including a trim in places and toning down with some weathering.

Plan to get it all down first then judge the colour tones with a few photos in different lighting conditions.

The stuff in the four foot will be toned down with browns & blacks for sure.

It is the 'summer' blend so I expected it to be quite lush & bright and I think in natural light it will look a little more, well, natural !

It just shows how subjective colour perception can be though. Although I've no wish to invalidate Kenton's observations, to me the grass looks quite natural. I do agree that some browns and blacks in the four foot growth will work nicely though.

Dave.

Judging by your superb photos in the past I'm sure it will all look spot on when finished. You're also well on the way to finishing first at this rate??

I'd say the colours not bad - try some 6.5mm winter fibres with a puffer bottle in places to relieve the monotony of the green.
