drt7uk Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 (edited) I've seen this used on a few layouts on embankments etc and I think it looks great - but what is it called please? It's meant to be folliage / bushes. Want to know what the product is called so I can search for it and buy. I don't mean the static grass of course. Thanks in advance Edited June 14, 2022 by drt7uk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold gwrrob Posted June 14, 2022 RMweb Gold Share Posted June 14, 2022 It looks like clump foliage as sold by Woodland Scenics. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul H Vigor Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 Beyond the commercial product, it's dyed, ground foam. I seem to recall some guys at a show demonstrating how they made their own using a vintage Spong table mincer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium BR60103 Posted June 15, 2022 RMweb Premium Share Posted June 15, 2022 I used to puzzle whether it was called ground foam because it was used to make ground. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamThomas Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 Most of the scenic companies do a version as well as Woodland. Noch, Busch & Heki are worth a look. However, if you want to mak your own dye some spomge foam, freeze it & then experiment with an old (not the prestine one from the kitchen) liquidiser.

Campaman Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 Freeze and then use a standard cheese grater also works OK. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
