    I forgot to mention a significant reason why this flocking method is superior to the one I had shown previously: using this method you avoid all the hassle of painting the flocking and running it through a sieve. Quicker, easier, less mess and waste.

    I wonder if dipping the rope into the wash before cutting it would work well, would have to let it dry out again but it might be worth trying.

    Lots of great stuff in this. I note that the flocking, before its hit with a wash, would make pretty good looking straw, as in an animal pen or whatnot. Awesome work. Cheers!

    You should try to tint the hemp rope before cutting it to grass flocking

    • @BardsCraft
      @BardsCraft  3 года назад

      Yes that also works. Might be quicker especially for large batches. However I do still like painting it afterwards because its possible to get different darkness/nuances on the grass. That's of course possible when using several different batches of "pre-painted" flockinh as well.
      Basically, everything works 😄 Thanks for the comment

    I serve the algorithm. Nice work on the flock! I usually have problems getting flock/static grass to stand up after I have applied a wash. Did you experience the same problem here? If so, did you do anything to correct it?

    • @BardsCraft
      @BardsCraft  3 года назад +1

      The grass does not stand up for me due to the way I apply it. However it does remain fluffy. The grass only gets flat if I apply way to much wash. With a static grass applicator I don't believe the grass would get flat from the wash, but I haven't tried it.

      They have stronger pigment and flow very well into textures and cracks. Acrylics work okay as well.

    I usually enjoy your work (and this build is no different!), but what do you mean by "politically incorrect"? That term has a pretty wide meaning these days. I haven't noticed anything particularly egregious from what I've seen of your stuff, at least nothing that I'd think you'd be getting censored or demonetized for.
